Floor Locks
Floor locks prevent portable equipment from shifting or creeping when in locked position. Engaging the floor lock is accomplished by depressing the foot pedal. Depressing the kick bar releases/retracts the floor lock. For best results, under most conditions, floor locks should be installed in pairs between swivel and rigid casters.
NOTE: Floor Locks are not manufactured to lift equipment.
Swivel Locks
Plunger-type swivel locks are used when you want to convert a swivel caster into a rigid one for added steering control.
- Passive Swivel Locks, Heavy Duty Threaded Swivel Locks, Foot Operated Swivel Locks, Foot Guards, and Thread Guards also available. Call us for availability of these options on selected caster models.
- Swivel Locks are priced on application; call us to add swivel locks to your casters.
Wheel Brakes
Field installable wheel brakes are economical and easily installed on side of the wheel. Use w/4" to 8" diameter wheels (1-1/2 and 2" wide). Fits on standard caster series: 40, 43, 45, 65, and 75.
- Contact us about fitting your casters with wheel brakes.
- Also available for General Duty Casters.
