Wheel of Rail Cart

Wheel diameter: 250mm-900mm

Material: Cast steel/forged

Advantages: high hardness, high strength, high wear resistance, strong bearing capacity, compact structure

Scope of application: Used for large cranes, Rail transfer carts, walking devices

Rail cart wheels (crane wheels) are the key components used to support and move the crane girder. They are responsible for rolling on the track to enable the crane to move within the work area. The following is a brief introduction to some crane wheels:

Wheel type: Rail cart wheels are usually divided into two types of steel wheels and polyurethane wheels. The steel wheel is suitable for relatively flat track surface, while the polyurethane wheel has lower requirements for the track and has better damping performance.

Braking system: Rail transfer cart wheels are usually equipped with a braking system to ensure that the wheels can be stopped and locked if needed. This helps improve the safety and accuracy of the crane.

Track adaptability: Wheel design takes into account the type and condition of the track. Some wheels are suitable for a specific model or manufacturer's track, while other designs can be adapted for a wider range of track types.

Carrying capacity: The carrying capacity of the travelling wheel refers to the load it can support. This parameter is an important factor to consider when selecting the appropriate railcar wheel to ensure that it can meet the actual lifting needs.

Maintenance requirements: The wheel usually requires regular maintenance, including lubrication, cleaning and inspection of bearings. The quality and frequency of maintenance will directly affect the life and performance of the walking wheel.

Dustproof and anti-corrosion coating: Because the walking wheel is in a harsh industrial environment, some designs will consider dustproof and anti-corrosion characteristics to extend the service life of the wheel
