Industrial 4in-3/8in-aluminum-tachometer-wheel-o-ring Tachometer Wheel

Description:

The Aluminum Tachometer Wheel with Rubber O-Ring 4" Diameter and 3/8" Bore is used in linear speed measurement and web tracking systems for converting rotational encoder movement into surface speed or distance measurements. Commonly installed in printing presses, conveyors, packaging equipment, wire and cable machinery, textile equipment, and material handling systems requiring non-slip linear measurement. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this part for encoder repairs, tachometer wheel replacement, machine retrofits, and process measurement upgrades.

Applications:

The aluminum tachometer wheel with rubber O-ring is commonly used in industrial automation environments including conveyor systems, printing machinery, converting equipment, paper processing lines, wire and cable manufacturing equipment, and packaging systems where accurate surface speed measurement and reliable linear distance feedback are essential. The rubber O-ring provides improved traction on smooth materials while minimizing slippage during operation.
