Stroodies 12" Smoothly-TEXTURED Magnetic Hanging Hamster Wheel (v10.2)
Stroodies presents the world's greatest line of 12" Smoothly-TEXTURED hanging Hamster Wheels!
๐งฒ๐น๐ก๐ฅฐ
-->These Magnetic Hamster Wheels clamp onto your lil buddy's enclosure with magnets (or a bolt-clamp) so it DOESN'T take up floor space and inquisitive rodents won't move it around. Other lil buddies ๐ฆ๐ฆ may also be interested in Hamster Wheels! My own geckos have Wheels these days and they use 'em!
The SMOOTHLY-TEXTURED running surface is plenty grippy but not rough. The texture is perfect for hamsters and geckos; but hedgehogs might prefer our SMOOTH wheels instead.
The NEWEST ๐ฉ Bolt-Clamped ๐ฉ versions are for Wire Mesh Enclosures. Instead of magnets, the Bolt-Clamp version passes a stainless steel bolt through the cage-mesh and clamps VERY securely with no tools required. The BoltClamp also works with other types of enclosures, such as wood or PVC, but you will need to stick the bolt through a hole in the wall somehow.
Warning: โThese HEAVY-DUTY MAGNETS can Pinch yo' fingers! โ
โก๏ธYes, you.โฌ ๏ธ Please read the full magnet warning below.
These Magnetic Hamster Wheels come with the highest-strength magnet assemblies I've ever sold.
The 2lb-versions come with twice as many magnets as the 300g-versions.
The 300g-versions come with twice as many magnets as the 175g-versions.
โก๏ธYou may be unable to separate the magnetsโฌ ๏ธ if they are allowed to come together with nothing between them, especially the 2lb-version. Keep a solid object, such as cardboard, between the magnets whenever the Wheel is not in use.
These magnets ๐งฒ are NOT for aquariums ๐ซ๐. Please use them in terrariums/vivariums/hamster cages only.
Diameter & Weight Specifications:
๐ฉ BoltClamp - Requires Wire-Mesh Enclosure intended for hefty Hamsters or whatever you've got up to 5lbs.
๐งฒ 2lb Magnetic - intended for hefty Hamsters (or similar lil buddies) up to 2lb.
๐งฒ300g Magnetic - intended for hamsters up to 300g (or lizards)
This wheel has a 3.55" running width; so, like, the wheel is a 3.55"-wide sidewalk.
Ships fully assembled and ready to hang out!
๐งฒ๐งฒAll Magnetic versions include two pieces:
[1] a Wheel ( fully-assembled with embedded Bearing, Magnet, and hardware) and [2] a MagBack (which goes on the outside of the enclosure-wall).
Your magBack will be magnetically stuck to the Wheel's central magNut.
***Magnetic Installation:*** CAREFULLY pull/twist the MagBack off of the Wheel's backside (this leaves embedded magnet(s) within the Wheel-hub). Hold the Wheel where you want on the enclosure's wall and then CAREFULLY stick the MagBack on the outside of the enclosure-wall to secure the Wheel. That's all!
๐ฉ๐ฉAll Bolt-Clamped versions include two pieces:
[1] a Wheel ( fully-assembled with embedded Bearing, Bolt, and front-Clamp) and [2] a Back-Clamp which goes on the outside of the enclosure-wall.
Your Back-Clamp will be threaded onto your Wheel's central Bolt when your order arrives.
***Bolt-Clamp Installation:*** Unscrew the Back-Clamp to remove it from the Wheel (this leaves one Front-Clamp still attached to the Wheel's bolt and leaves the Bolt protruding from the back of the Wheel). Hold the Wheel where you want on the enclosure's wall and then pass the bolt through the Cage-Mesh. Tighten the Back-Clamp onto the bolt while holding the Front-Clamp still. Turning the Clamps by hand provides plenty of torque, no wrenches required!
Sliding problem with magnetsโ Can be solved with a piece of scotch tape!
