Application and Characteristics of Cabinet Pulleys & Rubber Casters in the Medical Industry (Product-Specific)
Cabinet pulleys and rubber casters are key moving components for medical equipment and furniture. Their core requirements include silence, antibacterial properties, disinfection resistance, stable load-bearing, and easy cleaning. They are widely used in various medical cabinets, trolleys, hospital beds, and precision equipment. Details by product type are as follows.
1. Pulleys / Casters for Medical Cabinets
1.1 Pulleys for Medical Instrument Cabinets / Medicine Cabinets
