Thermoplastic wheels (TPE)
High-performance TPE wheels for flexible applications
The new tread material TPE offers outstanding properties for almost all areas of application. The three letters TPE stand for thermoplastic elastomer. Where conventional rubber wheels have been in use up to now, wheels or directly complete castors made of TPE are being used more and more frequently. In all sectors where the goods to be transported are moved a lot - from industry to logistics - the new material scores points, even with heavy goods. In addition, the practical wheels also have other convincing properties and are already indispensable in many companies.
TPE tyres under detailed consideration
TPE castors are made of the almost optimal bandage material for a better working environment. Employees appreciate the super-quiet castors because they make the acoustics in the work area pleasantly quiet. In addition, the low rolling resistance and easy manoeuvrability of the castors minimise the use of force and avoid annoying "juggling" with the transport units. Thermoplastic wheels thus offer unique comfort in combination with ease of work and provide a performance increase in the transport process all along the line. In the meantime, more and more companies and manufacturing plants are turning to the high-performance and flexible TPE wheels and are thus benefiting immensely from the improved workflow and optimised working environments. It is worthwhile for most companies to switch to the new technology in the course of modernisations and renovations and to take advantage of the material. You can find complete TPE castors in many designs here.
The thermoplastic wheels and castors score in all applications with convincing arguments:
The particularly resilient and flexible material ensures that the wheels can be used for a very wide range of applications. Especially in areas with public traffic, the different castors can shine. Not only acoustically because of their low noise level, but also visually, because we offer the wheels with a modern and elegant "5-spoke" rim design. The low rolling resistance and high manoeuvrability of the wheels not only permit particularly flexible applications, but also protect your employees when working with the wheels or the means of transport. The matching TPE castor allows you to improve processes in a targeted manner and benefit from higher productivity and less strain on your employees.
High load capacity and perfect manoeuvrability of the TPE wheel
Thanks to their high flexibility, the wheels made of thermoplastic elastomer are convincing in a wide variety of applications. The load capacity of TPE wheels with plain bearings, roller bearings or ball bearings is 40-220 kg per wheel. The robust material is a new comfort dimension because it saves force when pushing and pulling. The castors can be pushed with optimum force, run comfortably for a long time and the pushing force is transmitted excellently. The high driving comfort absorbs vibrations and in this way protects both man and goods. Goods guided on thermoplastic elastomer rollers can be easily steered, even with large loads and high loads. They have low resistance when starting, rolling and swivelling. This greatly facilitates work in a wide range of applications. Particularly with only a small manoeuvring area, you benefit significantly from the excellent rolling properties of the wheels and can save valuable time and money.
TPE wheels and TPE castors are non-marking and abrasion-resistant
Thanks to the thermoplastic elastomer, the wheels and castors leave no steering marks on the various floors due to material abrasion. Thanks to the use of modern, high-performance thermoplastic wheels, traces on the floor are a thing of the past.
TPE wheels are particularly quiet and can therefore be used flexibly
Thermoplastic wheels are extremely quiet, especially when there is a large volume of transport or when the environment is very quiet. The whispering wheels are loved by employees because they protect their hearing. They bring new pleasant acoustics to halls and rooms and significantly reduce noise levels. The strain on the employees, but also their performance, is significantly improved by the use of modern tyres. By using TPE wheels, you make an active contribution to health and safety at work and ensure greater working comfort for your employees.
