Ratchets Wheel FAQ Section 1:
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.
Applications:
Industrial equipment movement
Automotive repair shops
Medical equipment carts
Aerospace manufacturing
Warehouse logistics
Installation Guide:
Select appropriate Ratchets Wheel model based on load requirements
Ensure mounting surface is clean and level
Align mounting holes precisely
Secure with provided high-grade bolts
Test ratcheting mechanism before full use
Ratchets Wheel FAQ Section 2:
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.

Ratchets Wheel FAQ Section 3:
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.
A rachet involves a round gear or a linear rack with teeth, and a pivoting, spring-loaded finger called a pawl that engages the teeth. The teeth are uniform but asymmetrical, with each tooth having a moderate slope on one edge and a much steeper slope on the other edge. When the teeth are moving...
