Hey there, @Michael79594, and welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here.

Unfortunately, we don’t have any more information than what is available on our webpage.

I have reached out to the GoBilda team about the weight rating of their tires in the past but they’ve not been able to supply adequate data without a clear idea of the build you would be using.

If you could tell me your use case for the tires and the design of the vehicle you would be assembling, I can pass that information along to GoBilda.

Standard 4 wheel vehicle, load would be 40kg.

Hi Michael
Welcome.
I think Jane might need a bit more information to take to GoBilda.

Firstly I think what is your definition of a “standard” 4 wheel vehicle. Could be like comparing a Mini Minor to a Westinghouse rubber tyre Bull Dozer. Both could be regarded as “standard” in their own area of use while being individually vastly different.

For instance are the wheels relying solely on a motor shaft for support , or are the wheels separately supported on the chassis on one side, or are they supported on the chassis on both sides. All possible and would have quite a bearing on what the max load figure for the vehicle was.

Or you might get a load figure for the wheel itself for each individual one disregarding any mounting system which would be left entirely up to you. I don’t see why you can’t get this as it should have nothing to do with GoBilda. If you want to overload a wheel that is your business.

Looking at these wheels I don’t think the max load would be that great. I could be quite wrong but I reckon it would be governed by the weakest part which looking at the pic would seem to be the rollers and their axles and support. I just note the side plates are steel which is somewhat better than plastic but the centre bit looks like plastic which could still be quite strong.

A max load figure for each wheel would be most interesting

All that aside they are a very ingenious drive system for a very manoeuvrable robot vehicle.

Thanks for that @Michael79594,

I’ll reach out to the manufacturer with the information.

Bob is right, though, if you have any additional information on your setup, please let me know as it will get a much more accurate response from GoBilda.
