Model 30 features a large swivel and wheel
bearing which allows for heavy loads and more arduous service. Model 30 has a
precision machined swivel bearing, which provides superior performance on both
manually moved and mechanically powered equipment. Benefits include easier
swiveling, reduced swivel vibration, and longer trouble free performance.
All wheels shown in Model 30 can be furnished in
Caster Model 50 if your
application requires a more rugged caster bracket.
If you have any doubt as to which wheel or caster is the
best choice for your application contact us for a recommendation.
Mounting Plate - 4 1/2" x
6 1/4"
We suggest that you do NOT drill the mounting holes to
attach the casters until you receive them.
We do NOT include mounting
Hardware.
Features:
Swivel Construction - precision machined
combination load and thrust bearing with heat treated raceway. No center
pin.
You should never select on the basis of
load capacity alone. Capacity ratings do not take into account the effort
required to manually move a load. Capacity ratings are based on manual
operation under ideal conditions. If these casters are going to be moved by
mechanically powered equipment, consult us for a reduced capacity rating based
on your application. If a human being has to move the weight, select the
largest practical wheel diameter.
If
a caster failure occurs it is almost always because of misuse or abuse. It has
been very rare that a product failed because of faulty material or poor
workmanship. The following are examples of things that we do
NOT want you to do:
1. Dragging the
wheel sideways.
2. Shock or Impact
caused by dropping the load instead of setting it down on the castered
equipment.
3. Improper
Installation such as:
A. Rigid casters not installed
parallel to one another.
B. Swivel casters not
installed parallel to the floor.
C. Using less than 4 bolts to
attach the mounting plate.
D. Distortion of the swivel
bearing when attaching the mounting plate due to welding
improperly.
4. Exceeding the
rated capacity of the wheel or caster.
5. Exceeding a
rolling speed of 3 MPH.
6. The build up of
heat caused by continuous operation causing tire separation.
