The manufacturers state that the Shimpo Aspire should be ordered CCW or CW accordingly. Would this be the case please ? I am interested in buying this product but am confused with this particular issue.

This wheel is supplied with a switch that you can change the direction from clockwise to counter clockwise.

Hi
Could you tell me the diameter of the wheel head? Is it aluminium?
Many thanks.

Hi,
It's 250mm. The wheelhead itself is aluminium but is supplied with plastic batts to make it easier to use.
Hope this helps

Does it have bat pins ? so the option to use a batt system is possible?
Thanks

Yes the aspire wheels have pins as standard however the bat is only 10 inch diameter where most bat systems are 12 inches so will be to wide for this particular wheel.

As the bat on this wheel is 2 inches smaller than most, would this effect the diameter of the item being thrown? For example could you throw a larger platter? I'm quite new to pottery and can't decide between this wheel and the RK 55.

Hi, due to the construction of this wheel it is not suitable for throwing large platters. In this case the RK-55 would be a better choice for that type of work. Hope this helps!

Is it possible to use the wheel without the splash tray?

Hi, you can yes, you'd just need to be mindful about any excess water entering the bearing etc. Hope this helps!
