ABS roller wheel with metal bearing GA-01-01
The GA-01-01 is an ABS roller wheel with a metal bearing, designed for light to small product handling. It has a 48.5 mm diameter, 16 mm width, and an 8.1 mm shaft diameter, rated for 40 kg maximum load per unit. The wheel is mounted on a carbon steel shaft and uses a rubber tread for grip and quiet operation. It is suitable for use in material handling equipment, warehouse systems, and light-duty conveyors where smooth, low-friction movement is required.

Part of the Plastic Roller Wheel range, used in Conveyor OEMs and System Integrators.
Key Benefits
- 40 kg maximum load capacity per unit for light to small product handling
- ABS wheel with rubber tread provides quiet and smooth rolling on flat surfaces
- Carbon steel shaft with metal bearing ensures durability and consistent rotation
- Compact size of 48.5 mm diameter and 16 mm width fits into tight conveyor or equipment spaces
- Easy to assemble and ship, reducing setup time and logistics complexity
Application Scenarios
- Conveyor systems in warehouses moving small trays or packaging components
- Assembly line trolleys transporting lightweight parts between workstations
- Material handling carts used in production areas with smooth floor surfaces
- Light-duty transfer points between two conveyor lines with low load requirements
- Floor-mounted wheels on mobile storage units or tool carts in industrial environments
Who It Is For
- Conveyor system integrators building light-duty conveying lines
- Warehouse equipment builders needing low-load wheels for tray handling
- Industrial distributors stocking plastic roller wheels by load and shaft size
- Production line builders requiring consistent wheel performance across multiple units
- Equipment makers designing mobile trolleys or carts for internal transport
Problems It Solves
- Inconsistent wheel performance when using mixed suppliers for plastic roller wheels
- Difficulty in matching shaft size and diameter when assembling conveyors from multiple sources
- Noise and vibration from low-quality plastic wheels under repeated use
- Wear or deformation of wheels when handling flat, smooth items on hard surfaces
- Lack of standardization in load rating and mounting dimensions across suppliers
Technical Features
- ABS wheel with rubber tread for quiet and smooth rolling on flat surfaces
- Metal bearing mounted on carbon steel shaft for reliable rotation and load support
- Shaft diameter of 8.1 mm fits M8 threaded shafts commonly used in industrial conveyors
- Wheel diameter of 48.5 mm and width of 16 mm provide a compact footprint
- Maximum load capacity of 40 kg per unit ensures consistent performance under rated load
Materials
- ABS wheel with rubber tread for low noise and good grip on flat surfaces
- Carbon steel shaft for strength and compatibility with standard M8 mounting
- Metal bearing inside the wheel for smooth rotation and long service life
Quality Control
- Load capacity tested to 40 kg to confirm performance under maximum load
- Rotation checked by hand to ensure smooth and consistent movement
- Shaft diameter verified against 8.1 mm specification
- Wheel diameter and width measured to match 48.5 mm and 16 mm values
- Material grade confirmed against ABS and carbon steel requirements
Customization Options
- Shaft diameter can be adjusted to match existing M8 or other standard shafts
- Wheel material can be changed to other plastics if needed for specific environments
- Tread type can be modified for different surface grip or noise levels
- Load capacity can be reviewed for higher or lower requirements upon request
Use Guide
- Ensure the shaft diameter matches the 8.1 mm specification when mounting
- Do not exceed 40 kg per wheel to maintain performance and prevent wear
- Use only on flat, smooth surfaces such as trays or pallets; avoid soft or uneven bottoms
- Mount wheels in pairs or sets to distribute load evenly across the system
- Inspect wheels regularly for tread wear or bearing seizure, especially in high-use areas
