zenith rubber contact wheels

 

  1. All Zenith wheels are manufactured from high grade nitrile compounded rubber this means that no matter what your use, with or without cutting or polishing compound, you get the best quality wheel available.
  2. Greater rubber thickness on these wheels gives longer life.
  3. The tooth form is designed to give a more aggressive cut thus increasing your speed of material removal or polishing.
  4. Fast and secure refitting of change over rims.
  5. As most common change over rims are available ex-stock there is no time loss waiting for wheels to be revulcanised.
  6. Being of good solid construction this wheel is well suited to machine applications (the casting gives a solid back up for this purpose)
  7. We carry a large stock supply of all standed sizes and durometers, thus allowing for quick delivery.
  8. All wheels are ground on both their face and sides concentric to their bores,thus allowing the wheel to operate vibration free on both hand and machine applications.
  9. Duro meters available from 30 to 90
  10. Both plain face and serrated wheels available ex-stock.

Serrated (grooved) rubber contact wheels

Give a cooler cutting action, longer belt life and a more aggressive cut.

Plain faced rubber contact wheels

Give a less aggressive cut, removes less material and gives a more highly polished finish.

When ordering always specify:

  • Diameter
  • Width of wheel
  • Bore Diameter
  • Hardness-(Durometer)of rubber
  • Plain or serrated rubber face
