More Information About This Product
About This Wheel - VPA 80/8K-EL
Pick this 80mm wheel for a small static-sensitive cart that has to bleed its charge to the floor in a compact diameter.
Like the larger conductive wheel, it runs a low-resistance path through the tyre and centre so static on the cart discharges to ground instead of arcing as a spark, which is what an electronics bench or a cleanroom trolley needs. The difference is size: at 80mm it keeps a small frame low where a 125mm wheel would not fit. The solid rubber tyre at 80 Shore A sits on a polypropylene centre and is black to mark it conductive, quiet and non-marking from -4 to 140°F, on a ball bearing and an 8mm axle. Blickle builds the path into the wheel itself.
Ideal applications
- Compact electronics-bench carts on a grounded floor
- Cleanroom trolleys needing ESD protection in 80mm
- Small static-sensitive frames where 125mm will not fit
If there is no static concern, the standard grey VPA 80/8K rolls the same at lower cost.
Pairs with: an 8mm axle and a conductive swivel or rigid fork to complete the ground path.
Wrong fit? No ESD need, or a larger wheel? See the standard VPA 80/8K and the 125mm conductive VPA 126/8K-EL.
Also in this family: the 125mm conductive VPA 126/8K-EL and the standard VPA 80/8K, or the full Blickle collection.

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.
