RUEDAS ALEX IS ENLARGING ITS CATALOGUE WITH NEW HIGH TEMPERATURE CASTORS
Nowadays, there are multiple businesses that work in extreme environments and need to use high temperature wheels to facilitate the movement of machinery, cars and transport platforms. Examples of such activities include food factories, bakeries, furnaces, smelters, metallurgy and the healthcare sector.
In working conditions were the temperatures are high, the resistance of the components and materials of the industrial wheels used, is crucial to ensure efficient mobility: at Ruedas Alex, they are well aware of that, and that is why they have increased their range of high temperature castors.
When deciding on a heat resistant wheel, it is important to have in mind the following factors so it perfectly meets your mobility needs: working temperature (the castor should withstand at least 200ºC), wheel material (for example extra strong resin), load capacity, ease of movement, noise during travelling and ground protection.
You will find below the differences between three Ruedas Alex models suitable for work under high temperature environments:
It is a reinforced resin wheel able to withstand temperatures up to 200ºC. It is very resistant, as it can work with loads of up to 400 Kg per castor with no problem. Hardness is 75º shore D. This wheel offers an excellent rolling and a great manoeuvrability.
Ruedas Alex’s ZV-TT is made of a resin able to withstand temperatures up to 280ºC in 30 minutes intervals. It can take loads up to 125 Kg per wheel and hardness is 90º shore D. This wheel ensures ease of movements with no force required.
Unlike the previous high temperature wheels, the ZV-THG series is made of special black rubber that can withstand up to 250ºC in 30 minutes intervals. As it is made of rubber, it offers a maximum floor protection and is noiseless. Hardness for this model is 80º shore A.
The Spanish company will continue to enlarge its range of high temperature castors in order to offer a much wider catalogue that currently has more than 4.000 references.
