Question:

I saw a question/answer for this about how much weight could these hold. The answer from the manufacturer was they didnt have. An answer as they were meant for limited use. I have a heavy food trailer that drags going in and out of some Peking lots where we set up. So you have a weldable wheel thats similar that does have a weight/ abuse rating? I would like to be able to purchase three that are made as an assist for low dragging on an semi regular basis. Thanks

We have the Ultra-Fab Skid Wheels for Low-Profile RVs up to 30' Long - 4" Diameter - Qty 2 # UF48-979011 which are made for this very purpose. They are not weight rated as they are not made to support the weight but rather to deflect the impact to protect your trailer. They don't run skid wheels through any weight rating tests because they don't need to based on their purpose.

We also have steel wheel rollers like the Ultra-Fab Steel Jumbo Roller for Trailers and RVs - Weld On - 2-1/2" Wide x 3" Tall # UF48-979023. There is a 1 year warranty on these products.
