Manufacturer of wheels and technical moulded parts in polyurethane

Vulkoprin is designing and producing a full range of polyurethanes to be able to withstand extreme loads and temperatures, high speeds, wear and deformation.



Materials

Vulkollan® is the benchmark polyurethane elastomer in the market, combining excellent mechanical properties for highest dynamical load bearing capacity and abrasion resistance. No other type of polyurethane offers an optimal mix of properties over a wide temperature range. Reliable performance and maximum service life are the main distinguishing factors of Vulkoprin Vulkollan® wheels. This is why you will find Vulkollan® in the most demanding applications.

With the Printhane™ polyurethanes, Vulkoprin has succeeded in accentuating certain properties for specific applications, such as Printhane™ -X that was developed specifically for fast roller coasters, or Printhane™ GRIP to give more grip in drive applications.

Printhopan® is a thermoplastic polyurethane. The elasticity of the Printhopan® TPU ensures that the guiding roller is silent, very durable and resistant to oil and grease.

Easyroll™ is a super elastic rubber in 65 Shore A.
