6" Aluminum Wheel Hub

[itsjustmrb]

Does anyone have a source, other than West Coast Products, to purchase 6" aluminum wheel hubs? We would prefer that they have a 1/2" hex bore, but it is not required.

Do you want pneumatic wheels specifically? And does the hub have to be aluminum and not plastic like the AndyMark wheels?

Also, you mentioned that the hex bore wasn't necessary; don't expect to find other wheels with hex bores. As far as pneumatic wheels go, WCP is the only vendor to sell any with the 1/2" hex.

As far as I know, they are the only supplier of these for FRC.

You can bolt an andymark of vex hub to the Andymark 6" pneumatic wheels if needed.

If you are in a pickle PM me. I have around eight brand new ones sitting around. I'm not in a hurry to get rid of them but not opposed to parting with them either.

I wouldn't be opposed to doing a run of these in our mills, if there's some demand for them. RC, if you're reading this thread, we can run them here if you need more in stock, and if Mark is busy.

I'm interested. For everyone we will have these in stock by December in a large qty. Atm our local state side vendor has been super busy so it has delayed is getting them.

There are also updates to the 6 inch model that allows them to accept 8 inch tires so you only need one hub from here on out.

Awesome!

If you want pneumatic wheels you could try looking up off-road longboard wheels. You would have to make a hub for it though. I've been wanting to try them but haven't gotten around to it. When I looked at them there are aluminum hubs and seperate tires and you could get different tread patterns.
