  Airgonomics Air Bearings use a continuously flowing film of air between a flexible diaphragm and floor surface to allow virtually friction free movement.

Thus large loads can be moved on air bearings with consideralbly less force than on conventional wheels or rollers.

The flow of air passes through communicating holes in the diaphragm to the space below.

A continuous airfilm is formed between the diaphragm and floor surafce as the air escapes to atmosphere.

Supported on a film of air loads are easily moved requiring only one pound force per 1000 pounds of load (on a level surface)
