Avoid forklift accidents: 3 tips for wheel safety hazards and Skystone polyurethane forklift wheel solutions

In logistics warehousing and manufacturing, electric forklifts are core equipment for improving efficiency, but their safety is often underestimated. According to statistics, about 15% of forklift accidents are directly related to wheel problems, including serious consequences such as rollover, slipping and loss of control. As the only part of the forklift that contacts the ground, the performance of the wheel directly affects operational safety and operating costs. Polyurethane (PU) material is gradually becoming the preferred material for industrial forklift wheels due to its excellent wear resistance, chemical corrosion resistance and stability. This article will analyze 3 safety hazards caused by wheels, and introduce how Skystone polyurethane forklift wheels can avoid risks through innovative design to build a solid safety line for your company.

Hazard 1: Insufficient wheel pressure-the invisible killer of rollover and increased energy consumption

Skystone polyurethane wheel solution

Skystone's full range of polyurethane solid wheels use high-density polyurethane composite materials, which do not require inflation and completely eliminate the need for wheel pressure maintenance. Its uniform pressure distribution can stably support high-tonnage loads, and its anti-deformation ability is 50% higher than that of traditional rubber wheels. It is particularly suitable for high-frequency, high-load cold chain warehousing and port operation scenarios, eliminating the risk of rollover from the root.

Hidden danger 2: wheel aging and cracking - a time bomb for sudden wheel blowout

Skystone polyurethane wheels use high-quality polyurethane formulas, and through nano-level carbon fiber reinforcement technology, the material's tear resistance is greatly improved, achieving a zero wheel blowout record in extreme scenarios such as chemical industry and metallurgy.

Hidden danger 3: Wheel hub-wheel delamination - load imbalance and abnormal vibration

Skystone's self-developed casting molding process directly pours polyurethane raw materials into special alloy wheels under a vacuum environment to form a molecular-level bonding interface. After testing, the bonding strength is high. Combined with the shock-absorbing cavity design inside the wheel hub, the equipment operating noise can be reduced to below 70dB, which is particularly suitable for quiet scenes such as hospitals and food workshops.

Why choose Skystone polyurethane forklift wheels?

As a leader in polyurethane industrial wheel technology, Skystone has 23 core patents, and its products have achieved breakthroughs in the industry. Its products are compatible with mainstream brands such as Toyota, Linde, and Hangcha. After the customer replaced the enwheel factory with Skystone polyurethane wheels, the wheel replacement cycle was extended.
