GripForce™ Mecanum Wheels enhance your robot's omnidirectional traction! Whether moving forward, backward, laterally, or diagonally on the foam mats of FTC game fields, your bot's acceleration and deceleration benefit from the innovative GripForce™ tread pattern that delivers exceptional grip as the soft tiles conform around it.
The following features contribute to the GripForce™ Mecanum Wheels' superior performance in FTC:
-
40A Durometer Silicone Rubber Rollers: The 40A silicone rollers strike the perfect balance, offering high grip without accumulating excessive debris or sacrificing durability.
-
GripForce™ Tread Pattern: The patent-pending tread pattern on each roller ensures strong mat engagement. This omnidirectional design provides excellent grip regardless of direction.
-
104mm Wheel Diameter: While 96mm has been our standard, the slightly larger 104mm wheel diameter reduces transit times across an FTC field when paired with the popular 19.2:1 ratio Yellow Jacket Planetary Gear Motors. The 11 rollers deliver an incredibly smooth ride while minimizing wheel width.
-
Ball Bearing Supported Rollers: Each roller is supported by a pair of ball bearings, enabling premium, low-friction rotation.
-
Shouldered Pins: All e-clips are positioned towards the interior of your robot, protecting them from external contact.
- Maximum Clearance: The steel side plates are designed to provide ample clearance in relation to the mat. The space between the foam mat and the steel side plates prevents contact, ensuring the rollers conform optimally to the mat.
The combination of these features brings unprecedented performance to the foam field of FTC!
