Cast iron wheels are exceptionally long wearing. They have tremendous resistance to shock and are a good choice for high capacity loads in warehousing and manufacturing. Recommended for rough concrete, wood block, and littered floors.
Phenolic
Phenolic wheels provide excellent service even in wet and cold applications. They resist degradation, deterioration, and corrosion from oil, grease, and commonly used acids and solvents. Recommended for all types of floors except resilient tiles.
Solid urethane
Solid urethane wheels are designed primarily for applications involving high moisture. Injection-molded urethane, the urethane solid wheel provides extended service in moisture applications that normally destroy conventionally bonded wheels.
Urethane on plastic
Mechanical bonding eliminates bond separation due to wet conditions. 95 Durometer Shore A tread material provides excellent rollability with a non-marking compound. Provides a smooth ride over rough surfaces. Excellent for wet applications and caustic surfaces.
The patented Kingpinless™ raceway eliminates the number one cause of caster failure
The offset precision-machined raceway exerts radial force evenly where there is full contact between the ball bearing and the raceway. A unique design adds more mass at key points. This extra mass, plus more thorough heat treatment, provides additional strength and combats brinelling into the core material.
This means longer, better service life in demanding industrial applications
The inline positioning of many competitive raceways (as opposed to the offset positioning our casters use) creates a direct hammering effect via the ball bearings, which are centered on the tangent of the two raceways, stressing, and eventually eroding the raceway. The inevitable result is a loose fit and progressive swivel failure. Even double raceways are subject to these hammering forces.
No direct "hammering" forces on the intersections of the raceways for vastly reduced raceway wear
Elimination of the "pull apart" forces of stress in the swivel section - a huge issue in towing applications
Smoother swiveling action and better maneuverability
Longer service life - maintenance is easier and less frequent
Extra impact resistance and high radial force absorption
