How to Choose the Best Forklift Load and Drive Wheels

Application Domain

Reach truck drive wheels

Reach trucks, unlike other types of material handling equipment, can use a larger load wheel. The larger diameter also makes it easier for the wheel to roll over debris, reducing .or eliminating the cause of flat spots.Perhaps you require experienced technology to answer your question.

Wheel drive pallet trucks

Pallet jack load wheels typically wear into a cone shape, with the most worn edge closest to the outside of the forks. Coning is a type of wear that is caused by frequent, tight turns.Coning is best avoided by using load wheels that have been divided into sections. This allows the load wheel's outer portion to spin faster than the inner portion during a turn, reducing cone-shaped wear.

Different Types of Forklift Drive Wheels

Rubber wheels benefits include a smooth ride and good traction on a variety of floors.

CONS: The soft compound allows for more heat buildup in applications that are constantly moving.

Polyurethane drive wheels (a smooth poly tire with diagonal razor cuts in the traction surface) (a smooth poly tire with diagonal razor cuts in the traction surface)

PROS: Improved traction in wet conditions compared to smooth poly tires, while retaining heat resistance benefits

CONS: If driven on a dry or abrasive floor, razor cuts in the poly material reduce tire life.
