Travelator wheel, diameter 125 mm.
A specialised running gear component for travelator systems with higher demands on load capacity and service life. The increased diameter improves ride smoothness and reduces the specific load on the working surface: the wheel retains its geometry longer and wears less even under continuous operation and high passenger traffic. Suitable for travelators in large shopping centres, airports, transport hubs, and other facilities with intensive use.
Key advantages:
- Larger diameter to reduce wear and improve comfort. The 125 mm diameter provides a bigger contact area with the guide and lower specific load per unit area — this extends the wheel’s service life and makes the belt movement smoother, eliminating jerks and vibrations.
- Stable grip and precise geometry. The wheel’s profile and dimensions are engineered to match standard travelator guides: this ensures a reliable path, prevents misalignment, slippage, and uneven wear of adjacent system components.
- Wear‑resistant working layer. Polyurethane or composite material is highly resistant to abrasion, retains elasticity and strength despite temperature and humidity fluctuations. The material keeps its properties during long‑hour operation and withstands high contact loads.
- Reinforced hub and bearing assembly. The design is built for extended rotation cycles and sustained operation under heavy use.
- Resistance to external factors. The wheel is resistant to dust, moisture, contamination, and household cleaning agents used during regular cleaning in public areas. This is especially important for high‑traffic facilities and those with frequent wet cleaning.
- Minimal noise level. Material selection and precise surface finishing ensure quiet operation — this meets noise‑level requirements for public spaces and enhances passenger comfort.
