Durastar flat-free foam wheels

This collection holds FF with polyurethane and pneumatic treads, made to replace worn wheels on carts, dollies, racks, and equipment. Wheels in this collection range from 250 to 300 lb per wheel. Wheels in this category range from 6 up to 10 inches in diameter with 2 to 3-1/2 in tread widths. Polyurethane (poly or urethane) treads are quiet, floor safe, and resist water and many chemicals. Air filled and flat free tires cushion the load and roll over gravel, grass, cracks, and debris. Common uses include food service, bakeries, hospitals, schools, laboratories, and material handling carts. Match the bore, hub length, diameter, and tread width before you order. Order the axle and spacers if the old ones are worn. Read the listing for the exact wheel size, overall height, and mount shown. Confirm the load rating printed on the title before you order. Polyurethane aisle: polyurethane casters. Caster hub: heavy duty casters.
