VLE – Wheel and caster series
Heavy duty wheels and casters with super-elastic solid rubber tires and a pressed steel rim
In the VLE series, tires made from super-elastic solid rubber are bolted together with pressed steel rim sections. The super-elastic solid rubber tire has a hardness of 70 Shore A and consists of two or three different components, depending on the wheel diameter.
The tough rubber compound used for the rubber core makes sure that the tire remains stable on the rim, even under heavy loads. The highly elastic damping ring keeps the temperature of the tire low at high speeds, while the abrasion-resistant tread protects the tire against external damage and ensures that it remains in service for a long time. The tires are available with a ribbed or zig-zag profile.
The VLE series is puncture-proof, maintenance-free and available as a hub fitting wheel VLEA series.
