Where our pneumatic castors are used

Pneumatic castors are designed to protect their load by providing some natural shock absorption in the tyre wheel compared to a nylon, solid plastic or metal wheel. This means that fragile goods can be transported with less worry of damage. Pneumatic castors are therefore popular for moving crockery around a restaurant or hotel, and even outdoors between buildings. As an alternative to air filled pneumatic castors, some models come with a foam filled urethane option.

Other things like audio visual equipment are expensive and have lots of small components that may be susceptible to damage from sudden bumps and shocks. Pneumatic castor wheels provide a smoother ride across rough or unsealed ground, reducing the effect of bumps on the load carried. A trolley, case or rolling shelf unit with pneumatic castors may be a good choice if there are concerns around vibrations and their damage to goods transported.  

Our pneumatic wheels are also used in places where a floor material needs to be protected from marks - think the lobby of a hotel, a showroom or floor of a department store. The grey tyre design of our pneumatic castors helps to prevent marking up the floor when carrying a large load and making a turn or stopping.

Industries that use our pneumatic castor wheels

The pneumatic castor’s vibration protection makes it popular in many industries including hospitality, automotive, film & TV, retail, manufacturing, chemicals and even food processing. Consider the movement of liquids that can react to shakes and bumps - the pneumatic option allows these types of operations to move their product around without concern.  Supermarkets also opt for pneumatic tyre castors for the loading and shifting of product between aisle, storage and loading bays.

Advice for buying pneumatic castors online

If you’re looking at purchasing pneumatic castors for the first time, here’s some tips:

  • Ensure that the weight of the shelf, trolley and its intended max load does not exceed the rated kg weight limit of your castors - combined. For example 4x castors at 140kg max load allows for 560kg load maximum.
  • Do you need to be moving the load with complete 360 degree swivel ability, forward and back only, or a combined swivel and fixed castor configuration (like that on a typical supermarket trolley).
  • How will the castor be affixed to the transport apparatus - bolted on or is a weld required (if so you’ll need a mounting plate). 
  • What environment is the castor going to be in? Does the castor provide resistance to water, temperature swing and impact?
  • What sort of floor surface is required? And will the tyre of your pneumatic castor be big enough to easily move across this surface?
  • Is the castor provider able to supply installation support?

Wheelco can satisfy all of these needs and answer these questions, plus a lot more. We know pneumatic castors, and are here to ensure you make the right choice.

Custom pneumatic castor wheel options available

You’ll find a broad range of pneumatic castor wheel options that are fit for many applications and industries. However, there are certain operations that require a bespoke solution outside of the product range. Wheelco has been designing and building custom wheel solutions for clients for many years, with our bespoke work found in the likes of aviation, construction and virtually every other industry that needs castors. If you don’t find what you need from the products in this section, we will likely be able to source a non-standard option for you, or indeed build a complete solution for you. Get in touch with our team today for a free consultation.
