Antibacterial Polyurethane wheels

Antibacterial characteristic makes casters suitable for carriers for food industries.
Wearing resistance and clean polyurethane


抗菌ホワイトウレタン車輪 ステンレスキャスター/自在/抗菌ホワイトウレタン車輪付 ステンレスキャスター/固定/抗菌ホワイトウレタン車輪付

Results of antibacterial test by Japan Food Research Laboratories
Inoculum strain Number measurement Specimens Number of strain
Staphylococcus aureus Right after inoculation Comparison 400,000
After 24hours at 35℃ Sample a) 920,000
Sample b) Less than 10
Escherichia coli Right after inoculation Comparison 280,000
After 24hours at 35℃ Sample a) 19,000,000
Sample b) 210

The number of Staphylococcus aureus decreased from 400,000 to below 10, and Escherichia coli from 280,000 to 210 respectively after 24hours.

Right after inoculation

After 24hours

WUW (Antibacterial polyurethane) wheel can be applied to standard pressed steel, Stainless steel and Scaffolding casters.

About "Electrically conductive casters"

When selecting this type of caster with carriers in clean room and equipment of examination as a countermeasure against static electricity , you can refer to volume resistance of the materials used.

Volume resistance
Applying voltage to a cubical object generates electric current both inside and outside the object.
Resistance against the current inside is called "volume resistance" The less value, the higher electrically conductivity.
Under 102Ω・cm・・・・・・・Highly conductivity
103~105Ω・cm・・・・・Conductivity
106~109Ω・cm・・・・・Electrostatic property

When used with platform trucks, ISO criterion value of resistance applied to the area including handle and the floor is less than109Ω・cm

About monomer cast nylon wheel

Monomer cast nylon has higher molecular mass and crystallization degree compared to the conventional nylon resin.
It has excellent mechanical and thermal properties, abrasion, chemical and fatigue resistance.

1. Toughnes ・・・Excellent impact resistance and load capacity
2. Chemical Resistance ・・・Chemical, oil and solvent resistance
3. Wear and abrasion resistance ・・・Low coefficient of friction thanks to self-lubricating property
4. Vibration reduction ・・・ Absorbs vibration well thanks to small natural vibration frequency and big logarithmic decrement, resulting in noise reduction.
5. Lower in cost ・・・Suited to volume production and help to reduce production cost
 
MC (Monomer cast nylon) wheels can be applied to Standard pressed steel, Compact medium duty, Compact heavy duty, Twin wheeled compact heavy duty, Compact Extra Heavy duty, Stainless steel, Corner and Shock absorbing casters.
