*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.
