Algood's Wheel Chemical Chart
The chemical resistance chart below outlines the crucial assessment of Algood's wheel material compatibility, reviewing the chart ensures optimal performance and durability in diverse chemical environments.
A = Excellent Resistance
B = Good Resistance
C = Fair Resistance
D = Not Recommended
Warning: The information in this chart is to be used ONLY as a guide in selecting caster wheel for appropriate chemical compatibility. Before permanent installation, test the caster with the chemicals and under the specific conditions of your application.
Ratings of chemical behavior listed in this chart apply at a 48-hr exposure period. Algood has no knowledge of possible effects beyond this period. Algood does not warrant (neither express nor implied) that the information in this chart is accurate or complete or that any material is suitable for any purpose.
