Diameter: 4 to 14 inTread: 1-5/8, 2-1/16 inCapacity: up to 18,000 lb
Cast iron and steel casters here serve V-groove track and guided rail systems. Expect wheel diameters 4 to 14 in, cast iron and steel treads, and industrial frames. When floors see chemicals or washdowns, prefer sealed bearings and non-absorbent wheel compounds. Use kingpinless or heavy plate series when shock loads keep shearing kingpin races. These extreme-duty options cover everyday V-groove track and guided rail systems without jumping to extreme forged series.

Flanged Track Wheels - WFT Series for Crane Ru: buying guide

Flanged wheels run on flat steel rail (not V-rail). A vertical flange on one side of the wheel keeps it centered on the rail, while the flat tread carries the load. Used for overhead crane runways, gantry crane bridges, factory transfer systems, and any application where the cart or trolley runs on flat rail rather than V-rail. The 172 Hamilton WFT series products on this page span 6″ through 12″ cast iron flanged wheels at capacities from 5,000 lb up to 18,000 lb per wheel.
