Frequently Asked Questions
Advantages of Rubber Wheels
Rubber wheels are a versatile and widely used solution for smooth, controlled, and reliable mobility. At TENTE, our portfolio includes a variety of rubber compounds and tread designs — from soft, elastic blends that offer excellent floor protection and comfort to harder, wear-resistant rubbers optimised for durability and efficient rolling. By selecting the right rubber hardness and tread profile for the operating environment, you can achieve the perfect balance of grip, noise reduction, rolling resistance, and longevity — making these wheels adaptable to diverse performance requirements.
TENTE rubber castor wheels offer several key benefits:
Versatile Grip and Traction – Depending on the rubber compound, these wheels can provide excellent surface adhesion, reducing slippage on smooth or slightly uneven floors. Softer compounds enhance traction, while harder rubbers prioritise rolling efficiency.
Floor Protection – Non-marking rubber options prevent scuffing and damage on delicate floors, ensuring a clean, professional appearance over time.
Optimised Noise and Comfort – Softer rubber treads naturally dampen vibrations and rolling noise, especially on hard, smooth surfaces like tiles or polished concrete. Harder compounds generate slightly more noise but provide better efficiency and durability on robust floors.
Efficient Rolling Performance – With the right combination of tread hardness and floor compatibility, rubber wheels minimize rolling resistance, making them well-suited for frequent transport and long-term reliability.
Types of Rubber Wheels
Rubber wheels come in a wide range of designs, tread compositions, and load capacities, making it possible to choose the ideal solution for nearly any mobility requirement. At TENTE, our portfolio includes options from small, lightweight wheels for compact applications to heavy-duty solutions built for high-performance equipment. While the tread material and wheel design are key factors in performance, the type of housing in which the wheels are used also plays a critical role in determining their overall load capacity, durability, and operating suitability. Selecting the right combination of wheel and housing ensures optimal functionality, safety, and service life. Below are some of the commonly used types of rubber castor wheels:
Small Rubber Wheels
Small rubber wheels are designed for applications where compact size and controlled manoeuvrability are required. They are available with different rubber compound treads and hardness levels, allowing them to adapt to different floor conditions and performance needs. Load capacity and durability vary significantly depending on both the wheel design and the type of housing they are paired with – for example, lightweight plastic housings are suitable for lower-load scenarios, while reinforced steel housings enable higher strength and stability. One representative product line in our range are our DIK wheels using the TENTE Puretech non-marking solid rubber as a tread material. These small rubber wheels use a wheel body made from sheet steel and are available with a 50 mm wheel diameter as the smallest option. These wheels are commonly used in our Agila or Agila twin castors.
Solid Rubber Wheels
Solid rubber wheels are designed for excellent stability and wear resistance. Depending on the tread hardness, they can provide balanced performance between rolling efficiency, grip, and vibration damping. These wheels are commonly used in environments where reliability and consistency are critical. When paired with robust housing types, such as heavy-duty pressed steel, solid rubber wheels can support significantly higher load capacities while maintaining a long service life. Our FVP wheels using Puretech solid rubber are one example from our product portfolio. They are available with wheel diameters of up to 300 mm and can bear static loads of up to 1600 kg, 960kg at 4 km/h and 800 kg at 6 km/h. These solid rubber wheels are commonly used in our Kappa or Kappa load castors.
Fields of Application for Rubber Wheels
Rubber wheels are used across a wide variety of industries thanks to their adaptability and performance. Their suitability for specific applications depends on factors such as tread hardness, wheel size, and the type of castor housing used. In healthcare environments, they are commonly fitted on patient lifters, recliners, treatment chairs, bedside tables, and shower chairs, providing smooth, quiet mobility while protecting sensitive flooring. In industrial settings, rubber wheels support automated shuttle systems, forklift trucks, and roll containers, delivering reliable rolling performance across different surface conditions. Within furniture and mobile applications, they are often integrated into catering carts, meal delivery systems, and furniture, ensuring comfortable handling and low-noise operation. By selecting the right tread hardness and matching it to the floor type, rubber castor wheels can be configured for optimal performance — from delicate indoor surfaces requiring non-marking properties to demanding industrial environments where durability and efficient rolling are essential.
