Description

For those that keep or know about keeping hedgehogs and tenrecs, you will know that a standard hamster wheel radius is too small causing the animal to arch its back in an unnatural way. Wheels for hedgehogs and tenrecs are much larger to create a shallower incline for the animal to run on.

This wheel design allows for a lower profile and can fit into most enclosures while also creating an almost flat surface to run on.

Please be aware of the plastics you choose to print with! It should go without saying that the filament you choose should be safe for the hedgehog / tenrec.

I use 4 perimeters for all my prints since my prints tend to be working parts rather than cosmetic although this item does not need to be more than 2 perimeters in my opinion.

The wheel is designed to work with two (2) standard 608 skateboard bearings, preferably shielded bearings.

Over-all dimensions: Width: 345mm, Height: 270mm, Depth: 225mm

Inventory: Part / Qty hedgehog_wheel_1 / 8 hedgehog_wheel_2 / 1 hedgehog_wheel_3 / 1 hedgehog_wheel_4 / 1 hedgehog_wheel_5 / 2 hedgehog_wheel_6 / 1
