This robust 4.40D-8 steel rim is specially designed for industrial applications as well as garden and municipal machinery. Thanks to the ball bearing seat and a hub length of 75 mm, it is ideal for building durable wheels on trailers, transport carts, sweepers, lawn and garden equipment, and various material-handling devices. The two-piece design facilitates mounting and maintenance, while the red paint ensures good visibility and corrosion protection.

Benefits and applications

This 4.40D-8 steel rim is designed for tough everyday use. The ET0 offset provides a neutral track, which is particularly beneficial for trailers, carts and machines with narrow track guidance. The precisely machined ball bearing seat with different dimensions on the valve and opposite side allows for an accurate fit of common ball bearing sizes and ensures smooth running.

The two-piece design makes mounting and demounting the tyre easier, especially for solid rubber or pneumatic tyres with high stiffness. The steel material offers high stability and resistance to impacts and point loads, as frequently encountered in industrial and garden environments. The red coating makes the rim highly visible and additionally protects it against corrosion, extending its service life.

Typical fields of application are:

• Transport and industrial trailers
• Hand trucks and platform trolleys
• Sweeping and cleaning machines
• Lawn, garden and municipal equipment
• Other machines with ball-bearing hub mounts

Explanation of technical terms

• Inch size: Indicates the rim diameter in inches (1 inch = 25.4 mm). Here: 8 inch.
• Offset (ET): Distance between the centre of the rim and the contact surface of the rim on the hub. ET0 means that the contact surface lies exactly in the middle of the rim width.
• Ball bearing seat: Specially shaped seating areas in the rim for precise mounting of ball bearings.
• Hub length (NL): Total length of the hub mount, here 75 mm, important for the fit on the vehicle or machine.
• Hub dimension: Dimension of the hub mount (diameter and width), here 60x55, for checking compatibility with axle and bearing.
