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.

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
