3" x 7/8" Polyolefin Wheel w/ Delrin Bearing - 1.00003.53

About This Wheel - 20GH30-03

Pick this 3-inch narrow polyolefin wheel for a light cart that lives in a damp room, where a rubber wheel soaks up water and rots but the molded polyolefin shrugs it off and never needs grease.

Colson molds this wheel from its own polyolefin compound in one piece, so there is no rubber to absorb moisture and no steel to rust, which is exactly what kills wheels on carts that sit in wash-down kitchens, mop rooms, and humid storage. The narrow 7/8 inch tread keeps it light and low-friction for a small cart, and the Delrin plain bearing takes no lubrication and cannot corrode. The ride is firm, and the load class is light to medium.

Ideal applications

• Light mail or tote cart in a damp mailroom or storeroom
• Mop and janitor cart left standing in wet areas
• Small utility rig where rubber wheels rot and steel rusts

Skip this narrow polyolefin wheel if the cart carries real weight; the wider 1-1/4 inch tread 31GH30-03 spreads a heavier load.

Pairs with: a matching 3-inch caster fork to build a swivel or rigid caster, from the Caster Hardware collection.

Wrong fit? Heavier load, or a quiet ride? See the 3-inch wide 31GH30-03 and the polyolefin wheel collection.

Also in this family: the 4-inch narrow 20GH40-03 and 5-inch narrow 20GH50-03, or the polyolefin wheel collection.
