    Superior Tire & Rubber Corp.’s team of engineers have developed a revolutionary load wheel design that will change the industry. The patent pending Velocity™ wheel significantly reduces weight, improves life of the compound, and increases carrying capacity. The Velocity™ wheel was created with the sole purpose of replacing the outdated traditional solid steel hub which was prone to heat build up and unnecessary weight - this not only saves us with manufacturing burden, it saves customers money through lower shipping charges and fewer replacement cycles.

    How does it hold up in long runs?

    How does it hold up to impact?

    Isn’t aluminum weaker than steel? Is it strong enough?

    What sizes are available?

    Can I buy these through my OEA program?

    How much do they cost compared to traditional?

    Where can I find cross reference information for OEM part numbers

    Is it covered under a warranty?

    Can I buy these without factory pressed bearings?

    How does it run cooler?

    What compounds are available for the Velocity™?

    HeatSink™ Technology:

    Using thermal imaging, the Velocity™ hub clearly shows a dissipation of heat through the vents and away from the bond and material. Max operating temperature is reduced by up to 10%, preventing it from reaching damaging temperatures and extending wear-life and bond strength.

    Cushothane® XL™ Compound for Load Wheels:

    • 97A Durometer.
    • Higher Load Capacity Compound.
    • Highest Duty Cycle Tolerance.
    • XL3™ Bonding - No Bond Separation Guaranteed*.

    “We run a 24/7 operation in a 900k sq ft facility and these Velocity™ wheels have more than doubled our worklife!"

    - Juan A., Sherwin Williams - Romeoville, IL

    “The Velocity wheels have been installed and running for over 7 months with absolutely no issues at all. They are being utilized in an aggressive, three-shift warehouse. Very impressive!"

    - Resident Technician - EV Logistics, Vancouver, CA

    “We ran the Velocity™ wheels on our Crown® standup reach trucks for three months.  They outperformed the wheels we were using by 80%.  They held up on different floor surfaces so much better and offered a smoother ride.  We were blowing out our previous load wheels dailty because of objects on the floor.  These really stood up!"
