When you put your mouse over the words in the wheel description column you see a picture of the wheel. Click on the part number in the Swivel and Rigid columns to see the complete caster.
- Deduct 1/4 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.
A zinc plated quick change plate gets bolted to your equipment and enables the casters to be easily and quickly installed or replaced (changed) without using tools.
Please note: THIS DOES NOT FIT OUR MODEL 3A TOTAL LOCKING CASTER !!!!!! Do NOT use with RIGID Casters.
