Background to the product revision
In response to further developments and increased customer requirements, we decided back in 2016 to launch a revised and reinforced version of the RB 250 wheel block.

This new version was offered alongside the previous standard RB 250 in order to meet the different needs of our customers.

End of dual approach for the RB 250 wheel block
After careful consideration, the time has now come to discontinue the parallel marketing of both versions of the RB 250 wheel block. This is a further step towards an optimized and sustainable product strategy.

Service and spare parts for existing customers
Customers who have been using the standard version of the RB 250 to date have no cause for concern. They will continue to be reliably supplied with spare parts such as wheels, wheel units, bearings, sealing discs, and drive shafts. This ensures that the existing devices remain operational.

Complete wheel blocks and housing supply
Complete wheel blocks can also continue to be supplied – with the exact connection dimensions of the previous RB 250 standard and the corresponding cone bore. In these cases, only a larger spherical roller bearing is used.

Only the housing of the standard version will no longer be available in the future.
However, we will continue to be available to our customers as usual for all other components and services.
