Custom Rubber Wheels for Industrial & OEM Applications

We manufacture custom rubber wheels and caster wheels engineered for traction, floor protection, shock absorption, and consistent performance under load.

Custom manufacturing only (no standard online catalog). Upload a drawing or share your requirements for a fast DFM review and quotation.

How We Help

  • Instant AI DFM + engineer review to quickly identify manufacturability risks, reduce mold issues, and prevent fit/function problems  Learn more →

  • Material and hardness (Shore A) recommendations based on load, floor type, noise requirements, and environment

  • Custom structure options (tread profile, hubs/inserts, retention features)

  • Prototype + sampling support to validate performance before mass production (wear resistance, resistance to weathering, ozone, and UV rays)

  • Quality control for consistency (dimensions, hardness, appearance/defects)

 

Common Applications for Custom Rubber Wheels

Custom rubber wheels and casters are commonly used in:

  • Industrial carts, material handling equipment, and trolleys

  • Conveyor systems and automation equipment

  • Medical and laboratory equipment (quiet rolling + floor-friendly)

  • Warehouse and facility equipment requiring shock absorption and durability

  • OEM devices requiring specialized performance (grip, wear resistance, low noise, non-marking)

Rubber Wheel Customization Options (Made-to-Spec)

We design wheel performance around your real usage conditions.

Dimensions & Geometry

  • Outer diameter (OD), width, tread shape

  • Bore size / axle fit

  • Edge chamfers or radius for handling and floor protection

Material & Performance Tuning

  • Durometer range selection (Shore A) to balance traction vs wear vs noise

  • Compounds for abrasion resistance, shock absorption, oil resistance, or outdoor use

  • Optional non-marking and low-odor solutions (application dependent)

Core / Hub / Insert Options (If Required)

  • Rubber bonded to metal hub (rubber-to-metal bonding)

  • Insert/retention feature recommendations based on load and torque

  • Bearing, bushing, or plain bore options (based on assembly design)

 

What We Need From You (Fast RFQ Checklist)

To quote quickly and reduce revisions, please share:

  1. Drawing (STEP/PDF) or sample

  2. Load per wheel (static + dynamic, if available)

  3. Rolling surface / floor type (concrete, epoxy floor, tile, etc.)

  4. Environment (oil, chemicals, outdoor/UV exposure, temperature range)

  5. Speed / RPM (if relevant)

  6. Quantity plan: prototype / pilot / mass production forecast

Case Study

Client Profile: Tier-2 rubber and plastic assembler
Timeline: 2015–2018
Challenge: Develop a custom rubber compound from scratch that meets strict mechanical property targets—tensile strength, hardness, abrasion, and tear resistance—while also optimizing product structure for roll-stand transport use.
Our Approach
  1. Collaborative Testing Loop (12+ months) – Conducted iterative testing cycles to refine SBR/NR/EPDM compound ratios, plasticizers, and fillers. Logged mechanical data each round to isolate viable formulations.
  2. Cross-Functional Engineering Support – Partnered with the client’s engineers to co-optimize the product structure alongside the compound recipe.
  3. Expert Consultation – Consulted with a university-based elastomer expert (20+ years experience) to determine optimal gradient percentages and improve formulation efficiency.
  4. Recipe Finalization – Validated a new compound that consistently passed all tensile, hardness, abrasion, and tear resistance tests while using the client’s existing raw rubber source.
Results for the Client
  • Passed all mechanical tests (tensile, Shore A, abrasion, tear) using existing material base
  • Reduced testing time by 40 % after expert engagement
  • Improved durability through structural modifications co-developed with client engineers
  • Cost-optimized solution without switching to new base materials
