Ergo-Glide® Wheels
Capacity Range: 550 – 3800 lbs.
As the name infers, Ergo-Glide® wheels are well suited for ergonomic applications due to their low startup and maintain push/pull force. This wheel is also the employee favorite and our wheel of choice for internal operations for its balance of excellent rollability and durability formulated for a quieter operation and greater resistance to foreign objects and debris (F.O.D.).
The Ergo-Glide® XT is essentially the “big brother” of Ergo-Glide® wheels and both are the top poly performers in repelling foreign objects and debris. Factory personnel will also benefit from this wheel’s quiet ride to reduce noise. The ‘XT’ stands for “Extra Thick” or 1” thick of our quietest rolling polyurethane. The 1” thick tread boasts a higher load capacity than the majority of our polyurethane wheel offerings.
The chart below offers our most popular sizes, but these soft poly treads can also be molded to Hamilton's other standard cast iron, forged steel, and/or aluminum centers in finished sizes ranging from 3" to 20" in diameter. The Ergo-Glide® & Ergo-Glide® XT’s heavy-duty cast iron center and high tensile strength poly will likely outlast the others in its class.
