WSCS polyurethane wheel and castor

Rollercoaster wheels and guide wheels run at speed under a calculated load. The polyurethane tread, bearing and side clearance are taken from the ride drawing. A separate guide wheel, often a smaller polyurethane wheel or nylon wheel, keeps the car on the rail. Each position is documented before production.
