Most customers who have used to carry small tanks know that there are two types of wheels for carrying small tanks, namely steel wheels and PU wheels, but many people do not know the difference between the two types of wheels, and there are also some misunderstandings about whether steel wheels are better than PU wheels. Below, Hunting Crane will introduce the differences between steel wheels and PU wheels:

First of all, steel wheel and PU wheel (i.e. rubber wheel) are literally harder than PU wheel, and the wear resistance of steel wheel is higher than PU wheel, and the bearing capacity of steel wheel small tank is higher than PU wheel small tank; However, this does not mean that small tanks with PU wheels are inferior to small tanks with steel wheels. Because small tanks with steel wheels are used in many workplaces, it is not suitable to use small tanks with steel wheels to carry heavy objects due to ground conditions, so only PU wheels can be used.

Secondly, compared with steel wheels, PU wheels have less wear force on the ground and will not damage the ground. Therefore, in some workplaces, small tank carriers with PU wheels need to be used to carry heavy objects when they need to carry heavy objects but are afraid of damaging the ground.

Generally speaking, the steel wheel has a large load capacity, which can be used to carry heavy objects with large tonnage, and can be used by customers who have no restrictions on the wear of the ground. The bearing capacity of PU wheel is slightly smaller, which is suitable for customers who have requirements for ground wear.
