Alongside Extrathane®, Softhane® and Besthane Soft®, Besthane® is one of the four polyurethane treads developed by Blickle. Besthane® treads have 40% lower rolling and swivel resistance than the other polyurethane treads. This means that much less force is required to push or pull transport units carrying heavy loads. Besthane® tread also provides a particularly high level of dynamic load resistance, which is particularly useful when transporting sensitive materials. The tread is typically used for a variety of heavy duty applications on different transport units and machines in the machining and automotive industry. It can provide a load capacity of up to 12,000 kg at high speeds of up to 16 km/h.

The tread is frequently used for systems or transport units in the automotive industry, industrial trucks, machinery and machining industry.

The high-quality Blickle Extrathane® polyurethane tread is part of the extensive range of polyurethane treads developed by Blickle. The Extrathane® tread was developed on the back of Blickle’s decades of experience in this area to meet market demand and provide an outstanding set of characteristics. The tread is highly abrasion-resistant and has a high resistance to cut and tear propagation. This means that heavy duty wheels and heavy duty castors which use Blickle Extrathane® tread are also suitable for crossing thresholds and medium speeds.

The polyurethane-elastomer Blickle Softhane® is one of the four polyurethane treads developed by Blickle. The positive characteristics of the tread are the end result of many years of optimisation. The extra-thick elastic tread guarantees excellent operational comfort. It is especially gentle on the floor, abrasion-resistant and quiet. The green colour does not leave any tracks and is also non-staining. Softhane® is resistant to a wide range of aggressive substances, with the exception of aromatic solvents, hot water or steam. For a detailed overview, please refer to the Blickle guide. An antistatic version with a grey tread is also available. Other Shore hardness values and special colours are available on request.

This tread is typically used for transport units and systems in the automotive industry, intralogistics and applications involving particularly sensitive goods.

Light duty castors and wheels are mainly used for less demanding applications requiring a load capacity of up to 280 kg. They are designed for speeds of up to 3 km/h and therefore more frequently used indoors. The TPA, VPA, POES, PATH, VSTH and POA series are light duty series. A variety of treads are available, including thermoplastic rubber, solid rubber, soft rubber, thermoplastic polyurethane, Extrathane® or nylon, and all have different characteristics.

Typical applications of light duty castors are medical equipment, display bases or equipment for large-scale catering establishments"

The castors and wheels which are frequently used for medium loads are often capable of transporting heavy loads, albeit generally at the cost of operational comfort. The significant weight involved also tends to have a detrimental effect on the floor. Blickle’s premium rubber wheels and castors are designed for specific applications. In addition to ensuring good floor preservation, they are also easy to manoeuvre and provide a high level of operational comfort in their class. Blickle premium rubber can be divided into the following categories:Blickle Comfort two-component rubber, Blickle SoftMotion elastic solid rubber,
