Ratchets wheels have revolutionized material handling across industries. Our premium Ratchets Wheel combines durability with precision engineering to deliver unmatched performance.
| Model | Diameter | Load Capacity | Material | Rotation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RW-400 | 4" | 1,200 lbs | Steel/Rubber | 360° |
| RW-600 | 6" | 1,800 lbs | Steel/Rubber | 360° |
| RW-800 | 8" | 2,200 lbs | Steel/Polyurethane | 360° |
| RW-1000 | 10" | 2,500 lbs | Steel/Polyurethane | 360° |
Q: What makes Ratchets Wheel different from regular caster wheels?
A: Ratchets Wheel features a patented locking mechanism that allows controlled incremental movement, preventing unwanted rolling while maintaining precise positioning capability. Traditional caster wheels either roll freely or lock completely, while our Ratchets Wheel provides intermediate stopping points for superior control.
Q: How often should Ratchets Wheel bearings be lubricated?
A: For optimal performance, we recommend lubricating Ratchets Wheel bearings every 3 months under normal use, or monthly in high-intensity industrial environments. Use only high-quality lithium-based grease and clean the bearing surface before application. Our sealed bearing system reduces maintenance frequency compared to standard wheels.
| Feature | Standard Wheel | Ratchets Wheel |
|---|---|---|
| Movement Control | Free rolling or locked | Incremental positioning |
| Load Capacity | Up to 1,500 lbs | Up to 2,500 lbs |
| Maintenance Interval | Monthly | Quarterly |
Q: Can Ratchets Wheel be used outdoors?
A: Yes, our weather-resistant models (RW-800-WR and RW-1000-WR) are specifically designed for outdoor use featuring stainless steel components and UV-resistant polymer treads. These models withstand temperature extremes from -40°F to 250°F and include enhanced sealing against moisture and debris ingress. For standard models, we recommend indoor use only.
