Experienced fishermen know that swimming agents for successful fishing play an important role, which is why each dock this occupation has its own boat. To simplify movement, transportation of such a float must be equipped with its transit wheels, the range of which is quite diverse. Let's find out how to independently make such wheels so that it was and practical and not very expensive.
Transit wheels
So, the boat that is loaded by various fishing accessories will be very hard to transport if there are no wheels on it, that's why it is worth thinking about choosing such an element in the boat. If there is a desire to save and at the same time, the hands grow from where you need, then you can make such a detail for the boat and do it yourself.
Transtese wheels are this kind of chassis for transporting a boat from PVC, they are attached to the brackets (it will be needed in this case a couple of pieces), and it is thanks to these details that the wheels can be brought to the working state.
The considered functional attribute makes it possible to simply and without any problems to move the boat along the shore of the reservoir and descend it into water. The main advantage of the transit wheels is that it is not necessary to remove them, just going down on the water, they are raised up - on this the necessary transformations of the boat are finished.
The running functions of the boat and the motor ability to rotate directly from the placement of the brackets on the transom, which is why this criterion should pay special attention when mounting the wheels.
Functions of transit wheel
The main tasks of the wheels under consideration on the boat are:
- simplifying the entire process of transportation of the boat
- unbagging
It is also worth considering that precisely thanks to the transit wheel fishing alone on the boat becomes real, and help from the side will not need. In this case, the most important thing is to fix the attachments of the transom to fix the boat operation to be simple.
Advantages and disadvantages
The main advantageous characteristics of the transit wheels on PVC boat are:
- operate convenient
- high technical quality
- products are functional
- compact dimensions of wheels
- saving time on transportation
- design simple
- long service life
The main minus of such a design is its value, which is why it is necessary to try to make these wheels yourself.
Materials and tools
Before entering into the manufacture of the elements under consideration, it is necessary to determine the list of tools and materials that will be needed in this case, as well as to take into account the size of the boat, because it will be necessary to make wheels such in size so that they do not interfere with the boat.
Materials and tools that will be needed:
- 2 wheels. In this case, the wheel diameter can reach 35 cm, while their width should be included in the range from 65 to 85 cm.
- Stainless profile (shape - square). The cross section of such a profile must be 25 × 25.
- Elements for fasteners that may be needed - bolts of spop, nuts, etc.
- Tools - wrench wrench, electric drill, pliers, metal hacksaw.
Manufacturing instructions
First we determine the place where the installation will be made. The choice should be made respectful, given the fact that the wheels should not interfere with the work of a boat motor, after that, all on points:
- From the selected place, you must measure the distance down, considering the fact that the location of the wheels should be lower than the edge of the transom (this distance should be equal to the radius length + 5 cm).
- Select the bracket can be both corner and straight. The most practical and reliable option is straight. Therefore, most often, it is him and choose. This bracket is solid, and therefore he can withstand heavy loads.
- The corner bracket is usually attached if the boat is without a motor, and the location of the wheels will be on the bottom.
- So, we scream 4 pieces from the profile (the length is selected based on the size of the boat). A tube is welded to the bottom of the profile (to put the rings). For fixing the rings, we drill the hole in the tubes. Fixing the rings is made using a pin.
- A nut is welded to the tube ring (the diameter is selected according to the size of the design itself). The external end is advisable to provide a rubber plug (as a last resort - plastic) so that the water does not fall inside.
- The drill must be taken a pair of holes at the top, through them and the chassis will be mounted.
- With the help of welding, you must connect 2 ready-made parts. The angle between parts should be within 30-45 degrees.
- When all works are made, with the help of the washers, the chassis is fixed on the pipes.
The finished product is optionally you can paint to extend the service life.
