Component Specifications

Definition
The Wheel Mounting Bracket is a precision-engineered structural component that attaches wheels to trolley frames in material handling systems. It provides a rigid interface between the wheel axle and frame, ensuring proper alignment, load transfer, and operational stability. This component typically features mounting holes, reinforcement ribs, and surfaces machined to specific tolerances to maintain wheel parallelism and prevent premature wear.
Working Principle
The bracket functions as a load-bearing interface that transfers vertical and lateral forces from the trolley frame to the wheel assembly. It maintains precise wheel alignment through rigid mounting surfaces and secure fastening points, ensuring smooth rolling motion while distributing operational stresses evenly across the frame structure.
Materials
Typically manufactured from structural steel (S355JR/EN 10025), stainless steel (AISI 304/316 for corrosive environments), or aluminum alloy (6061-T6 for lightweight applications). Material thickness ranges from 6-12mm depending on load capacity requirements.
Technical Parameters
  • Weight 2-8 kg depending on size and material
  • Load Capacity 500-5000 kg
  • Surface Finish Powder coating or galvanization for corrosion protection
  • Dimensional Tolerance ±0.5mm on critical mounting surfaces
  • Mounting Hole Pattern Standardized for common wheel sizes
Standards
ISO 2768, DIN 15018, ISO 12100
