SPS:
This soft (durometer) compound offers improved chunk and tear resistance along with dramatically increased traction. Yesterday’s soft polyurethane compounds achieved lower durometers at the expense of increased rolling resistance. SPS cushions operators, equipment and loads from shocks and vibrations while its resilient chemical backbone works to extend battery life. SPS is also ideally suited for loading docks, rough floors and harsh freezer applications where traction is most needed. 
 

Hyload: Hyload compound withstands the abuse of high speeds, long runs, and heavy loads that cause other tires and wheels to fail. This highly linear compound is formulated to resist *heat build up so wheels run cool in even the most demanding applications. Hyload resists flat spotting and can carry more weight than standard urethanes.

This compound offers the highest chunk and tear resistance and extends the battery life by lowering ampere draw. Hyload is site proven to run longer and reduce maintenance costs by increasing productivity in extreme applications.



MEGALOAD: The megaload compound was engineered for amusement park applications. In a test track designed to measure resistance to heat build up under extreme conditions, megaload polyurethane wheels completed 18 laps compared to only 6 laps for standard compound wheels, and 14 laps for the Hyload wheels. We consider this to be the ultimate solution and the equivalent to our Vulkollan compound, without the high price and long cure time.

Vulkollan:
Vulkollan is a premium elastomer based on napthalene -1.5, diisocyanate (Desmodur © 15) and was developed in the 1950’s. With its unrivaled property profile, Vulkollan plays an integral part in modern technology. Vulkollan is one of the most outstanding and best known engineered elastomers.


Quantum: The quantum compound is our proprietary thermoset polyurethane formulated to maximize performance in caster wheel applications. Quantum employs a high cross-link density polymer that yields a longer lasting, easier rolling wheel. Quantum wheels are non marking and non abrasive on a wide variety of floors. They are more durable than conventional polymers and will not crack like injection-molded wheels. Not recommended for use on electric jacks.

What's the right compound for me?

Durometer:

Durometer is the international standard for measuring the hardness of rubber, foam rubber, plastic and polyurethane, and most nonmetallic materials. Foam rubbers are usually measured on the Shore 00 scale, solid rubbers on the Shore A scale, and harder urethanes and plastics on the Shore D scale. One object may fall within more than one scale – for example a typical shoe heels is 95 Shore 00, 70 Shore A, and 22 Shore D.
