MAIN WHEELS & BRAKES

Powerful, proportional and reliable electric brakes and wheels

Main Wheels

SIMPLE AND LIGHT, DESIGNED FOR USE ON THE MOST DEMANDING ON RUNWAYS

The wheels are made from a 7075T6 aluminium rim and vulcanized rubber tyres. The tyres are empty inside and work with atmospheric pressure, so they are not inflated .

They are designed to make the tire change as fast and simple.

MOUNTED USING RADIAL BEARINGS

All wheels are mounted on radial 688zz bearings, achieving a smooth and precise roll, as well as having a shield that protects the balls from dirt and dust. The result is a system with very little maintenance required.

A SIZE FOR EVERY MODEL

Multiple diameter wheels are available, all designed to work with our Electron brakes.

Check out all the different sizes for more information.

EASY INSTALLATION

Installing the wheel/brake onto the leg is very easy. The brake incorporates blocks to prevent it from twisting, once the disk is installed inside the wheel simply insert the axel through the whole unit. 

A grub screw located in the leg keeps the whole system in place, plus an additional circlip being added as an additional safety element.

BRAKES

Electron-Retracts at the forefront of R&D

Electron’s philosophy is ” improvement is always possible” and 2017 was dedicated to improving the magnetic brakes, and their controller, this resulting is a more reliable system.

POWERFUL PROPORTIONAL ELECTRIC BRAKES

Thanks to the unique design of Electron Retract’s Brakes, they are able to provide unmatched power, totally proportional and controllable, with instant response and without any residual effects.

COMPATIBLE WITH ALL ELECTRON RETRACT CONTROLLERS

Control any Electron Retract brakes from any Electron Retracts controller, from the small brake specific E-Brake unit, all the way up to the GS200 Pro.

FAST ENOUGH FOR ABS

Thanks to the unique design of the Electron Retracts brakes, they are able to respond instantly to changes, both in applying and releasing braking, even allowing the use of computerised ABS braking as available in our RS200, GS200 and GS200Pro controllers.

LONG LASTING

Due to the high quality materials used to produce the Electron Retracts brakes, these are long lasting and can be operated for years without loosing power or any maintenance being required.

NO METAL TO METAL CONTACT

 Just like with our previous version, the friction produced between the brake disk and the electromagnet is never metal to metal.  There is a middle layer produced from a low ware material that separates the disk by about 0,03mm. This prevents any residual magnetism and assures that wheels roll freely once the brakes are deactivated.
