Low noise caster wheels selection

  • 30 Jul / 2020

Many customers require casters to be completely silent. This is also understandable. Low noise caster wheels have elasticity on the wheel surface, so they can reduce noise and mute in use, and at the same time, they do not hurt the ground. They are especially suitable for use in environments where quietness is required.


　　 Silent casters refer to casters with soft surfaces, such as rubber casters, synthetic rubber casters, polyurethane casters, etc. The biggest advantage of this type of caster is low noise and high user experience. The silent caster is widely used in public places, such as supermarkets, shopping malls, and hospitals.


　　 Although silent casters are quite popular in the life industry. However, it is not favored in industrial production. This is because the friction coefficient between the surface of the silent caster and the ground is large and the contact area is large, which often makes it difficult to push when the load is high. In other words, the weight-bearing capacity of silent casters is very limited.


To sum up, customers should buy casters according to their own needs, instead of blindly thinking that silent casters are perfect, especially in the industrial industry, the choice of silent casters should be cautious.
