🛞 Why Choose a Pneumatic Wheel?
A pneumatic wheelbarrow wheel is designed for maximum comfort and shock absorption on rough and uneven surfaces.
- ✔ Air-filled tyre for superior shock absorption
- ✔ Ideal for gravel, dirt, and construction sites
- ✔ Reduces vibration and operator fatigue
- ✔ Better traction on soft ground
Compared to solid wheels, pneumatic tyres deliver a smoother ride but require occasional air maintenance.
🔄 Pneumatic vs Solid Wheelbarrow Wheels
- Pneumatic Wheel: Best for rough terrain, soft ground, construction sites
- Solid PU Wheel: Best for flat surfaces, warehouses, zero-maintenance use
If your work involves uneven outdoor ground, pneumatic wheels are the preferred choice for comfort and control.
📏 How to Choose the Correct Bore Size
This wheel uses a 25.4mm (1 inch) bore. It must match your axle size exactly.
- 16mm – Light duty wheelbarrows
- 19mm – Medium duty applications
- 20mm – Heavy duty construction use
- 25mm / 25.4mm – Industrial grade wheelbarrows
⚠ Always measure your axle with a vernier caliper. Do not estimate by eye. Incorrect sizing is the most common cause of returns.
