The most extensive selection of V-groove wheels and flanged wheels in the industry Loads are lifted off the floor, allowing for increased capacity, simpler rolling, floor protection, and controlled flow all at once. V-groove wheels are caster wheels with a “V”-shaped groove on the outside diameter, which is usually a radius or flat. Depending on the application, V-groove wheels can be used singly or as a whole caster. What is the role of the V groove? V-groove wheels, in theory, are intended to steer equipment by rolling on inverted-angle iron tracks or circular iron bars. When groove wheels are utilised on a level surface, the caster becomes a standard wheel caster. Raising the track reduces issues caused by floor debris. The relief groove at the base of the “V” balances the load on each angle face.
Forged Steel V-groove caster wheels are ideal for frequent use because they reduce wear on the V-groove sides. While not in use on a track, the substantial wheel tread on each side of the V groove enables use on smooth floors. It is critical that if many tracks are used, they are parallel, straight, and level. Otherwise, V-groove wheels may become entangled or run up and over the track. V groove wheels are composed of cast iron or nylon and are intended for heavy loads. A relieving groove in the “V” ensures optimum weight distribution and enables the wheels and track to “self-clean,” while a partial flat tread allows the wheels to be rolled directly on floors. For optimum capacity and performance, all cast iron and forged steel models come with plain bore or straight roller bearings, while certain versions come with precision tapered roller bearings. Because tapered bearings do not allow for end play, they must be used with parallel track. It is preferable to utilise a single-angle iron track parallel to a raised flat bed for V-groove caster wheels. Raw material handling, huge railing doors, hoist trolleys, and conveyer trucks all benefit from V-groove wheels. V-groove wheels are made of ductile steel, machined steel, metal, stainless steel, grey iron, glass-filled nylon, and polyurethane, and the most common wheel diameters are 4″, 5″, 6″, and 8″. Except in a few situations, which have a hardened “as cast” tread, all wheels are standard with a CNC-machine finished face and flange.
