Custom Polyurethane Idler Wheels
Polyurethane Idler Wheels are designed to rotate independently from the shaft on which they are mounted. Depending on the equipment structure, the wheel can be manufactured with a hollow center, bushing or bearing arrangement for smooth and reliable rotation.
The wheel core or hub can be made from aluminum, iron or harder polyurethane. Polisan manufactures custom urethane idler wheels in different shapes, hardness levels, colors and sizes according to your technical drawing, sample or application requirements.

Core Advantages
Excellent Wear Resistance
The polyurethane outer layer provides a durable running surface for repeated contact with conveyor tracks, guide surfaces and handling equipment.
Non-Marking Polyurethane Surface
Polyurethane idler wheels provide a resilient contact surface that helps reduce marking on operating surfaces and conveyed materials.
Oil, Acid and Alkali Resistance
The polyurethane material can be selected for industrial environments where resistance to oil, acids or alkaline substances is required.
Shock Absorption
The flexible urethane layer helps absorb impact and vibration during operation, supporting smoother movement through conveyor and material-handling systems.
Smooth and Quiet Operation
Polyurethane contact surfaces help reduce rolling noise and provide smooth operation in light-duty and low-to-moderate-speed equipment.
