Default Are these carrier wheels ?

I spotted a trolley with some wheels which look to me as they are carrier wheels.
Am I correct ?

Sorry I havenīt got any other pictures or data.

Hi, Hard to say, I suspect not, THEY LOOK TO SMALL, should be 20" or 19", look for casting marks 'ctL', 'tL' wartime dates and other marks.

Google carrier images and compare. hope this helps.

Kevin.

I would tend to agree with Kevin but without close ups its hard to tell...... mind they often turn up on trolleys like this one.

Default carrier wheels

Danny, I think they are SKF made wheels , plenty of those were sold in the Netherlands in the 70ies.

Hi Maurice,
I know SKF makes wheel bearings.
So they aren't carrier wheels ?

Cheers,

Danny