Sometimes the magnets don't have enough friction if the Magnets & your glass are both new or very clean. This can result in a wheel that gently descends during use, which is undesirable.
If ^this happens to you, try placing a piece of scotch tape on the outside of the glass where you want the magBack to stop sliding. The scotch tape offers just a tiny little "ledge" or "stairstep" to stop the magnets from sliding any farther.
Please contact Stroodies if you need help! ๐
Yes ๐๐ Okay to submerge for washing! ๐๐
The included hardware (pre-assembled Skate Bearing, M8 bolt, & M8 Nut) is all stainless steel. The magnets are Nickel-coated and will not rust. Wash with warm water and pet-safe soap. Make sure the bearing at the center of the wheel gets a chance to dry after washing, it should not stay wet overnight.
โDo not put in dishwasher, do not use water that's too hot for your hands or your pets, do not leave it outside.โ
๐ซ๐The Magnetic versions are NOT for aquariums or use underwater but all versions are okay to submerge and wash. ๐ซ๐
I designed the first ๐งฒ๐น๐ Magnetic Hamster Wheel for a friend who loves hamsters. I then revised the design (like, 50 times ๐ ๐) based on input from the hamster community online and input from prototype testers, both hamster & human.
Got a better idea you'd like to have made? ๐ Lemme know!
Using our fleet of customized 3D printers, Stroodies makes this product out of PLA plastic, HEAVY-DUTY N52-Grade Neodymium Magnets, and stainless steel hardware. PLA plastic is made of fibers from plants like corn or sugarcane. N52 is the strongest grade of magnets in the known universe and the HEAVY-DUTY size is huuuge!
I can typically restock any Stroodies color within 24 hours of your request

KEEP MAGNETS AWAY FROM CHILDREN, PACEMAKERS, AND OTHER SENSITIVE ELECTRONICS. I'm serious.
Warning: โThese HEAVY-DUTY MAGNETS can Pinch yo' fingers! โ
Warning:โPlease ๐ DON'T LET THE MAGNETS COME ALL THE WAY TOGETHER ๐โ
The rare-earth metal Neodymium makes the strongest magnets, but it is also relatively fragile for a metal. The magnets included in your order are all encased in plastic which makes them much more durable than usual but a significant drop onto a hard surface could still break them. They also have enough magnetic strength to break against each other if one magnet is haphazardly placed near another and allowed to go clack. That being said, when I've dropped the encased magnets on my tile floor and they just laugh and bounce. ๐
๐งฒMagnets are very stable while in use.๐งฒ Every one of these Neodymium Magnets is electroplated with a triple coating of nickel, copper and nickel again to protect against corrosion. Typically, these metallic coatings would get scratched over time which eventually would result in rust. BUT, your magnets won't get scratched because they are encased in plastic! You can expect these Neodymium magnets to remain powerful and effective for a very long time.
๐ ๐These Ni-Cu-Ni plated magnets are great for Terrariums but this coating is NOT SAFE FOR AQUARIUMS. Ask Stroodies about products with different Aquarium-safe Magnets ๐ ๐
DO NOT USE BROKEN MAGNETS If the metal is broken, discard broken magnets immediately!
If a break occurs, please contact Stroodies immediately (after discarding broken magnets) for information about replacing broken Magnets. (We have received zero reports.)
Remove any broken magnet from use immediately and discard carefully.
Magnetic shards are sharp and, if ingested, very dangerous. Fortunately, they all stick together which makes cleanup relatively simple. Stroodies recommends against using any magnets in your terrariums that are not encased in plastic or sealed by some other means. Even tape would be better than nothing, just to contain potential shards if a break occurs. If the plastic around your new magnets becomes damaged please contact Stroodies about proactive repair/replacement options. Contact Stroodies if you observe rust/corrosion on or around the magnets as rust would indicate that the nickel plating has failed and the magnets could lose strength (this still has never happened).
๐ So, magnets are not toys but they are a heck of a lot of fun! ๐
