This year our team did a bunch of testing for traction on both the carpet and the bridge between kit wheels, roughtop, and wedgetop. We found that the kit wheels worked on both surfaces the best. The next best tread was the wedgetop. Roughtop works great on carpet but had the least traction on the bridge. We have used roughtop for year and love the grip on carpet and it wears better than wedgetop. It also has to do with which material you choose. McMaster-Carr carries both types under inclined conveyor belting. It cuts easily on the table saw and a good pair of fiskars will cut right through it to get it to length.
