FAQ
Is this gate wheel pneumatic or inflatable?
No. This gate wheel features a solid rubber tire that does not require inflation. It is flat-free and will not lose air or develop punctures like a traditional pneumatic tire.
Can this be used as a replacement for a pneumatic gate wheel?
It can be used as a flat-free replacement or upgrade for compatible gate support wheels. Before installation, confirm the mounting dimensions, gate frame size, clearance, and required load capacity. It is not a universal replacement for every pneumatic gate wheel.
How much weight can it support?
Each wheel supports up to 750 lb under properly installed conditions. Actual performance depends on the gate structure, mounting surface, installation method, and ground conditions.
What types of gates are compatible?
The included hardware supports many wood and metal gate applications, including driveway gates, farm gates, ranch gates, pipe gates, tube-frame gates, chain-link gates, vinyl gates, PVC gates, and aluminum gates. Verify the mounting dimensions before installation.
Can it roll on uneven terrain?
Yes. The solid rubber tire is designed for outdoor surfaces such as grass, gravel, dirt, concrete, and uneven driveways. The built-in spring helps the wheel maintain contact as the gate moves across minor changes in ground level.
Does the wheel have a brake?
No. This is a swivel gate support wheel without a built-in brake.
How much spring travel does it have?
The spring travel space is approximately 1-7/8 in, and the overall height is approximately 8-3/4 in.
What is included?
The kit includes 6 hex bolts with nuts and washers for wood gates, 3 U-bolts for round or square metal frames, and a dual open-ended wrench.
