Polyurethane No-Crush Wheels – zero-crush rollers, metering wheels, or bottle spacer wheels, spider wheels – no matter what you call them, Meridian Laboratory has your solution!
Polyurethane no-crush wheels are designed to provide controlled pressure and contact to materials without causing damage. They are used extensively in industrial automation, packaging, and material handling applications where consistent yet non-destructive contact is required. ML6 polyurethane no-crush wheels are available in a wide variety of durometers, profiles, sizes, and configurations.
Standard ML6 polyurethane no-crush wheels are available bonded to a core or with no core at all for a slip-on fit. A variety of cores are available based on the function of the no-crush wheel and include drive roller, bushing, and bearing configurations.
Custom ML6 no-crush wheels are offered affordably with fast lead times. Meridian Laboratory specializes in high-quality, precision-engineered ML6 polyurethane no-crush wheels—whether you need a single prototype or full-scale production.
