Nylacron™ Wheels
Acorn™ Industrial Products Co has been the leading pioneer in the utilization of cast polyamides for caster and wheel applications in the USA since 1990 under the trademark name Nylacron™. Nylacron™ is a heat stabilized and stress relieved cast nylon 6 with MoS2 added to prevent premature wear. This feature makes Acorn’s Nylacron™ wheels unique in the industry.

Ergonomic Safety and Zero Maintenance:
Nylacron™ wheels replace cast iron, steel, stainless steel, phenolic, solid elastomer and urethane wheels in casters and wheels where the application calls for high load capacity, impact resistance, easy rolling as well as floor protection. Nylacron™ wheels are ideal for moist environments, washdown applications and can even be used completely submerged under water. The casting process for Nylacron™ increases the load capacity over Phenolics, has no fillers and the lowest coefficient of friction. Since Nylacron™ wheels are straight sided, a wide array precision bearings can be installed in the wheel hub for far better rollability under a full load with longer life. Ergonomic safety and zero maintenance define our Nylacron™ wheels.

Acorn's Production Facility & Capabilities:
Acorn has state-of-the-art CNC manufacturing and production facilities to produce standard and custom Nylacron™ wheels in both short and long runs as required. We can produce Nylacron™ wheels in any diameter up to 51” with sealed precision ball bearings (standard and stainless steel). Nylacron™ wheels are suitable for use in any caster rig presently in service or required in both the USA and Blickle®pe. Acorn’s wheel division makes all its own bushings on CNCs to fit any wheel to the inside hub length of the caster rig.

Our Engineering Catalog Shows:
1. Nylacron™ MoS2 heat stabilized straight-sided wheels for caster applications (most popular type)
2. Nylacron™ MONOCAST natural (or blue) non-heat stabilized (FDA approved)
3. Nylacron™ single and double flanged wheels in many sizes (especially well suited where steel wheels are currently in use)
4. Nylacron™ V-Grooved wheels in both heat stabilized MOS2 or monocast. (black, natural or blue)
5. Nylacron™ wheels standard or custom made to print for any industrial application up to 51” in diameter.
