The AndyMark 4in. HD Mecanum Wheel 1/2in. Hex, Right is a robust and versatile component designed for advanced robotic applications. This wheel is integral to creating a mecanum drive system, which allows for omnidirectional movement. The wheel's design features a unique roller orientation, essential for achieving the desired movement patterns in a mecanum drive setup. Specifically, the 'right' wheel is positioned at the front right and rear left of the robot when viewed from above, forming an 'X' pattern with the 'left' wheels.

Constructed with a molded black polycarbonate interior and a zinc-plated steel perimeter, the wheel is engineered to support substantial loads, with a capacity of 200 pounds per wheel. This makes it suitable for both drive and intake applications, where the angled rollers facilitate the simultaneous pulling and pushing of objects. The wheel's structure includes nine urethane rubber rollers, each with a nylon core, providing a balance of durability and performance.

The wheel is compatible with a 1/2 inch hex hub, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications. It is important to note that while the wheel can handle significant loads, it has a limited torque capacity, making it ideal for light-duty applications such as FTC robots or non-drive train FRC items. The wheel is sold individually and does not include hubs, sprockets, or bearings.
