Caster material identification method

May 04, 2023

Casters can be divided into super artificial rubber castors, polyurethane casters, plastic casters, nylon casters, steel casters, high temperature resistant casters, rubber casters, and S type artificial casters according to the material. Many customers don't know much about the casters. Many small processing plants that do not have research and development capabilities at the time of purchase have specialized in imitating the color and appearance of some brand products. They use substandard materials and some counterfeit materials to subcontract and mix the beads and use extremely low The price disrupts the market and leads to unneeded purchases. How can we solve this problem? A few common materials for industrial casters are introduced to a simple identification method - "combustion method". The material is identified according to the flame, smoke odor, and burned ash when burning:

(1) High-temperature nylon casters: The burning condition is the same as that of the PA material, but there is a white powder on the surface after burning.

(2) Polypropylene casters: easy to burn, with a faint taste of plastic, the surface melts evenly when burned, and sticky.

(3) Polyurethane casters: The casters are flammable, light white smoke when burning, easy to melt, no irritating odor, and sticky filaments.

(4) Nylon casters: Non-combustible, charred odor when burned, blistering after burning, and sticky.

(5) Polyvinyl chloride castors: It is flammable. When it burns, it has denser black smoke. It has a pungent odor. The caster is not sticky, and the burned surface shows black toner.
