Product Information

Full details

This 12-inch heavy-duty wheel set is designed for boat owners and marine enthusiasts who use dinghy launch trolleys in challenging environments. The primary benefit is the maintenance-free, puncture-proof construction that eliminates the risk of flats while navigating slipways or rugged terrain. While these wheels offer exceptional durability and load-bearing capacity, their solid rubber composition makes them heavier than standard pneumatic options, which may affect the overall weight of your launch trolley.

FAQs

Do these wheels require inflation?

No, these are solid, puncture-proof tyres and do not contain inner tubes or require air.

Can these be used on saltwater?

Yes, they are designed for marine use, but it is recommended to wash them with fresh water to prevent salt buildup.

Are these wheels suitable for soft, deep sand?

They perform best on hard-packed surfaces like slipways and concrete; they may sink into deep, soft sand due to the solid weight.

What is the rim size?

These wheels are fitted to 8-inch diameter rims.

How many wheels are included?

The set includes two complete 12-inch wheels.

Troubleshooting

Wheel is wobbling during transport

Check the axle retaining pin or nut to ensure the wheel is fully seated and tightened against the hub spacer.

Difficulty rolling on soft sand

These wheels are designed for hard surfaces; if used on soft sand, consider using boards or tracks to create a firm path for the wheels.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates flat tyres entirely
  • No air pressure maintenance required
  • High durability for heavy-duty marine use
  • Reliable, long-term performance

Cons

  • Heavier than traditional pneumatic tyres
  • Less shock absorption on very uneven ground
  • Limited to specific 8-inch rim mounting configurations

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure your existing launch trolley axle matches the hub dimensions of the 8-inch rims. To install, remove the old wheels and slide the new units onto the axle, securing them with the appropriate split pins or retaining clips. While these tyres are maintenance-free, it is recommended to periodically rinse them with fresh water after use in saltwater environments to prevent any potential corrosion on the rim hardware. Store your trolley in a dry location during the off-season to preserve the longevity of the mounting components.
