We specialise in High Load & High Speed Wheel Coverings with expertise to engineer wheels to suit your application. Wheel Coverings should be viewed differently to Roller Coverings as factors such Load, Stress and deflection play a greater role in the longevity of the Rubber or Polyurethane Covering.
