Lightweight Rubber Wheels
Nylon or aluminum cores make these wheels lighter and more corrosion resistant than iron-core wheels without sacrificing capacity. They have a soft rubber tread that is shock absorbing and provides good traction on rough surfaces.
Roller bearings provide smooth rolling. Ball bearings are the easiest to roll.
Sealed bearings are completely sealed for the best protection against dust and debris.

Cut-to-Width Polyurethane Wheels
Make your own wheels by cutting these wheel blanks to size with a band saw. They're easy to machine so you can create V-groove and flanged wheels, as well as conveyor rollers and pulleys. Wheels are polyurethane, which combines the abrasion resistance of plastic with the shock-absorbing qualities of rubber. They have a core that is harder than the tread, balancing strength with cushioning. Use them on smooth or rough floors and in areas with debris.
Note: Do not cut with a circular saw.

Wheel Bearings
Replace worn or damaged wheel bearings to keep your equipment rolling. Use flanged bearings and ball bearings in pairs. Change the axle diameter with wheel reducer bushings (sold separately).
Note: Not for use in towing applications.
For impact-resistant tapered roller bearings, as well as other bearing materials and sizes, please see Ball and Roller Bearings and Sleeve Bearings. Roller bearings provide smooth rolling.
Retaining washers hold roller bearings in place.
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
Wheel Reducer Bushings
Reduce the inside diameter of a bearing to fit a particular axle size. Also known as spanner bushings, they also reduce wear on the axle when used in plain bores and with straight roller bearings. All have a hole for lubrication.
Washers slide over the bushing and add 3/32" to the hub length of your wheel. Multiple washers can be used to match the length of the bushing.
