Forklifts are key equipment to improve work efficiency in the field of material handling. As the only part of the forklift that is in contact with the ground, the material performance of the forklift wheels directly affects the operating efficiency and service life of the forklift. vulkollan forklift wheel, with its excellent high elasticity properties, is leading a revolution in industrial forklift wheels.

Vulkollan Elastomer Material

Vulkollan polyurethane elastomer was developed by Bayer in Germany in the 1950s, which is is a prepolymer synthesized manufactured from polyester polyol and naphthalene diisocyanate (NDI) under certain process conditions. Then mixing it with butanediol to undergo a cross-linking reaction. The proportions of the three components can produce elastomer materials with different performance levels.

Vulkollan Forklift Wheel Property

 • Excellent wear resistance

 • Superb mechanical load capacity and dynamic performance

 • Vulkollan solid material wheel

Vulkollan Forklift Wheel Advantage

The excellent performance of vulkollan forklift wheel exceeds that of general rubber forklift wheels and steel forklift wheels. Under the same size, the load-bearing capacity of polyurethane solid tires is about 7 times that of natural rubber, and its service life is much longer than ordinary rubber tires or steel wheels. At the same time, it is full of high stability, short production cycle, high production efficiency and few product defects.

Vulkollan Forklift Wheel Applications

Vulkollan wheels can be widely used in material handing fields such as logistics transportation systems, electric forklifts, and mining machinery. Especially in the application of logistics transportation systems represented by forklift production lines, they have an irreplaceable position.The vulkollan elastomer is resistant to different environments, such as chemicals, solvents, and even water. Compared to harder wheels such as nylon wheels, vulkollan wheels will deflect and create a larger footprint, thereby reducing stress concentration on the floor and improving ground protection.
