Super Caster with Self-Energizing Rubber Wheels

SELF-ENERGIZING rubber wheels require the lowest draw bar effort ever devised in any resilient tread wheel. The prestressed rubber tire resists flattening under load, reduces "scrubbing" action when turning, and actually helps to roll the load. A minimum starting effort, and an extremely small draw bar pull to maintain motion (60% less than conventional rubber), allows one man to move loads (up to 3000 lbs.) that before required several men. Vertical bonding (with approximately seven times the area of conventional wheels) eliminates bond failure as a cause for wheel replacement. The steel side discs dissipate heat so that the tire remains cool after hours of uninterrupted operation. Sealed tapered roller bearings are pre-adjusted in the wheel to assure they always maintain proper adjustment.

The SELF-ENERGIZING Wheel can be the least expensive rubber wheel because your people do more with less energy expenditure ... because it prevents injuries due to excessive strain ... protects floors because shock and impact of hard tread wheels are replaced with resiliency ... saves you money by increasing efficiency and production, reducing overhead costs and prolonging equipment life.

The SELF-ENERGIZING Wheel performs at maximum efficiency when mounted in a Super Swivel Assembly. The caster swivels friction free on two sealed tapered roller bearings. High tensile corrosion resistant aluminum alloy forks have the correct offset for perfect swiveling with rubber tired wheels. Vibration and shimmy are minimized.

The SUPER CASTER with the SELF-ENERGIZING rubber wheel is the ultimate caster instrument - providing ease of start - minimum rolling resistance - lowest cost per mile or hour of operation. There is nothing else comparable in caster performance and long life.

Why invest in the SUPER CASTER? Because, day in, day out, week by week, and year by year the savings in operation pile up - maximum loads at minimum effort - no maintenance - no replacement for years. Try a set. You will be amazed at the immediately noticeable difference.

Wheel illustrated is the SELF-ENERGIZING design. Also available in the SUPER CASTER are PREMIUM rubber and SUPER CUSHION rubber wheels.

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 in this catalog 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.

These are the maximum operating load ratings of SELF-ENERGIZING wheels. However, this wheel was created to provide optimum rolling characteristics, and the total load on four wheels as shown in the table below is recommended to secure these results

10 x 3 3000 lbs. 20 lbs.
