5″ Phenolic Wheel – Stainless Steel Stem K3

Description

5″ Phenolic Wheel. This economy stainless steel K3 stem caster is formed from 304 stainless stamped steel, and lacks a grease fitting in the swivel bearing. The center pin of this stainless steel stem caster K3 is a ½” diameter steel rivet that holds the raceways together and the diameter of the axle is ⅜”. Economy Stainless Steel Stem Caster Model K3 caster brackets have two rows of ball bearings rotating on raceways for smoother swiveling. This caster is excellent for washdown situations due to having no swivel bearing cover or a grease fitting, which helps facilitate water draining through the swivel bearing and raceways.
