The 150 × 80 mm flanged wheel made of cast polyamide 6G (PA6G) combines precise turned part quality with the material-specific advantages of technical plastic: tough, high-strength and significantly lighter than steel wheels while offering comparable load capacity. It is the right choice for rail-guided systems where weight, noise, and rail compatibility play a role.

Technical features at a glance

• Outer diameter: 150 mm
• Wheel width: 80 mm
• Material: Polyamide 6, cast (PA6G)
• Bearing: 2× deep groove ball bearings 2RS (sealed on both sides) or hub groove
• Tread: 3° conical to the axis – precisely turned
• Flange molded on both sides of the wheel body
• Surface: natural color (natural white/beige)
• Suitable for flat rails and profile rails

Areas of application

• Overhead cranes, gantry cranes, bridge cranes (smaller load classes)
• Rail-guided monorails & suspended conveyors
• Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) & automatic storage systems

• Conveyor technology & transfer systems on rails
• Industrial doors & sliding door systems
• Systems requiring electrical insulation or freedom from corrosion

Advantages over steel wheels

• Up to 60% lower weight – relevant for moving masses and energy efficiency
• Electrically non-conductive – no leakage current across the rail
• No rusting, no corrosion protection required
• Inherent gliding properties of the material reduce lubrication requirements
• Rail-friendly due to lower surface pressure and damping behavior
• Quieter running – less structure-borne noise transmission than with steel
