WINTERHOFF ST48-260LB jockey wheel 150kg 48mm 500-710mm
The ST48-260LB jockey wheel from WINTERHOFF features a 48mm diameter , 370mm long tube, ensuring a solid and stable construction. The total height of the tube, including the wheel, is 500mm , allowing for convenient adjustment to various drawbar heights.
Permissible load
The permissible load when parked is 150 kg , providing stable support for the trailer during loading, unloading, and parking. During maneuvering, the maximum load is 90 kg , ensuring safe rolling and positioning of the trailer without the risk of overloading the mechanism. Proper adherence to these limits ensures product durability and safe operation.
Extension length
The jockey wheel extension is 210 mm , providing an adequate range of drawbar height adjustment. The height of the jockey wheel with the wheel is 500 mm, and the maximum height with extension reaches 710 mm . This range allows for convenient adjustment of the trailer to various ground conditions and facilitates connecting and disconnecting it from the tow bar. The appropriate extension range increases comfort and stability when parked.
Crank with thrust bearing
The crank is equipped with a thrust bearing , which significantly improves comfort. The bearing reduces friction during operation, resulting in smoother and lighter crank movement . This means that raising and lowering the jockey wheel requires less force and is more comfortable, even under heavy loads.
Type of wheel
The 260 x 85 mm wheel is an inflatable wheel with a steel rim , providing better shock absorption and smoother trailer handling, especially on uneven surfaces. The air-filled tire effectively dampens vibrations and improves maneuverability. The steel rim reinforces the structure and increases resistance to loads and mechanical damage, ensuring durability in various conditions of use. An inflatable wheel differs from a solid rubber wheel in that it contains air, which allows it to better absorb shocks and uneven terrain. A solid rubber wheel is airless and therefore cannot be punctured, but it provides less vibration dampening.
Anti-corrosion protection
The jockey wheel is made of hot-dip galvanized steel, providing high-quality protection against corrosion and guaranteeing long service life even with intensive outdoor use. A thick layer of zinc effectively protects the steel components from moisture, road salt, and changing weather conditions, increasing the durability and resistance of the structure to damage.
A jockey wheel is a practical trailer accessory that stabilizes the trailer when parked and facilitates maneuvering and rolling the trailer around a yard, driveway, or campsite. It allows for convenient coupling and uncoupling of the trailer from the towbar, as well as precise positioning. Jockey wheels are designed to stabilize the trailer – they are not intended for lifting a loaded trailer . They are an ideal solution for cargo trailers, boat trailers, and caravans , increasing comfort and safety.
