Description
Plate Caster Model 9 Rigid Caster is the matching plate caster for the Model 9 Swivel Caster. When manually moving equipment supported by 4 swivel casters it can be difficult to control the direction you are pushing or pulling. Rigid casters assist in controlling equipment being moved in straight line travel. Equipment with rigid casters installed can not move sideways. Rigid Casters are usually installed at the opposite end of the push handle. Leg thickness is 1/4”. The axle diameter is 1/2” long and is designed to use wheels with a hub width of 2 7/16”. This caster is constructed from stamped steel.
Rigid Casters can carry more weight than swivel casters because they do not have an offset. Nevertheless, on our website both rigid casters and matching swivel casters are shown with the same capacity. Other mounting plate sizes and wheel bearing types are available on request.
The (“PCI”) crown tread polyurethane on iron industrial caster wheel is an excellent ergonomic choice for maneuvering cargo in tight spaces. This crown-tread caster wheel helps to initiate motion and change directions more easily due to the point contact nature of the caster wheel. The principal benefit of a polyurethane wheel over the same size rubber wheel is increased capacity. The bonding agent which holds the polyurethane tire to the iron center can be affected by exposure to some chemicals, impact, overloading, and the buildup of heat. It comes in 4”, 5” , 6” , and 8” diameters and is equipped with two large precision sealed ball bearings which are completed with top hat spanners for a ½” diameter axle.
This caster is available in Stainless Steel Model 9. It is constructed from 304 Stainless Steel. This is an excellent caster for wet or corrosive applications if your total weight exceeds 1000lbs.
