8 Inch Wheelchair Front Wheels - Disabled Anti-Slip Rubber Accessory

Had to replace one wheel as the bearings had gone and this was a good replacement.

Would have put no stars if there was an option. Sent the wheel back as only one supplied. Title says wheels and they are not rubber. Don't buy as they are overpriced for one wheel

So far these wheels appear to be okay fitted to a rollator that had solid plastic wheels. They have a PVC type of tyre which grips surfaces reasonably but not as good as a rubbertyre. The tyre functions well with the rollator brakes. One important dimension not clearly mentioned is the width of the hub across the bearings which is 43mm.The reason they don't get five stars is because the tyre is not rubber and it is normal engineering practice to have a metal spacer tube between the inner rings of the bearings and these wheels don't. The consequence is that you can't tighten the axle bolt up tight and clamp the inner race of the bearings because if you do the bearings won't rotate. If you have a self-locking nut on the bolt and not tighten it up tight the wheel will rotate. A normal nut will gradually unscrew through vibration. The downside to this fudge is that the inner rings of the bearings are not clamped and can rotate on the bolt. So the wheel is spinning on the bolt thread and not the ball bearings.

They were good quality wheels

Ideal replacement would be nice to have axle dimensions for fitting

The ad clearly says "wheels", that's why I bought it. Upon arrival today, only 1 wheel. I hate deceptive vendors. Sent back within 39 minutes of arriving.

Rip off price
