Universal Wheels: The Right Hand for Industrial Heavy Equipment

Today I’d like to talk to you about industrial heavy-duty gimbals, an important component that is used a lot in many industrial scenarios, yet not much attention is paid to it by many people.

First, let’s take a look at what a gimbal is used for. Imagine when we need to move an extra heavy piece of equipment or cargo from one place to another, this is when a gimbal comes in handy. It can be mounted on the bottom of all kinds of heavy machines, transportation trucks, shelves and industrial equipment to help them slide, rotate and steer on the ground.

Universal wheels can swivel 360 degrees, which means they are able to change direction with little effort, either forwards, backwards, left, right or diagonally. This gives us greater flexibility in mechanical handling and is simply handy especially when operating in tight spaces!

A universal wheel usually consists of one or more ball bearings, and this design reduces friction, making the movement of heavy loads easier and smoother. Also, the materials used in universal casters are very strong and durable, which means that they are able to withstand large loads without being easily damaged.

The surface of a universal wheel is usually covered with a soft rubber or polyurethane material, which effectively prevents the floor from being scratched or abraded. Therefore, when using a universal wheel, we can feel confident that we can move goods on various floors without damaging them.

Of course, the universal wheel is not everything. We still need to be careful and follow the safe operation procedures when handling overweight goods. In addition, the universal wheel may encounter some difficulties on uneven ground, so we need to choose the right model and size to adapt to different working environments.
