Description
Technical Overview
Engineers design this 260mm pneumatic wheel to provide mobility and support for low-speed mechanical assemblies. Furthermore, the wheel features a two-piece split steel rim and a rubber tyre. Consequently, this robust construction easily accommodates loads up to 100kg when you fully inflate the tyre. In addition, the system integrates seamlessly with hub-driven setups. Specifically, you can mount the unit onto a 4-hole, 55mm bolt-hole circle pattern using standard M10 hardware. Finally, this wheel does not include internal bearings. Instead, it relies on a direct connection between the 40mm rim centre hole and a compatible powered or unpowered hub interface.
Applications
Project teams frequently utilize this versatile wheel for both indoor and outdoor integration. For instance, builders commonly deploy it in custom mobile robotics, platform carts, and various material handling systems. Because the tyre features a diamond tread pattern, it significantly optimizes traction on smooth paved surfaces and mild off-road terrain. Moreover, typical deployment scenarios include low-RPM automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and manual utility transport carts. As a result, operators can safely run these systems at rotational speeds up to 500 RPM.

Maker Store Tips and Tricks
-
Avoid operating the wheel while deflated, as low pressure causes the internal tube to shift and sustain puncture damage.
-
For mobile robotics platforms, pair these wheels with 775 Planetary Geared Motors to achieve balanced torque and speed delivery.
-
Regularly check tyre pressure against the 30 PSI maximum rating to prevent premature wear and maintain structural load stability.
