Material description for wheel treads

Thermoplastic rubber elastomers are non-marking, quiet and provide a relatively low level of rolling and swivel resistance. TPE treads contain a small amount of oil and could therefore staining sensitive surfaces.

Technical details:

• color gray, non-marking
• hardness 85 ± 3 Shore A
  
  

• electrically conductive, gray, non-marking, leak resistance ≤10⁴ Ω

Solid rubber tires can be used for a wide variety of applications. They are vibration-absorbing and impact-resistant. Black, standard, solid rubber can mark sensitive surfaces. A non-marking, gray, solid rubber tread can be used as an alternative in such cases.

Technical details:

• color black
• hardness 80 +5 / -10 Shore A

• color gray, non-marking
• electrically conductive, leak resistance ≤10⁴ Ω
• high temperature resistant version up to +200 °C (VEHI series)
• high temperature resistant version up to +260 °C (VKHT series)

Our “Blickle Soft” soft rubber tires are based on a specially-developed highly-elastic rubber compound. The tread is vibration-absorbing and has extremely good floor preservation properties. Our “Blickle Soft” soft rubber also provides outstanding operational comfort and low levels of starting and rolling resistance, even on challenging surfaces. It can therefore be used as a punctureproof alternative to pneumatic tires.

Technical details:

• color black
• hardness 50 + 5 Shore A

• color gray, non-marking

The “Blickle Comfort” two-component solid rubber tire is vibration-absorbing, has good floor preservation properties and provides good operational comfort. The special design incorporates a solid rubber core and a highly elastic tread, giving the “Blickle Comfort” two-component solid rubber tire a higher load capacity and a lower level of starting and rolling resistance than a traditional solid rubber tire.

Technical details:

• color black
• hardness 65 ± 4 Shore A (rubber core 90 Shore A)

• color gray, non-marking (tread hardness: 56 ± 4 Shore A)

The “Blickle SoftMotion” soft rubber tire has a special tread made of high-quality elastic solid rubber, which transforms rolling into a smooth gliding motion. The tread is vibration-absorbing and has extremely good floor preservation properties. The tire is vulcanised onto the wheel center. This allows the wheels to withstand even high levels of lateral stress. The thick tread, with its speciallydesigned contour and hardness of 55 Shore A, has a particularly high level of elasticity and low rolling resistance due to the use of a high-quality rubber compound.

Technical details:

• color gray, non-marking
• hardness 55 ± 3 Shore A

Elastic solid rubber tires are based on a special rubber compound containing a high proportion of natural rubber. Alongside the traditional properties of a solid rubber tread, they provide increased operational comfort, a particularly high load capacity and extremely low starting and rolling resistance due to the elasticity of the Blickle elastic solid rubber tread. Elastic solid rubber press-on bands are available in two different versions:

• The first is designed for smooth rolling. This version is resistant to abrasion and boasts a particularly low level of starting and rolling resistance.
• The second is designed for drive quality. This version maximises resistance to abrasion while maintaining a low level of starting and rolling resistance.

• color black
• hardness 65 ± 3 Shore A

• color gray, non-marking
• color blue, non-marking
• friction wheel quality, 70 ± 5 Shore A
• electrically conductive, black leak resistance ≤10⁴ Ω, 71 ± 3 Shore A
• antistatic, gray, non-marking, leak resistance ≤10⁷ Ω

Heat-resistant silicone-elastomer is abrasion-resistant, highly elastic, suitable for autoclaves, ageing resistant, odourless, physiologically harmless and resistant to UV radiation. However, it is not resistant to strong lyes, chlorinated hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons. While the mechanical properties are adequate, siliconeelastomers provide a high level of operational comfort and consistently low levels of deformation. Heat-resistant silicone-elastomer can be used in temperatures between -25 °C and +250 °C.

• color black
• hardness 75 ± 4 Shore A

• color gray, non-marking

Rubber pneumatic tires are vibration-absorbing and have extremely good floor preservation properties. They also provide outstanding operational comfort and a low level of rolling resistance, even on poor quality surfaces. The thickness of the tire is given in the form of a ply rating. Light tires have a ply rating of between 2 and 4, while heavy tires have a ply rating of between 6 and 10. To optimise performance and guarantee a long service life, we recommend maintaining the tire pressure specified in the relevant table to prevent damage to the tire. The wheel and tire dimensions provided here apply to new tires that are not bearing a load. Their width and diameter may change when they are in use.

• hardness 60 ± 5 Shore A

• color gray, non-marking

Super-elastic solid rubber tires are multicomponent tires. Their rubber core is made up of a tough rubber compound with reinforced steel-wires. This keeps the tires seated securely on the rim, even under heavy loads. A highly elastic cushion layer keeps tire temperatures low, even when transporting heavy loads at high speed. The thick, abrasion-resistant tread protects the tire against external damage and ensures that they remain in service for a long time. This makes the tire particularly suitable for challenging application conditions. Super-elastic solid rubber tires also provide outstanding operational comfort and a low level of rolling resistance, even on poor quality surfaces. They are puncture-proof and maintenance-free, can be steered precisely and have an abrasion-resistant tread. All of these factors and their good structural integrity make them superior to pneumatic tires. The wheel and tire dimensions provided here apply to new tires that are not bearing a load. Their width and diameter may change when they are in use.
