Material search

I'm looking for a material that meets the following criteria:
--can take 87lbs load force (or more)
--no turbulent friction between aluminum and pavement

It should also be light and relatively cheap.

This is for a non-FIRST application. If anyone can point me in the right direction, please do so.
