Two stainless steel ball bearings sit within the back plate and spin around the bolt as the wheel turns, rather than sliding against it and creating friction noise. The textured running surface gives pets grip, while the stand has some give to help protect joints from the impact of running on a hard, fixed surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnclosed design includes a front plate for privacy, safety and containment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBean-shaped openings provide access, with a solid black rear wall.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from plastic.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat comes with the wheel, and how do I clean it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe package includes the Silent Runner wheel, its stand and a cage attachment; accessories are sold separately. The wheel completely disassembles for deep cleaning, and its design has no nooks where feces can hide.
