5" x 1-1/4" Solid Polyurethane Wheel w/ Plain Bore - 31UD50-24

About This Wheel - 31UD50-24

Specify this 5-inch solid polyurethane wheel with the plain bore for a light cart that has to roll over thresholds in a harsh spot and stay simple, the taller one-piece wheel with no bond to peel and no bearing to maintain.

The 5-inch diameter is the reason to choose this over the smaller plain-bore wheels: it rides over door sills, drain channels, and floor seams that catch a shorter wheel, while keeping the same fail-nothing simplicity. The wheel is solid Blue polyurethane with no bond line for chemicals or shock to attack, and the plain bore rides directly on the axle with nothing to rust or wash out. The polyurethane stays non-marking and tough to -50°F. The 1-1/4 inch tread carries a light load.

Ideal applications

• Light cart rolling over sills and drains in a harsh spot
• Tall simple rig with no bearing to wash out or grease
• Cold or wet area to -50°F where bonded treads fail

Skip the plain bore if the cart carries more or cycles fast; a 5-inch roller solid polyurethane wheel carries a heavier load on a bearing.

Pairs with: a matching 5-inch caster fork and axle to build a swivel or rigid caster, from the Caster Hardware collection.

Wrong fit? Need a bearing, or more load? See the 5-inch roller solid polyurethane 41UE52-24 and the 8-inch roller 41UE82-24.

Also in this family: the 4-inch plain-bore 31UD40-24, or the solid polyurethane wheel collection.
