Gotcha. However, to everyone else reading the thread, they still do have the 6" hub in stock: http://www.andymark.com/product-p/am-2469.htm

The tire and tube for this sized wheel can be purchased from McMaster-Carr: http://www.mcmaster.com/#2717t55/=10mwsgw, as well as a variety of other sources.

I recommend teams looking for pneumatic wheels to check out skyway They have various sizes for pneumatic wheels and not all of it is listed on their website.

Do you have recommendations on how to integrate these into the KOP?

They'll custom make hubs and they can also put keyed hubs into the wheel or bearings.

Andymark doesn't have the TIRES and TUBES. but you know what, that is a pretty common size you can just about get anywhere else.

Andymark has the HUB instock, that is the best part. Purchase the hubs you need then maybe look somewhere else for the tire and tube. It's a metric size of 200 x 50 is the tire you are looking for. In some cases, they even sell FOAM FILLED tires. Here is a link to eBay with numerous choices.

You can atleast buy some eBay tires to test your proto-typing to buy you some "time" if you really want the kewl Andymark brand.

Happy shopping and sourcing...


EDIT...well YESTERDAY Andymark had hubs in stock...not today...LOL... Oh well....I tried.

I put in an order for 8 yesterday at 12:30pm, yet to get shipping..does not bode well.

The 10" Pneumatic and the 12.5" Pneumatic comes with a 3/16" keyway so that should be pretty easy to adapt with andymark hub or sprocket.

I'm willing to bet that the 8" and 6" versions with the 5/16" bearings can be easily adapted with a hub from andy mark or one of their wheel mounting kits + sprocket

According to their order form Prices are very good too..$25 for the 10" or 12.5" and $18 for the 8" or 6".
