About This Drive Wheel - GBN 252/40H7
Choose this 250mm Blickle GBN drive wheel when a powered industrial vehicle needs a traction wheel that grips, rolls easily, and treats the floor gently.
This is a drive wheel, not a caster: it mounts on a powered shaft through a keyed hub, so it transmits drive torque from a motor or gearbox to move an automated guided vehicle, electric tug, or transfer car. The hub uses a 40 millimetre precision bore with a keyway to lock onto the shaft and carry that torque. The tread is Blickle Besthane cast polyurethane over a rugged grey cast iron centre, a combination that grips for traction, rolls with very low resistance, and is gentler on the floor than a bare metal wheel, while the iron core handles drive torque and load without flexing. At 250mm with a wide 80mm face, it carries and drives heavy loads, and it holds from -22 to 158°F.
Ideal applications
- 250mm Blickle GBN Besthane drive wheel for AGVs, electric tugs, and transfer cars
- Keyed-hub traction wheel that transmits motor torque to a powered vehicle
- Cast-iron-core polyurethane tread that grips and rolls easily while sparing the floor
Confirm the bore and keyway dimensions, drive-shaft fit, and load against your vehicle before ordering.
Pairs with: the matching driven axle and motor mount for the same vehicle, from the Blickle collection.
Wrong fit? Need a free-rolling load wheel instead of a driven one? See the 250mm GB 252/25K.

What our customers say
Excellent service! Outstanding quality castors.
Great customer service and casters!
Great service, friendly staff and quality product.
Purchased Blickle casters from W.T. Hight Company. Rated 5/5.
Long story short, we purchased an under-counter freezer that was too tall and needed the casters taken off. However, I had no idea how to do that so a quick Google led me to W.T. Hight and the customer representative, Lemuga, was super patient and walked me through the process! Although we didn't purchase anything this time, their customer service was wonderful and we will be keeping this company on our radar for all things casters!
I had an amazing experience with W.T. Hight Company! I purchased casters for my equipment, and the quality was outstanding — sturdy, reliable, and exactly what I needed. The customer service was top-notch; they were incredibly patient and walked me through the entire process to ensure I got the right fit. Highly recommended.
