Key Benefits
- 6 kg maximum load capacity per wheel for light and small product handling
- 45 mm diameter and 55 mm width for consistent fit on standard roller tracks
- 5 mm shaft diameter matches common shaft sizes for easy mounting
- ABS or PE plastic construction reduces weight and wear on light materials
- Available in yellow, white or black for visual identification or aesthetic matching
Application Scenarios
- Light-duty roller tracks in warehouse picking stations for small trays or containers
- Conveyor systems handling flat, smooth items like plastic trays or packaging
- Assembly line transfer points where low friction and low weight are needed
- Floor-mounted wheels on trolleys or carts for moving light equipment
- Conveying systems in packaging lines for small components or consumer goods
Who It Is For
- Conveyor system integrators building low load roller tracks
- Material handling equipment builders using plastic wheels in light-duty applications
- Warehouse automation contractors installing low weight conveyor sections
- Industrial distributors stocking plastic wheels by size and load rating
- Production line builders needing consistent, low-cost wheels for small item transport
Problems It Solves
- Inconsistent wheel fit on roller tracks due to mismatched shaft or diameter sizes
- Heavy wheels causing increased friction and energy use in light load systems
- Difficulty in assembling wheels when shafts and bores do not align
- Lack of color options for visual tracking or system identification
- Need for a low-cost, low-weight wheel that still supports consistent load handling
Technical Features
- 45 mm diameter and 55 mm width for standard roller track compatibility
- 5 mm shaft diameter for mounting on common shaft sizes
- ABS or PE plastic wheel material for low weight and wear resistance
- Maximum load capacity of 6 kg per piece under normal use
- Available in yellow, white or black for visual or operational identification
Materials
- ABS plastic for general light-duty use and good impact resistance
- PE plastic for low friction and chemical resistance in clean environments
- Carbon steel shaft for strength and durability in standard mounting applications
- Rubber on shaft (if applicable) for improved grip and noise reduction
Quality Control
- Shaft bore checked for 5 mm diameter to ensure fit on standard shafts
- Load capacity tested to 6 kg per wheel under static conditions
- Material grade confirmed against ABS or PE specification ordered
- Wheel surface inspected for defects, warping or flash
Customization Options
- Material selected between ABS or PE based on load and environment
- Color selected between yellow, white or black for identification or matching
- Shaft material and finish available upon request (carbon steel or rubber)
- Other W Series models available for different load or size requirements
Use Guide
- Ensure the shaft diameter is 5 mm to match the wheel bore
- Do not exceed 6 kg per wheel to maintain consistent performance
- Use only on flat, smooth surfaces such as trays or rigid packaging
- Avoid use on soft or uneven bottom surfaces like cloth-wrapped items
- Choose color based on system visibility or operational needs

Compared With Other Options
| Metal roller wheels | Plastic wheels are lighter and quieter, but metal wheels handle higher loads and are more durable under impact |
|---|---|
| Larger load-rated wheels | The W-4555NPS is suited for 6 kg loads; heavier items require wheels with higher capacity and larger shafts |
| Standard rubber wheels | Plastic wheels have lower rolling resistance and less wear on smooth surfaces, but rubber offers better grip on uneven floors |
