65mm High-Grip Robot Wheel – Professional Rubber Tire with Reinforced Rim for BO Motors, STEM Robotics, and DIY Smart Car Chassis

Product Description

The 65mm Robot Wheel is the standard for mobile robotics, specifically designed to interface perfectly with "Battery Operated" (BO) gear motors. This wheel features a high-quality soft rubber tyre that provides excellent friction, ensuring your robot doesn't slip on smooth surfaces like tiles or wood. At Robogears, we recommend this specific 65mm size for its ideal balance between speed and torque—large enough to provide good ground clearance for small obstacles, yet small enough to maintain high pushing power. Whether you're building a line follower, a remote-controlled car, or an autonomous explorer, these wheels provide the reliability your project demands.

Detailed Key Features

• High-Friction Rubber Tread: The outer tyre is made of a soft rubber compound with an anti-slip pattern, providing maximum traction for precise turns and rapid acceleration.

• Reinforced ABS Rim: The inner hub is constructed from durable, high-impact ABS plastic, designed to withstand the stresses of robotics competitions and rough handling.

• Precision D-Shaft Fit: Features a specialised centre bore that matches the "Double D" output shaft of standard plastic gear motors, ensuring a secure, non-slip mechanical connection.

• Shock Absorption: The flexible rubber tyre helps dampen vibrations, protecting your sensors and microcontrollers from the micro-shocks of uneven terrain.

• Vibrant Aesthetics: The bright red rim adds a professional, high-visibility look to your robotic chassis, making it stand out in demos and competitions.

All Technical Details

• Weight: Lightweight design (~38g) to minimise the rotational load on small hobby motors.

• Bore Dimensions: Specifically sized for 3.5mm x 5.4mm "D" shaped plastic shafts.

• Durability: The rubber tyre is removable for cleaning or replacement, but fits tightly to prevent slipping off the rim during high-speed rotation.

• Terrain Versatility: Suitable for indoor use (tiles, carpet, laminate) and light outdoor use (paved surfaces).
