Transwheel Powered Conveyor Wheel
2" Lightweight Multi-directional Wheel with integral sprocket
Transwheel's unique design has eight free-turning rollers placed around the Transwheel periphery, combine this movement with the rotation of the wheel body and you have the ability to move loads in any direction. This conveyor wheel is not only multidirectional, but has the ability to be used as a powered conveyor wheel as well.
Transwheel Corrosion Resistant Construction
Transwheel's body, rollers, center axle and sprockets are constructed out of corrosion resistant, high strength plastic. Outer roller axles are stainless steel with a low friction coating. This corrosion resistant construction permits steam cleaning, water immersion and outdoor applications. Self-lubricating properties eliminate the need for oil or grease.
Transwheels are available in two sizes. The series 2000 Transwheels have a 2" OD and a 25lb/wheel load rating. Series 4000 Transwheels have a 4" OD and a 100lb/wheel load rating.
These Transwheels have an integral double sprocket each with 14 teeth
Transwheel has many applications. Transwheel does the work of a caster without the locking and swinging problems usually experienced with swivel casters. Transwheels also make an efficient economical "ball table." They have larger contact points and the enclosed design keeps out foreign matter, prevents "freezing."
Transwheels are popular robot wheels.
Other applications include: conveyor discharge or loading stations, packaging tables, appliance casters, transfers between angled conveyors, powered turns and powered multi-directional tables. Transwheel's exceptionally lightweight construction is an important advantage for portable or aircraft equipment.
