Electrically conductive wheels and antistatic wheels and castors are used in almost every industrial setting, from medical engineering, electrical and semi-conductor industries to the automotive industry, hospitals, pharmaceuticals and other chemical industrial sectors. These wheels and castors are used everywhere protection against electrostatic discharge is required. Operators and sensitive goods are particularly susceptible to the electrostatic discharge that can be generated by transport units or by transported goods.

The SVS wheel series is primarily used for heavy duty applications requiring extremely high load capacities of up to 15,000 kg. They are typically used in machine and systems engineering. Their resistance to a wide range of aggressive substances also makes them suitable for use in applications which require resistance to chipping and oil. Despite their exceptional load capacities, only minimal effort is required on smooth surfaces to move transport units with SVS castors. The rugged grey cast iron series is extremely wear-resistant and is also capable of withstanding temperatures of between -25°C and 120°C.

The castors and wheels which are frequently used for medium loads are often capable of transporting heavy loads, albeit generally at the cost of operational comfort. The significant weight involved also tends to have a detrimental effect on the floor. Blickle’s premium rubber wheels and castors are designed for specific applications. In addition to ensuring good floor preservation, they are also easy to manoeuvre and provide a high level of operational comfort in their class.

Light duty castors and wheels are mainly used for less demanding applications requiring a load capacity of up to 280 kg. They are designed for speeds of up to 3 km/h and therefore more frequently used indoors.Typical applications of light duty castors are medical equipment, display bases or equipment for large-scale catering establishments.
