Cast Polyurethane Couplings are impact, water, and oil resistant. They have the ability to absorb shocks and tensions, thus reducing the noise generated. Also, since the cast polyurethane couplings can come attached with teeth, they fit into their succeeding part very easily. Since the wheels fit perfectly, any misalignment can be tolerated easily. Polyurethane is extremely durable and the couplings that we manufacture at Plan Tech are also quite durable.
Cast Polyurethane couplings are widely used in the shipping and packaging industry. You can find them on the buffers of forklifts. The cast polyurethane couplings can withstand high temperatures and are wear resistant. Hence they can be used in places that experience heavy heat, like engines. Polyurethane can be cast into various shapes and colors, which brings a whole new design element onto the Cast Polyurethane Couplings. Their advantages are far better than those of plastic and metals as the cast polyurethane couplings performance is superior. This is the reason why they are widely used in many industries.
At PlanTech we have been producing the best quality Cast Polyurethane Couplings for over 30yrs! On custom orders, we can manufacture these cast polyurethane couplings of desired color, strength and size. Our streamlined manufacturing process makes sure that we generate quality couplings at a competitive cost. We utilize and process high-quality polyurethane and additives from world leading chemical companies. When it comes to creating Cast Polyurethane Couplings and custom polyurethane parts, there’s no material – be it an elastomer, plastic or metal – that stands up to abrasion like urethane does. In fact, in some reports, urethane is shown to be ten times more resistant than these materials. If you’re looking for custom urethane parts, there is no better option than using polyurethane.
While abrasion is often just seen as abrasion, there are specific movements that cause those fractures, nicks and bumps. Was it due to a fluke bump in the process? Something sliding on the custom part? Or something of high velocity that hit the part’s surface? While urethane is well suited to prevent against nearly all types of abrasion, it is best suited for the following:
- Sliding Abrasion
- Impingement Abrasion
These specific types of abrasions can really diminish the effects of your custom parts. Fortunately going with custom urethane parts is a viable, cost effective option that is incredibly resistant to abrasion.
