4″ Polyurethane on Aluminum – Plate Swivel Caster 3

Description

Plate Caster Model 3 is made using a stamped steel construction and is bright zinc plated for corrosion resistance.  The mounting plate is 2 3/8” x 3 5/8” and the hole pattern is slotted to: 1 3/4” x 2 7/8” – 3” and is designed to use a mounting bolt size of 5/16”.  This plate caster uses a ⅜” diameter axle and the swivel caster is held together by a 1⁄2” diameter rivet.  This institutional plate caster is constructed with two ball bearings on hardened raceways to ensure life of the caster.  There is a metal dust cap protecting the swivel raceways to shield them from dirt and dust.  Features wheels with 1-¼” and 1-1⁄2” tread widths.  This Zinc Plated caster is NSF listed.

Caster City manufactures this plate caster in Stainless Steel Caster Model 3.  This caster comes standard with two high temperature white seals in the swivel bearing that has a temperature range of -20F to 450F.  Also come with a grease fitting on the dust cover and axle, and buffed to a smooth reflective surface.

Caster City also manufactures this plate caster in Economy Stainless Steel Plate Caster Model K3.  Constructed with S304 stainless steel and comes with no dust cap or grease fitting on the swivel making it economically efficient for most applications..

The blue (“PA”) polyurethane on aluminum wheel was designed to support some of the highest loads we can offer with a 1-¼” wide industrial caster wheel.  This liquid cast blue polyurethane on aluminum wheel is offered in 1-¼” tread width only and is made in diameters 3”, 3.5”, 4”, and 5”.  The (“PA”) blue polyurethane light duty industrial caster wheel is made from a high quality liquid caster polyurethane and the aluminum center of the wheel will not rust, NSF rated.

Given the same size load on a smooth floor, a polyurethane caster wheel rolls easier than the same size conventional rubber caster wheel.  Polyurethane wheels are chosen when higher loads are needed to roll on floors due to offering more floor protection than what a hard composition caster wheel can.

The Blue Polyurethane on Aluminum caster wheel is a liquid cast polyurethane tire that is chemically bonded to its aluminum center. The caster wheel has two annular ball bearings for higher capacity and increased rollability. They are used in almost every type of application, but are especially popular in Research Laboratories, Hospitals, Food Service, Schools, Bakeries and other Institutional applications. This caster wheel is a non-marking polyurethane which rolls more easily than soft rubbers on smooth floors. This caster can be used in industrial applications which do not involve shock, overloading, abuse, obstructions, poor floors or storage ( standing ) loads.

The rated capacity of the 4” wheel is 3000lbs under ideal conditions. If the wheel is left parked for a prolonged period, do not exceed 70% of the rated capacity of the wheel to avoid a flat spot from developing. The Durometer is Shore A 95. Caster wheel comes with a dust cover over the bearing.
