V-Grooved Track Wheel Casters |
|
Running V-Grooved Wheels on inverted angle iron track is a popular and low-cost method of taking loads off the floor and creating production-line flow. A relief groove in the “V” assures proper weight distribution and makes wheel and track “self-cleaning”, while a partial flat-tread also permits rolling the wheels directly on floors.
Utilizing the V-Grooved Wheels, the swivel and rigid casters offered cover a wide range of popular mounting plates, overall heights and capacities. To avoid the necessity for perfectly parallel tracks, directional control can be achieved by using a single track on one side
only, and running flat-tread wheels of matching height on the opposite side.
At Hamilton, we welcome custom designed v-grooved casters. We commonly manufacture custom v-grooved casters with special materials, heights, mounting plates, wheel sizes, special bearings or bores with keyways to meet the unique requirements for your specific application. |
