Trommel Wheels for the Waste And Recycling Industry
In the fast-paced and abrasive world of recycling, equipment needs to perform reliably under pressure. Trommel screens—used for sorting and sizing recyclable materials—depend on durable components to keep operations moving efficiently. Clifton Rubber’s trommel wheels are purpose-built to meet these demands, offering a high-performance solution that ensures smooth trommel rotation, reduces maintenance, and enhances overall screening efficiency.
Custom Trommel Wheel Manufacturer & Supplier for the Waste & Recycling Industry
What Are Trommel Wheels?
Trommel wheels are heavy-duty rubber or polyurethane-coated wheels that support and guide the rotation of trommel screens in recycling machinery. These wheels bear the load of the rotating drum and help maintain consistent motion, even under the strain of continuous use and exposure to harsh materials. Clifton Rubber’s trommel wheels are designed to withstand the high levels of wear, impact, and environmental exposure typical in recycling applications.
Key Features of Clifton Rubber’s Trommel Wheels:
- Premium Rubber or Polyurethane Compounds: Engineered for excellent wear resistance and load-bearing capacity.
- Precision Moulded for Performance: Ensures a secure fit and optimal performance on all major trommel screen models.
- Low Friction Surface: Promotes smooth rotation and reduces strain on motors and frames.
- UV, Chemical & Abrasion Resistant: Withstands extreme operating environments.
- Custom Sizes Available: Tailored to suit individual trommel specifications and operational requirements.
