Camper & Motor Home Casters
Camper & Motor Home Casters
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 wheels are going to be moved by mechanically powered equipment, consult us for a reduced capacity rating based on your application.
Camper & Motor Home Casters Features:
- Attach to rear to protect your equipment.
- Designed to roll even on curves, but very slowly.
- To preserve caster life, creep slowly until wheel contacts the ground.
- We recommend only rigid casters for this application because swivels are likely to break if not facing the direction of travel.
- On curves, when making a turn, there can be a scrapping action that will negatively affect the tire.
- Over time, tires wear out. Replacing just the wheel is less expensive than replacing a complete caster.
- Rubber tires have more resilience than polyurethane but can leave black marks on the concrete.
- Polyurethane tires are non-marking but have less resilience than rubber tires.
