Elesa Introduces Polyurethane-Tyre RE.FF Range

Elesa's new Castor series includes the polyurethane-tyre RE.FF range with technopolymer wheels, suitable for loads of up to 750kg and for use on floors of tile, asphalt, cement/resin or similar. They suit industrial trolleys or transfer equipment of many types.

The RE.FF range features a double-ball race chassis in zinc-plated steel or in stainless steel for arduous environments and minimal turning resistance - an important factor in initial alignment when moving from rest. Traditional swivel and fixed chassis are complemented by total lock-braking versions, which operate to prevent wheel turning as well as castor rotation.

Wheel sizes are available from 80 to 150mm diameter with total height of 107 to 194mm. Chemical resistance of the RE.FF is good in relation to common industrial chemicals such as alcohols, glycols, weak organic and mineral acids, as well as water and saturated vapour, ensuring efficient use and castor longevity in temperatures from -20C to +80C.

Tyre Pressure Monitor Has All Wheels Covered

System includes precision aerospace pressure sensors, transmitters, receiver and all necessary mounting equipment in a carrying case. The Techmor TP-1 allows accurate measurement of tyre pressures while on the track or the road Outputting at 4Hz, the TP-1 provides a smooth datastream that makes subtle pressure variations on track visible. A transmitter mounted to each hub sends wireless messages to a single receiver mounted inside the car.

The pass-through titanium valve-stem sensor allows pressures to be checked and adjusted without removing hardware. Systems can be quickly installed on any standard Nascar hub and switched between wheel sets and cars with no extra equipment. Outputs are available in analogue, RS232 or CANbus. The system includes precision aerospace pressure sensors, transmitters, receiver and all necessary mounting equipment in a carrying case.
