What factors are related to the load-bearing capacity of polyurethane casters?

Although silent casters are quite popular in the life industry. But in the occasion of industrial production, it is not optimistic. This is because the friction coefficient of the surface of the silent caster wheel and the ground is large and the contact area is large, which often makes it difficult to push when the load is high. In other words, the load-bearing capacity of the silent casters is limited. The selection of the bracket is relatively simple, it needs to consider the load conditions that can be achieved by industrial industrial casters.
If it is in a relatively flat working environment and the weight is lighter, you can choose a light-weight plated bracket. But if the things that need to be handled are heavy, then generally choose the thick cast iron or the like as the bracket. The main material of general industrial industrial casters is on the wheels and brackets.

The so-called silent casters refer to soft casters with elasticity, such as rubber casters, synthetic rubber casters, polyurethane casters, etc. The advantages of this large caster are low noise and high user experience. The use of silent casters in public places is extensive, such as supermarkets and shopping malls. In summary, customers should buy casters according to their own needs, rather than blindly thinking that silent casters are equal to perfect, especially in the industrial industry, the choice of silent casters should be careful.
A lot of research data shows that water and oxygen are the main causes of industrial caster rust. In a humid environment, water volatilization in the air will chemically react with the appearance of industrial casters to form an oxide film, commonly known as caster rust. Castor rust appears brownish red, with low density, large volume, and easy to fall off. If not handled in time, the entire industrial caster may rust and become crispy.
There are other industrial caster materials mentioned above, which are selected according to different use environments, and their respective advantages and disadvantages are also reflected in these places. In addition, those industrial casters that have been rusted should be maintained in time. It is better to wipe it off with a paper towel and store it in a dry place for a period of time, then paint it and put it back into use.
