You know theres always the one you pick that has a shuudering, wobbling wheel. What is the explanation why this happens on a shopping cart? I ask because im about to purchase a used stroller with the same problem and would like to know why it happens so i can fix it. Danke!
Sorry to blow up all your engineering bs, but it was commonly used for exhaust in the early 20th century. And there are alot of custom cars with copper pipes now, but its alot easier to go with copper coated steel.
The big problem is the reaction between moisture in the air and the exhaust gases these cause a corrosive mix that will eventually eat through the copper unless that copper is protected by some non-corrosive coating. I agree that steel piping is better but even then if its plain steel make sure its painted in a zinc rich paint.
Who says it cannot be used as an exhaust pipe? There are factors that make it a much more expensive alternative construction material for that purpose, but copper is well capable of channeling the exhaust gases away from an engine at those elevated temperatures. -Copper is a LOT more expensive than steel. To make an exhaust system out of copper pipe would raise the msrp by atleast a factor of 4 when compared to a steel system of similar design. -Copper is less durable than steel pipe, meaning the system would not last as long as a steel system of similar design. Frankly, I really cannot find any benefits to using copper rather than steel.
Maybe it is just the luck of the draw but I always seem to get one with a wobbly wheel. lol
Bitte. One wheel wobbles because the frame is slightly bent. The weight of the cart or stroller is not equally distributed among the 4 wheels. The only sure way to avoid this is to find a 3-wheeled stroller. Three wheels are always coplanar.
