Road Wheels
Rubber-tyred wheels that carry the hull on the track and take the suspension load at each station. The bonded tyre absorbs the shock the torsion bar cannot, which is why its temperature, not its tread, sets its life. SES holds the range as an authorised JK Fenner distributor, covering types Road wheels, idlers, support rollers; disc Forged or cast steel, or aluminium per drawing; tyre Bonded rubber, load and heat graded; hub interface Bearing bore and bolt pattern per vehicle. Executions include single-disc road wheels, twin-disc road wheels, idler wheels, support and return rollers, among others. It is specified most often into main battle tank road wheel stations and infantry combat vehicle suspension stations. Every part is genuine JK Fenner through official channels, with designation, specification and options confirmed against your duty before it ships — supplied from Kolkata and our branch network, with breakdown cover that does not sit in an inbox.

Where it runs.
You will find Road Wheels in the parts of a plant where this particular duty actually occurs. In practice that means main battle tank road wheel stations, infantry combat vehicle suspension stations, idler and support roller positions, and equally armoured recovery vehicle running gear, base workshop re-tyring programmes, reactivation of long-stored vehicles. What links them is the duty rather than the machine name — load path: Hull weight through wheel into track. If your installation is not on that list it matters less than you would think: the operating condition decides the specification. Send us the load, the speed, the running temperature and the environment it runs in, and we will match it to the right execution in the JK Fenner range and confirm what is in stock.
Specify it against the duty.
Specification here follows the operating condition, not the catalogue. Station is at the front or rear, where deflections are largest — The matched compound drawn for those positions. End stations fitted with a general-service tyre fail well ahead of the middle of the set. Vehicle covers long distances at road speed — The low-heat-build compound. Temperature peaks in the rubber near the bond line, and a blow-out there strips the tyre in a single run. Disc is sound but the tyre is worn out — Re-tyre to the original drawing profile. An off-profile tyre alters running track tension and starts riding the guide horn. Where two of those apply at once, specify for the harsher of the two — under-specifying is what puts the part back on the bench a month later. Send us the duty and we will confirm the execution.
Ordering this from SES.
Keep the discs from wheels whose bond has failed cleanly. A straight disc can be re-tyred for a fraction of a new wheel, but only if the vehicle was not driven on after the tyre came off. Send the designation off the failed part and we will confirm the JK Fenner equivalent and stock position.
