Glen Lee Wheels
« on: August 16, 2016, 02:56:23 PM »
Want to make wheels for my own use out of convenience mostly and i want to make my own shapes. I can make any kind of mold I need but, what compound do you use?

I found Axson UR-3558 polyurethane that they use to make skateboard wheels. Haven't found where to get it from yet.

Talked to Glen he said he had to by a 5 gallon pail that cost 1000 something dollars, that's allot of wheels.

Not as hard as skateboard wheels he said, more like 60A hardness.

Still looking. The 1-1/2" wheels will measure close to 1-5/8ths. Called Glen Lee again and his phone's been disconnected.

Motorman - I've used polyurethane from Grainger or McMaster to beef up a trans mount. They sell it as a 1lb kit (base and hardener) in different hardness-es. Watch out though. It is really runny until it starts to thicken up.

Do you need wheels for wire gear or for flat aluminum gear?

Wire gear for a Perky but I could make a press together hub for the bolt on wheels.
