V Groove Wheels 3" thru 10" V Grooved Wheels - Cast Iron & Ductile Iron V-Groove Wheels V-groove caster wheels are specially designed to be used on inverted angle iron tracks. These V-Groove Wheels are made to guide equipment or specially designed carts by rolling on inverted angle iron tracks. Raised tracks such as angle iron tracks are designed to allow the equipment, cart, or gates to roll easily without obstructions or floor debris that you would normally experience with a standard caster or wheel that is used on a floors surface. Angle tracks are much more efficient since they are elevated off of the floor. Standard Iron V-Groove wheels are great for medium duty applications such as medium duty equipment, carts, and gates typically seen on residential homes or commercial businesses. Ductile Iron V-Groove Wheels are much stronger and do not wear as quickly as a standard cast iron v groove wheel due to its higher density and increased tensile strength. When not used on an angle track the wheels have two flat sides on either side of the groove to allow you to roll your equipment or cart on a standard concrete floor without damaging the groove. We highly recommend your track to be level and straight when using v-groove wheels to ensure the safety of the equipment and any personnel that could be near. If you are running multiple tracks we recommend they be parallel with one another and the same height so the wheels don't run off of the track. V-Groove Wheels are best combined with a roller bearing to handle the load capacity and they have very little play between the bearing and the caster frame that holds the wheel. If extremely heavy loads are required we recommend upgrading the bearing to a taper bearing which can support radial and thrust loads much better than a ball bearing or roller bearing.



If your application is going to have any abuse or impact we highly recommend you choose a Ductile Iron V Groove Wheel instead of a standard Cast Iron V Groove Wheel as the ductile iron wheel can withstand much more impact, shock, and heavy loads than a standard cast iron wheel. We do not recommend you use v-groove wheels on poor floor conditions with debris, or obstructions. If your application uses a power tugger or power tow to move the cart or equipment we highly recommend you use the ductile iron wheels for increased durability, strength, and reliability. Do not roll these over 3-MPH or a faster than a standard manual walking speed.



We also see many applications for Barn Door V Groove Wheels. These V-Groove Wheels have the same groove width (7/8") as most standard barn door applications. If you are looking to upgrade or replace your barn door wheel you may choose a size that you see fit as these are interchangeable with most barn door tracks. Please be sure to match the current wheel size / diameter before ordering unless you are using a custom barn door design then you can order any size you see fit. Questions?
