4 advantages of producing casters with polyurethane materials

PU rotating wheels

Why can polyurethane materials be applied to the caster industry, and what are the characteristics of polyurethane casters? The following polyurethane caster manufacturer - Shangxin caster brand will introduce you to the four advantages of polyurethane material casters:

 

1. The performance of polyurethane casters can be adjusted in a large range. Through the selection of raw materials and the adjustment of the formula, many physical and mechanical properties can be changed within a certain range to meet the different requirements of users for product performance.

 

2. Excellent wear resistance. Especially in the presence of water, oil and other wet media, the wear resistance is often several to several times that of ordinary rubber materials. Metallic materials, such as iron and steel, are hard but not necessarily wearable, while rings and protective rings covered with polyurethane wheel elastomers will continue to run and still not wear out.

 

3. Various processing methods are widely used. Polyurethane castor elastomers can be molded, mixed and vulcanized, as well as ordinary rubber, can also be made into liquid rubber, and can be made into granular materials. Like ordinary plastics, it is formed by injection molding, extrusion, calendering and blow molding. Molded or injection molded parts can also be machined to a certain degree of hardness, such as cutting, grinding, drilling, etc. The diversity of processing makes polyurethane elastomers have a wide range of applicability and application fields.

 

4. Oil resistance, ozone resistance, aging resistance, radiation resistance, low temperature resistance, good sound transmission, strong adhesion, good biocompatibility, good blood compatibility. The above four points are the advantages of polyurethane materials being widely used. Polyurethane materials are not only limited to the caster industry, but also used in military, aerospace, acoustics, biology and other fields.
