Electrically Conductive Wheels

This makes it possible to use plastic castors and wheels in such applications for example.

Electrically conductive wheels.

In the case of non conductive materials elements can be added to ensure that the castors and wheels are electrically conductive. Sleeve bearings prevent wear to the wheel bore but don t roll as easily as other bearings. A wheel or a castor is regarded as having antistatic properties if its ohmic resistance does not exceed 10 7 ω product code suffix. Electrically conductive wheels in grey and black for loads of up to 520kg per wheel.

Sirius esd electrostatic dissipating wheels allow static electricity to flow through the caster wheel tread and release into conductive flooring. The electrically conductive rhombus 380 series won a reddot design award for its style and function and these casters have a positive wheel. Wheels meet ff c 77 and ff c 86 which requires an average electrical resistance of less than 250 000 ohms. The conductive rubber models have a 3 4 5 and 6 wheel option with a thread guard for added protection.

Capacities for these wheels range from 190 pounds to 260 pounds. A wheel or a castor is considered to be electrically conductive in line with standards for wheels and castors din en 12530 12533 if its ohmic resistance does not exceed 10 4 ω product code suffix. During operation of the transport equipment the electrical conductivity of the castors and wheels can be reduced by dust paint acids alkalis impacts and overloading. The soft rubber wheels are shock absorbing and provide good traction on rough surfaces.
