looking through the catalogs for hours...... i saw an auto-locking shaft collar to keep wheels in place. i was wondering if anyone has tried these babies?

if you have used other stuff better than these that would allow for easy wheel disassembling or realigning, please do post that as well...

if i get annoyed i'm gonna gluegun those shafts!

Anton,
Last year after regionals (where we stripped 2 FP hubs) we zip tied the wheelchair wheels to the hubs after notching the WHEEL for the hub and then we used auto body epoxy on them to make shure they wouldent go anywhere. The heat the epoxy generated started to deform the plastic hubs. hehe
now on to my point.
I would try the hubs that small parts is offereing for the wheelchairwheels. or drive the wheels with a sprocket mounted on it and let it run on the shaft. so basically your driveing the wheel and not the shaft.

As far as the couplings I would try just some set screw ones if they are just holding the wheel in a certain position on the shaft. A good idea is to drill slightly into the shaft where the set screw will go to make shure that it doesent come out.

I hope you can understand my babble....... im going to bed now hehe

aye...

the babble helped me to understand the point.

thanks for the info.

we are going mount the shafts and let the wheels spin on them for sure.... we just wanna make sure the wheels stay in place as the sprockets are on them as well.
