Casters

Casters are wheeled attachments installed at the base of equipment and furniture to enable easy movement and maneuverability. They are available in various types, including swivel casters for multidirectional mobility and rigid casters for straight-line motion, with wheel diameters ranging from 2 inches to over 12 inches. Constructed from materials like rubber, polyurethane, nylon, and steel, casters can support load capacities from under 100 pounds to over 10,000 pounds per caster, making them suitable for everything from office chairs to heavy industrial machinery. Key features include load ratings, wheel hardness, mounting options such as plate or stem mounts, and specialized functions like braking mechanisms or shock absorption, catering to diverse needs in industries like manufacturing, warehousing, medical equipment, and transportation.
