50mm x 19mm Blickle Polyurethane Caster - PATH 50/6KF-ELS

About This Wheel - PATH 50/6KF-ELS

Specify this 50mm conductive wheel for a compact instrument or electronics cart on a 6mm axle where a static spark would damage a circuit.

The ELS grade is the point: the polyurethane and wheel are made electrically conductive, so the static a small wheel builds up rolling drains to a grounded floor instead of arcing into a board, and it does that at the lowest, most compact size in the line. It still rides on a 6mm precision ball bearing for a light push with a synthetic thread guard on the race. The tread is Blickle's thermoplastic polyurethane at 94 Shore A on a nylon 6 centre, non-marking grey from -4 to 158°F.

Ideal applications

• 50mm ESD carts on a 6mm axle near sensitive circuits
• Conductive 6mm-bore wheel bleeding static to a grounded floor
• Compact electronics benches needing a low non-marking wheel

For a standard non-conductive version of this 6mm wheel, the PATH 50/6KF costs less.

Pairs with: a grounded conductive caster fork and a 6mm axle in an ESD-controlled area.

Wrong fit? Don't need static control or want a sealed bearing? See the standard PATH 50/6KF and the sealed-bearing PATH 50/6KFD.
