mathews 35 Report post Posted February 20, 2017 I like the softness it gives over the nylon wheels when finishing certain things. Whats the alternative? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteelCityShoes 199 Report post Posted February 21, 2017 What are the advantages over felt, Keith? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keithm 226 Report post 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mathews 35 Report post Posted February 25, 2017 They sound good. Are they as soft as the felt though? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keithm 226 Report post 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
