keithm Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Why do you need felt, lots of issues with them and there are modern alternatives which we have in stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathews Posted February 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 I like the softness it gives over the nylon wheels when finishing certain things. Whats the alternative? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithm Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Soft polyurethane, they are unique and we have them made for Orthopaedic applications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelCityShoes Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 What are the advantages over felt, Keith? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithm Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 The advantages over felt are that they are very durable and they don't suffer the flat spotting of felt wheels, only available for the 700 series machines though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathews Posted February 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 They sound good. Are they as soft as the felt though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithm Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 We have been supplying these wheels for orthopaedic applications for some 2 years following our own in house development, we have no issues and the response in the Healthcare trusts that use them is excellent. Contact Gary in the office for prices, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
