Tyred Wheels

Tyred wheels are used with castors to absorb shock, roll over small objects and minimise vibration. They come in a variety of sizes and are made from durable materials for longer life and improved wear.

Types of tyred wheels

Tyred wheels are available in a range of hardwearing materials such as rubber, polyurethane (PUR), polyamide and polypropylene. Polyurethane tyred wheels are widely used because of their very high load capacity and resistance to abrasion and tears. They're chemically resistant, making them suitable for use in hazardous environments. Solid rubber tyred wheels provide a smooth ride and quiet handling combined with excellent age resistance.

Why use tyred wheels?

Tyred wheels have an elasticity that is particularly suitable for high loads and capacities. They give a cushioned ride, making manual trucking easier. Being puncture proof, they're ideal for heavy duty applications and will work well on difficult, rough or uneven surfaces like grass and gravel. A tyre with closed-cell construction will not absorb water, freeze or crack, making it ideal for extreme conditions, with no need for re-inflation.
