Omniwheels feature 3 peripheral polyamide rollers which rotate on stainless steel axles. Ideal for assembly lines, machine feed & packing areas.
(X) Load & Roller materials
Heavy loads require higher Shore A roller hardness; softer, cushioning materials compromise load capacity.
OW48 & OW80 feature stainless steel axles, other models of non-magnetic, all-plastic construction except when specifying bearing centre hub option.
For Brompton Bike choose ‘OW50-2-95-B2’. M6 Bolt, Nut & Washers supplied free of charge for ease of fitting to Brompton Bike.
Diameter, Construction & Spacing
Castor applications – ensure diameter is x3 minimum Ø of any step/obstacle in primary direction of travel.
Synchronise rollers to achieve rapid directional change.
Omniwheel OW48-1 & OW80-1 are singular but configure & synchronise by locking together in series.
Other models pre-synchronised in x2, x3 & x4 construction for modular flexibility & support.
