Round Nylon Bar
Posted: Tue Aug 22, 2017 11:28 am
I have a pallet truck with tandem load wheels. All the bearings need to be replaced and one set have locked up so that nylon wheel rotates around the bearing which means a badly worn wheel. Checking with those that supply such items I realised that it would be far cheaper to buy some nylon bar, bore a hole through the middle, machine a recess for the bearing at each end and thus make my own wheels.
However, my knowledge of the various materials available is next to nothing.
It is possible to buy something called "Nylon 6" but whether that is suitable for the load wheels is unknown. Does anyone have any recommendations please?
