Floor: on Hamilton nylon wheels, polyurethane is kinder to tile and finished floors; nylon and cast iron roll easier under heavy loads on smooth concrete.
Heat: among Hamilton nylon wheels, the highest listed range is up to 800°F on cast iron; check the temperature field on each listing before oven or hot-room use.
