The 1100x20 wheel for the M809, M939 truck series was redesigned for structural composites. Finite element analysis of the design was accomplished using material properties developed during this program. Tooling was designed and manufactured for both the wheel and the lock ring as two independent molds. Composite wheels and lock rings were manufactured using compression molding techniques. Laboratory testing was conducted using SAE J267 A procedures and the Indoor Endurance Test of Specification MIL-T-12459D. The composite wheels performed well under the fatigue environment but did not pass the Indoor Endurance Test.
