Construction Jobs: Rubber Roll-Off Wheels

The principle material this product is comprised of is recycled rubber tires. Discs of 24-32 ply side-walls from off-road equipment scrap tires are the wear surface.


The discs are to be cut so that the outside diameter shall be the wear surface and an inside diameter shall fit over of a hub steel pipe. The discs are compressed onto the hub and held into place by end plates of 1/2" steel welded to the ends of the hub.

The diameter of the steel plates shall be 1" smaller than the outside diameter of the wheel.

 

Dimensions:
Outside diameter The outside of the rubber wheels are sized to accommodate some compression from a loaded container. The following lists the steel wheel sizes and rubber wheel sizes:

Designated size steel wheel o.d. Rubber wheel o.d.

  • 6" 6-5/8" 7"
  • 8" 8-5/8" 9"
  • 10" 10-3/4" 11"
  • 12" 12-3/4" 13"

Length
The lengths are measured from end to end. The standard lengths shall be 8", 10", 12"

Hub Size
The standard hub is made of 1-1/2" inside diameter steel pipe for use with an axle diameter of 1-3/8" to 1-7/16".
Optional sizes are 1" inside diameter, used on hook lift containers and 2" inside diameter.

Designation
When specifying a wheel, the first dimension is the diameter and the last dimension is the length.
