Electrically Conductive Wheels

With electrically conductive wheels on assembly carts is important for electronics companies medical engineering and other industries to eliminate static build up and discharge that can be generated by transport durastar s duratek conductive wheel is non marking floor protective quiet and smooth operation there is no longer a need for chains or straps that can break or become entangled.

Electrically conductive wheels.

For technical drawings and 3 d models click on a part number. The soft rubber wheels are shock absorbing and provide good traction on rough surfaces. Sleeve bearings prevent wear to the wheel bore but don t roll as easily as other bearings. A wheel or a castor is considered to be electrically conductive in line with standards for wheels and castors din en 12530 12533 if its ohmic resistance does not exceed 10 4 ω product code suffix.

Conductive wheels allow charges to go to ground more easily and so protect against shock or damage to equipment sensitive to electrostatic discharge esd. Esd wheels and conductive wheels are important for medical engineering electrical industry hospital equipment chemical plants or any other areas where electrostatic build up is an issue. Wheels meet ff c 77 and ff c 86 which requires an average electrical resistance of less than 250 000 ohms. Sirius esd electrostatic dissipating wheels allow static electricity to flow through the caster wheel tread and release into conductive flooring.

Electrically conductive wheels in grey and black for loads of up to 520kg per wheel. In the case of non conductive materials elements can be added to ensure that the castors and wheels are electrically conductive. This makes it possible to use plastic castors and wheels in such applications for example. Capacities for these wheels range from 190 pounds to 260 pounds.

The conductive rubber models have a 3 4 5 and 6 wheel option with a thread guard for added protection.
