When choosing a cart, consider a few of the most important factors: type, design and wheels.
1) Type of carts. In order to choose the type of cart you need, you need to decide for what purposes and tasks it is being bought. If it will be the transportation of small loads (up to 200 kg), then you can use universal hand carts with two wheels. If you need to transport cargo between floors, then for these purposes there are special trolleys - stair trolleys. If you need to transport large loads on a flat surface, then the platform trolley will be the most suitable.
2) Trolley design. The design of the trolley should be selected not only for its pleasant appearance, several other details are also important here - the nature of the cargo. If you are planning to transport a large number of small boxes, then you need to buy a cart with sides. If you need to frequently and quickly unload and load a cart, it is better to purchase a platform cart that does not have sides.
3) Wheels for carts . Perhaps the most important and important thing when choosing a trolley is the question of its wheel supports. In order for your cart to serve for a long time and successfully, you need to choose the wheels correctly.
Large diameter trolley wheels allow you to load it with heavy objects. For uneven surfaces, larger than average wheels are also needed.
There are several types of trolley wheels:
- Hardware (medical, for sales areas) - are distinguished by good strength and high stability.
- Heavy-duty - have increased strength of tires and mountings. Suitable for loads from 300 kg. Wheels for this type of trolley are often made of polyurethane.
- Heat-resistant - used in ovens or other rooms with high or low temperatures. Such wheels will ensure trouble-free operation of the trolley in temperatures from -100 to 300 degrees Celsius. Very often, these are the wheels that are installed on trolleys in bakeries. This durability is due to the fact that they are made of aluminum, often have rubber tires.
