About Nylon Wheels

Nylon is the go-to wheel material for chemical, food, and wash-down environments where polymer wheels degrade and metal wheels rust. Hard nylon won't absorb moisture, resists most cleaning chemicals, and survives caustic environments that destroy polyurethane and rubber.

How to Choose

1. Chemical Resistance

Nylon resists most industrial cleaners, food acids, and oils. Verify specific chemical compatibility for your environment.

2. Wash-Down Use

Won't absorb moisture or harbor bacteria. Standard for food prep tables, pharmaceutical, and lab carts.

3. Floor Type

Hard nylon wheel — best on smooth concrete, tile, or stainless steel. Avoid on plush carpet (high rolling resistance) and soft floors (mark risk).

4. Capacity Range

250 to 1,200 lb per wheel.
