These casters are ideal for applications where the caster must be totally immobile when the caster brake is applied. Caster Model 4A has a unique brake which locks both the wheel and the swivel bearing at the same time. This "Total-Lock" brake insures that the swivel caster will not turn when the wheel is locked. This combination wheel brake and swivel lock is essential for safety in applications - such as on worktables, tablesaws, and medical equipment. The Total-Lock brake is desireable whenever a brake is needed because it makes a swivel caster totally immobile. The wheels featured with Caster Model 4A are non-marking, and all except Polyolefin and Phenolic can be used on hardwood floors. Polyolefin and Phenolic wheels are best at reducing the risk of a flat spot occuring when loads are left standing for prolonged periods. All the wheels have a precision sealed ball bearings for easier rolling. Gray Soft Rubber and Polyurethane wheels provide quiet operation, floor and cargo protection.

Features:
  • Swivel Construction - Stamped steel. Swivel has double ball bearing.
  • All wheels have precision sealed ball bearings ( PS ) .
Total-Lock Brake:
  • Combination Wheel Brake and Swivel Lock - This brake simultaneously locks the wheel and the swivel. One step on the activating pedal instantly locks the entire caster holding the equipment firmly in place. One step on the release pedal frees the swivel and wheel.

Deduct 1 lb. for weight of rigid caster.


Use the Polyolefin ( Industrial Plastic ) wheel for "Standing Loads". Polyolefin wheels eliminate the possiblilty of a flat spot developing if the castered equipment is left parked for a prolong period.

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. These casters are not to be moved by mechanically powered equipment.
