Special weights require special castors: When enormous scaffolding, huge overhead cranes or extremely heavy pallet trucks have to be moved, powerful performance is required without compromising precision and safety.
Heavy-duty wheels from TENTE
When it comes to transporting particularly heavy loads or coping with higher travel speeds, special wheels are required. TENTE’s heavy-duty wheels are sturdily built and can withstand even heavy loads of several tonnes.
How does the static load capacity affect castors and wheels?
The static load capacity applies when transport equipment is not moved or is rarely moved. It represents the load that the castors and wheels can withstand under uniform distribution of the load.
How does the tread influence the behaviour of the wheel?
A wheel consists of three parts – the wheel bearing with axle material, the wheel centre and the tread.
How is the dynamic load capacity calculated?
The dynamic load capacity plays an important role for transport equipment. It represents the maximum permissible load that a castor or wheel can withstand when repeatedly in motion over a long period of time.
How is the load capacity of castors and wheels calculated?
When purchasing castors and wheels, the required load capacity must be taken into account. This represents the permissible load that the castors or wheels can withstand.
