Crane wheels
Crane wheels are a key component of the running gear of lifting equipment, ensuring its movement along rail tracks. They are used in overhead bridge cranes, gantry cranes, as well as crane trolleys operating on rails of types R24, R43, R50, R65, KR70, KR80, KR100, or square-section guides.
Our company manufactures double-flanged wheels from steel grades 45 and 65G. The presence of two flanges provides increased stability and safety of movement along the rail tracks, preventing lateral displacement of the wheels. Upon customer request, wheels can be supplied with heat treatment (through hardening and tempering) or without it, in as-rolled condition.
When supplying a crane assembly: assembled axle box, product certificate.
The “Gruzopodem” company is a modern factory in Kazan with an area of 17,000 m², where more than 1,000 overhead, cantilever, and gantry cranes, as well as other equipment, are manufactured annually. The factory is equipped with its own certified laboratories for destructive and non‑destructive testing, which, among other things, guarantees the high quality of products at every production stage: from incoming material inspection to the release of the finished product. We strictly comply with industry standards and have a Certificate of Welding Technology Certification issued by the National Welding Control Agency. Based on the results of an independent study, our company was included in the TOP‑5 largest crane manufacturers in Russia and was recognized as the best exporter in the Republic of Tatarstan in the industrial sector. In 2025 and 2026, the overhead cranes produced by our company became laureates of the republican competition “Best Goods and Services of the Republic of Tatarstan” in the “Products for Industrial and Technical Use” category, and also received diplomas at the federal stage of the “100 Best Products of Russia” program.*

Other types of equipment
We provide a full cycle of work
Crane wheels are produced in the following sizes:
For rail operation, with running surface diameters of 240 mm, 310 mm, 400 mm, 500 mm, 600 mm.
For suspension cranes that use the flange of an I-beam as the running surface, wheels with reduced diameters optimized for their design are manufactured: 130 mm and 150 mm.

The full cycle of wheel metal structure production is carried out at our plant. Operations are performed on modern CNC turning and milling machines, which ensures precise geometry and accurate dimensions. This approach provides:
Reliable operation under heavy loads and harsh conditions.
Long service life under intensive use.
Production according to individual customer requirements.
Compatibility with cranes in PBI and VBI designs.
Gruzopodyom Plant manufactures both idle and driving crane wheels in accordance with TR CU 010/2011 “On the safety of machinery and equipment” and guarantees their quality and reliability. We can supply both separate wheels and complete wheel assemblies (driving and idle axle boxes).
Fig. 1. Crane wheel
Fig. 2. Drive wheel assembled with flanged axle boxes
The axle box consists of a wheel, a shaft (driving or idle), bushings, and covers, according to the diagram below.
Crane wheels are a component of the travel mechanism that is subject to wear and requires periodic replacement, even with careful crane operation.
When a crane wheel should be replaced:
If the flanges are worn by 50% of their original thickness.
If the tread surface is worn by more than 15–20% of the rim thickness.
If there are cavities that cannot be repaired, or through cracks.
Our specialists will help select the optimal option for specific operating conditions.
The color of the wheels may differ from those shown on the website.
