WCP Pneumatic Wheels

Is anyone planning on using these? I'm just wondering how these wheels compare to the 8" AM wheels.

Re: WCP Pneumatic Wheels
Since there is a thread about this, we've gotten numerous emails about availability.
General note, any new orders since 1/14 will have a one week lag time. Customers before that will be getting hubs this week. Our goal is to get all customers taken care of by this weekend. Please email support@wcproducts.net for any further specific order questions. Thanks! |
Re: WCP Pneumatic Wheels
What are the weight of these?

Re: WCP Pneumatic Wheels
We built a fully functional prototype with these wheels this past weekend and have been pleased with the results.
Having a COTS live axel pneumatic wheel is a huge time saver for us! Thanks WCP! To answer the weight question, we weighed a diamond tread wheel (with hub) and got right around a pound. I can get a more exact number tonight. -Mike |
Re: WCP Pneumatic Wheels
it would be major awesome if you could post some videos of it in action.

We are going with an 8wd with the 6" diamond tread tires/tubes from WCP, but we are using the 6" pneumatic tire plastic hubs from AndyMark: http://www.andymark.com/product-p/am-2469.htm

We haven't received ours yet, and are designing around a 6 inch diameter. However our clearances between wheels are pretty tight and It'd be nice to know the real life diameter. |

Absolutely. I will take dimensions today and post. I assume you will want crown diameter and wheel width at various psi (I'm thinking 0-50 psi in 10 psi intervals?) I will also take an accurate weight today. Any other requests regarding this wheel? Sorry, can't post any video or pictures of our test base. But I'll make a base-less claim (pun intended!) and say we're killing the defenses this year, we are very happy with the results! -Mike |

Re: WCP Pneumatic Wheels
The width under load would be awesome. Contact patch measurements, etc.
Pretty much any measurement you could throw at us wouldn't go to waste. |
Re: WCP Pneumatic Wheels
RC,
Can you comment if these wheels are rated for Highway use? Kind Regards, |

That being said, we did shoot frisbees with them at 6krpm, which is 107 mph, so they'll totally be fine if you're not breaking the speed limit ;) |
