Elesa adds range of castors to RE series
An
Elesa (UK) product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team
May 29, 2009
Elesa has added a range of castors to its RE series to address mainstream industrial uses from medical equipment through to electronics, storage and manufacturing.
The range features twin ball race chassis in swivel and total lock variants, as well as fixed types.
New castors from Elesa in their RE series address the mainstream of industrial uses from medical equipment through to electronics, storage and manufacturing.
Twin race is particularly beneficial in minimising the effort required to align the castor in moving away from rest.
Standard wheel configurations depend on the application with heavy-duty polyurethane moulded onto cast aluminium cores and roller bearing axles at the top end through polyurethane over technopolymer and monolithic polyamide to non-marking thermoplastic rubber or vulcanised rubber and plain bearing axles.
The RE.C7 type features grey anti-marking tyres and axle thread guards for use in public-access areas, such as tiled corridors where floor appearance is a concern and where clothing debris is otherwise able to foul the castor axle.
The RE series ranges in wheel size from 50mm up to 200mm with static load capabilities of 1,000N to 10,000N, equating to maximum load capacities up to and exceeding 750kg on rugged RE.F5 castors.
Surfaces catered for include smooth tiles to asphalt or cement floors, while the G1 series can accommodate expanded metal floors as found in the frequent washdown areas of food processing and so on.
RE.C7 and RE/FF types are available in stainless-steel-chassis versions to suit adverse conditions.
The temperature capability for RE castors is -20C to +80C.
