Many people and companies that use various kinds of industrial wheels don’t realize that urethane wheels are even made specifically for amusement park rides. So when they are away from the job site and visit a theme park with their children they still might find themselves relying on polyurethane wheels or other custom made polyurethane parts.

Urethane Wheels for Theme Parks

Water or log flume wheels, for instance, are often made from a unique two-component urethane wheels compound. By coupling a high density urethane core with softer treads designed for use on urethane wheels, designers and engineers create ride wheels that are tough and water resistant – but also cushioned enough to absorb shock. Kids get a fun ride that is safely gentle, so that they can enjoy thrill rides without potential injury. Other Interesting Urethane Products

The same goes for urethane bumpers and other polyurethane or urethane products that might be found in amusement parks as well as serious high-tech manufacturing facilities. That’s because urethane elastomers and poly urethane wheels are made and used for thousands of applications. Whether you’re in the military, the construction business, or on a Ferris wheel, chances are that you’re relying on customized urethane parts or products.

The Zero-Crush Urethane Wheel

The unique zero-crush urethane wheel is another interesting and highly specialized product. This type of wheel is made with carefully engineered chambers that lessen the impact on materials that are handled by this particular style of wheel. So when they are used, for example, to handle and move units of cardboard, they can do so without damaging, warping, or marring the materials the way conventional rollers and wheels might.

When learning about the many types of wheels used in diverse industries, keep in mind that the terms “urethane” and “polyurethane” essentially refer to the same kind of polymer urethane or urethane products. To avoid confusion just remember that the words are often used interchangeably. A top manufacturer of urethane wheels is Sunray, Inc.
