    Heavy duty plastic. Moves the robot forward and backwards while allowing it to slip side to side.

    great cheap all around wheel

    These wheels are great to have around. They work, and they are cheap. I've never seen one break, but I have warped them in super high speed applications like on last years shooter.

    8" polycarbonate Omni-wheel

    I found this wheel to be accurate in form and structure. I offers improved reliability and confidence over the all-aluminum omni-wheel that was void of any bearing bosses.
