We are a leading China manufacturer and supplier specialized in producing high-performance heavy-duty polyurethane RGV wheels. Leveraging advanced hot-casting machine, bonding process and high performance polyurethane materials, we create wheels that outperform competitors. Our factory focuses on strict quality control, ensuring that every wheel meets precise dimensional tolerances and durability standards required by modern intralogistics. By controlling the entire production process from core machining to casting and grinding, we deliver reliable solutions that minimize maintenance downtime for our global clients.
These wheels are the heart of efficiency in the material handling industry. They are extensively used in Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS), connecting production lines in automotive manufacturing, intelligent warehousing logistics, and airport luggage handling systems. Whether for straight-line shuttles or circular loop RGV carts, our wheels provide the necessary traction and load support to keep automated systems running smoothly.

Case Studies: How Polyurethane RGV Wheels Solved Client Challenges
Case 1: Smart Warehouse Noise Reduction
A German logistics firm struggled with excessive noise from steel RGV wheels in their smart warehouse. We supplied low-noise polyurethane RGV wheels, reducing operational noise by 45% and meeting EU workplace safety standards. The wheels also extended service life from 6 months to 2 years, cutting maintenance costs by 60%.
Case 2: Automotive Production Line Load Capacity Upgrade
A Chinese automotive manufacturer needed RGV wheels to handle 8,000kg heavy parts. Our high-load polyurethane RGV wheels replaced their rubber alternatives, supporting the weight without deformation and reducing downtime by 15% due to fewer replacements.
Case 3: 3D Parking System Durability Improvement
A Southeast Asian 3D parking operator faced frequent wheel failures in their RGV platforms. Our wear-resistant polyurethane wheels with 85D hardness solved the issue, extending wheel life to 3 years and lowering replacement costs by 70%.
Selection Guide of Polyurethane RGV Wheels
- Calculate maximum load: Choose wheels with load capacity 20% higher than your RGV’s needs.
- Match hardness to environment: 60A-75A for low noise; 85D-90D for heavy-duty wear.
- Consider surface requirements: ESD-safe for electronics, non-marking for cleanrooms.
- Confirm RGV dimensions: Provide diameter/width to ensure perfect fit with axles.
- Evaluate temperature range: Select wheels with -30℃~80℃ tolerance for extreme conditions.
- Test samples first: Verify compatibility, noise level, and wear resistance for your scenario.
What is the lead time for custom RGV wheels?
Standard mold sizes take 2-3 weeks. Completely custom molds and cores typically take 3-4 weeks.
Can you replicate wheels from other brands like Vulkollan?
Yes, as a professional manufacturer, we use comparable high-performance raw materials to match or exceed the specifications of top brands at a better price.
Do you provide the metal cores or just the coating?
We provide the constant complete solution (Core + Polyurethane). We also offer specific services to recoat your existing worn-out cores to save costs.
Are your wheels compatible with all RGV brands (e.g., SSI Schaefer, Daifuku)?
Yes, we offer custom dimensions to fit most RGV brands. Share your equipment specs.
Are you a manufacturer?
Yes. We are manufacturer. Welcome to visit our factory.
Can you introduce your customized process ?
Yes. The process includes Share needs → design & quote → prototype (opt) → production → delivery.
How do you control your product quality?
We have 10 inspectors to carry out raw material inspection, process control ,first article inspection and final inspection.
How do you monitor the production process to avoid delayed delivery?
We use the ERP system to execute orders, and can check the order status and expected delivery time at any time.
What is warranty of products?
