High Speed Wheels

Wheels used for extremely dynamic applications such as roller coaster rides, theme park rides, intra-logistic applications, industrial conveyor belts and lifts are required to operate at very high speeds.  Under intense conditions you want to ensure your wheel does not jam or fracture under pressure so choosing the right tread material is vital for safety.

At TEP Technica we offer a wide array of wheels to suit a variety of industrial and commercial applications. Our technical advisors are on hand to offer advice on product identification.  To help get you started use our guide to identify the most suitable tread for your application.

WHEEL REQUIREMENT: HIGH SPEED

Suitable for: Roller Coasters, Amusement Parks, Conveyor Systems, Mining Conveyors, Intra-Logistic Applications, Distribution Centres

Wheels For High Speeds

When selecting wheels or castors for high speed applications it is important to ensure consistent strength and ease of movement, our guide will help identify which wheel is suitable for your conditions. There are a number of factors to consider such as low rolling resistance, high load endurance, smooth ride performance, high durability.

Pevodyn

PEVODYN® is a new high-quality polyurethane elastomer which we have developed, to offer a significantly reduced starting and rolling resistance as well as high dynamic load capacity. The material is therefore particularly suitable for intra-logistic applications. Thanks to its hydrolysis resistance, PEVODYN® is perfectly suited for use in tropical climates.

Vulkollan 95 Shore A

VULKOLLAN® 95° Shore A is a highly elastic polyurethane elastomer based on Desmodur® 15 for demanding and dynamic areas of application. The excellent mechanical properties of the material include very high dynamic load capacity, very high abrasion resistance and tear growth resistance, very high mechanical wear resistance and very low compression set. We recommend VULKOLLAN® 95° Shore A for use in the transport of very heavy loads and at high speeds.

Vulkodyn

VULKODYN® is a highly elastic polyurethane elastomer which we have developed for extremely dynamic applications. The material has excellent properties such as approximately 20% lower rolling resistance, higher load capacity at the same
speeds, better driving comfort thanks to good damping, lower risk of flat spots during stoppages, hydrolysis resistance and better traction. VULKODYN® is therefore particularly suited for use at high speeds.
