Wooden Tractor Wheel, 43 mm Diameter, with Rubber Tread for Model Making and Craft Projects
The wooden tractor wheel with rubber tread has a diameter of 43 mm and is intended for model making, craft projects and country-style decor. The wheel is made of wood, and the rubber tread on the running surface gives the typical tractor look and more grip on smooth surfaces.
With a width of 20 mm and an 8 mm bore, the wheel fits axles made from 8 mm dowel. This way you can build your own tractors, trailers or toy vehicles from wood.
Fitting and choosing the size
Slide the wheel onto an axle with a diameter of 8 mm. For it to turn, it must not be glued in place: the axle needs a little play, and a stopper such as a washer, a split pin or a bead glued to the end of the axle keeps the wheel in place. Sand the axle lightly so that the wheel slides well. A tractor usually has smaller front wheels and larger rear wheels. The same range is also available in 60 mm and 80 mm diameters to match.
