Sliding gate V-Groove wheels - SLGWSD410IB
*Heavy-duty *Steel material *Double bearing *Interior Bracket *Max 410 Kg *98 mm Diameter x 33 mm WidthA sliding gate V-groove wheel is a type of wheel designed to roll along a V-shaped track, providing support and guidance for sliding gates, particularly those made of metal.
The V-groove in the wheel precisely matches the track, ensuring smooth, stable, and quiet operation. These wheels are often used in industrial and heavy-duty applications due to their ability to handle significant weight and resist wear.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
-
V-Groove Design:The defining feature of these wheels is the V-shaped groove on their circumference. This groove fits snugly onto a corresponding V-shaped track, which can be made of angle iron or other suitable materials.
-
Track System:The track is typically installed along the path where the gate will slide, providing a stable and guided surface for the wheels to roll on.
-
Benefits:V-groove wheels offer several advantages, including:
- Smooth Operation: The close fit between the wheel and track minimizes friction and vibration, resulting in smooth gate movement.
- Stability: The V-groove design provides excellent stability, preventing the gate from wobbling or derailing.
- Durability: Many V-groove wheels are made from durable materials like steel or nylon, offering good wear resistance and longevity.
- Load Capacity: They can handle substantial weight, making them suitable for heavy gates.
- Smooth Operation: The close fit between the wheel and track minimizes friction and vibration, resulting in smooth gate movement.
-
Applications:V-groove wheels are commonly used in:
- Industrial Gates: Supporting heavy doors in factories and warehouses.
- Heavy-Duty Sliding Gates: For residential and commercial properties.
- Automated Gates: Used in conjunction with gate operators.
- Other Sliding Applications: They can also be found in other applications like sliding machinery or even pet gates.
- Industrial Gates: Supporting heavy doors in factories and warehouses.
-
Materials:V-groove wheels can be made from various materials, including:
- Steel: Offers high strength and load capacity.
- Nylon: Provides good wear resistance and reduced noise.
- Polyurethane: Offers a good balance of durability and quiet operation.
- Steel: Offers high strength and load capacity.
-
Installation:The wheels are typically mounted to the bottom of the gate, allowing them to roll along the track.

Support Roller
Support Roller for sliding gates are essential components that ensure smooth, stable, and reliable gate operation.
They guide the gate along its track, preventing it from tipping or falling off and ensuring it opens and closes with minimal friction and noise.
Function:
-
Guidance:Support rollers are typically mounted on the gate posts and guide the gate along its track as it opens and closes.
-
Stability:They keep the gate upright and prevent it from swaying or falling out of alignment, especially in windy conditions or with heavier gates.
-
Smooth Operation:By minimizing friction, they allow the gate to slide easily and quietly, enhancing the user experience.
-
Durability:They are designed to withstand the wear and tear of regular use and exposure to the elements.
Types:
- Nylon Rollers: Often used due to their durability, smooth operation, and resistance to corrosion.
- Rubber Rollers: While cheaper, they may leave marks on the gate and wear out faster.
- V-Groove Wheels: Suitable for specific track types and known for their longevity.
Installation:
- Positioning: Support rollers are typically installed on the gate posts, positioned to guide the gate along its track.
- Spacing: A gap of 5-10mm is usually recommended between rollers to allow for some movement and prevent them from doing all the work, especially if the gate is not perfectly balanced.
- Fixation: They are usually secured with bolts or by welding them to the post.
Maintenance:
-
Lubrication:Applying a silicone-based lubricant to the support rollers and other moving parts can help maintain smooth operation and reduce noise.
-
Regular Inspection:Inspecting rollers for wear and tear or damage is recommended to ensure continued reliable performance.

Gate Rubber Stopper A1
Types of Rubber Stoppers:
- Fixed rubber stoppers: Permanently installed, often used for heavier gates.
- Adjustable rubber stoppers: Allow for customization of the gate's swing position.
- Spring-loaded rubber stoppers: Combine a spring mechanism with the rubber for enhanced shock absorption and noise reduction.
- Floor-mounted rubber stoppers: Attached to the floor to stop the gate's movement.
Where they are used:
-
Swing gates:Commonly used to prevent swing gates from hitting walls, posts, or other structures.
-
Sliding gates:Used to stop the gate at the end of its track, preventing it from rolling off.
-
Industrial gates:Used in various industrial settings for gates that experience frequent and forceful use.
-
Residential gates:Used in homes to protect gates, walls, and prevent accidents.
