How to check the quality of gate wheels in three steps

How to check the quality of gate wheels in three steps

When you get a gate wheel, the first thing to check is,of course,the appearance. A good gate wheel has a smooth surface and is evenly galvanized without noticeable scratches or bumps. On the contrary, the poor quality gate wheels produced by many low-end small factories have a poor surface finish, and the galvanization process is backward, resulting in poor door wheel perception.

Then, if conditions permit, we can place the gate wheel on the track and gently roll to see if the scrolling is smooth. Of course, if you don’t have a track at hand, we can use the thumb and index finger to pinch the center of the bearing and use the other hand to dial the wheel to see if the wheel can roll smoothly. For wheels with brackets, in addition to checking whether rolling is smooth, you also need to observe the assembly of brackets. For example, wheels with brackets produced by some small workshops often have deformed brackets or incorrect wheel positions.

If there are no problems in the first two steps, then this wheel appears to be a qualified product. But how durable it is, we can’t conclude in a short time. Therefore, the most important thing is to choose a high-quality supplier and choose products with exquisite materials. Taking bearings as an example, the difference in price between high-quality bearings and low-quality bearings is several times, and the service life is naturally different.
