Crane wheels are generally cast or forged, then machined and finally heat treated to increase the surface hardness of their treads. They are mainly used in gantry cranes, port machinery, bridge cranes, mining machinery, etc. They are also called: crane wheels, crane wheel assemblies, etc.
Crane wheels are key components in a crane's operating mechanism, carrying heavy loads and ensuring safe operation along the intended track. The main types of wheels used in cranes include LD gear crane wheels, crane trolley wheels, and crane round bearing housing wheels, etc.
Crane wheels are the core components of a crane's operating mechanism, directly bearing the weight of the crane or trolley and enabling horizontal movement through rolling friction. Their performance directly impacts the crane's operating efficiency, stability, and service life.
