Urethane Scooter Wheels – Best Scooter Wheels!

Urethane scooter wheels that are manufactured by Plan Tech are known for their durability. The different types of durometer specified are what indicates the rigidness of the urethane. The higher the Durometer, the more rigid the urethane will be, for example, an 88A is more rigid than 80A.

While “softer” urethane gives better grip to the wheel of the scooter, more speed is provided with “harder” urethane scooter wheels. Also, the resistance to roll is lowered with more “rebound” which causes the wheel to bear more energy and roll faster. During rotation, the urethane scooter wheels compress and rise. Energy is required by the compression which causes resistance to rolling, and this slows the wheel. However, the bearings of our urethane scooter wheels, enable the wheel to roll smoothly with minimal friction during motion and they are kept from each other at an equal distance by a cage or retainer.

Also, our urethane scooter wheel bearings are rated under the Annual Bearing Evaluation Committee (ABC) and as a result, they guarantee a higher standard of precision such as tighter tolerances, wear resistance, long service life and reduced frictional force during motion, etc. Little wonder our urethane scooters wheels are renowned for being second to none in the industry.

Whether you are a start-up company or global leader, we can add value to your products with our strong engineering support, polyurethane application expertise and constant focus on meeting all delivery requirements. Our rapid prototyping capabilities have also received particularly positive feedback – we frequently go from “Print to Part” with urethane scooter wheels in 10-15 business days. Everything we manufacture is MADE IN THE USA and our production capabilities include:

• In-house custom mold manufacture
• Waterjet cut urethane parts
