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 sturdy support platform is
a durable and flexible urethane diaphragm which
is inflated using compressed air. This air inflates the diaphragm, passing
through the many small holes, which raises the platform of the floor, enabling the
load to float on a thin film of air.
The 425 mm single air skid
has a maximum capacity of 2,840kg.
These are available as a single unit or combined in a kit of 4 unit, giving a
combined capacity of 11,360 kg.
Flexible - designed to handle a wide range of weights and machinery/equipment
Simple - Low maintenance, easy to operate and very reliable
Omnidirectional - Move with ease in any direction and operates in normally confined spaces
Configurable - Can be placed in various configurations or fixed under existing equipment or products for safe and easy movement
Virtually friction free - move 450 kg with only 450 grams of force
