Airfloat Air Bearing Skids
(or “air castors”) are a versatile pneumatic/air support device. These allow
the safe, near frictionless movement of heavy loads and large equipment.
Underneath the strong load support
platform is a durable and flexible urethane diaphragm
that is inflated using compressed air. This air inflates the diaphragm, passing
through the many small holes, which enables the load to float on a thin film of
air.
The 900 mm single air skid
has a maximum capacity of 14,205 kg. These may be purchased individually or in
a set of 4 units giving a huge load capacity of 56,820 kg.
