Rhino track failier?
My team purchased the Rhino Tracks from Andy-Mark this year, but after driving with them, the pulleys (am-3298) have started to fall apart. The plastic is chipping around the bearing. Is anyone else having similar issues?

Did you use locate when you assembled them? Because that looks. Exactly. Like. When a student used locate on our wheels. One year some got. On the plastic and the locktite eats. A. Component of the plastic. And they fall. Apart

Re: Rhino track failier?
We just had the same breakage today. We are checking for more signs of weakness. Did you have more than one break??

Re: Rhino track failier?
these wheels where assembled with 6 bolts, 3 per side. we followed the manufactures construction. I think that it may come from a combination of over-tightening of the the track, or the force of the robot slamming into the ground after crossing a defense. We have broken 5 of these wheels so far. Is this happening for anyone else?
-thank you for any info you can give

Some plastics react badly (called crazing) to superglues (CAs in particular) and Loctite.

The bearings should be a slight press-fit into those pullys and should not need any glue. If they are a little loose, use a fender washer and spacer to keep them there.

Re: Rhino track failier?
no adhesives, only bolts. this is a very dense plastic, when it breaks it cracks it is a lot like obsidian, it forms very shiny surfaces

Re: Rhino track failier?
Just checked all that we have for our second bot and they have cracks in every one. Looks like it is from too tight of a fit with the bearing. Waiting for a reply from AndyMark.
