Casters & Wheels

A generous selection of caster and wheel options allows platform trucks, dollies, and shelf carts to be customized to fit hundreds of applications, surfaces, and conditions. Caster and wheel choices allow you to control noise, protect floors, minimize impact and abrasion damage, or handle higher load capacities.
     
Caster Types
  Phenolic
Economical, high capacity wheel rolls easily and is resistant to chemicals and oils
  Polyurethane
A heavy-duty wheel with polyurethane cushion tread bonded to a cast iron core. Resists most chemicals and oils.
               
  Moldon Rubber
A quiet, shock-absorbing wheel with rubber cushion tread bonded to a cast iron core.
  Non-Marking
Soft rubber cushion tread on polished aluminum hub provides maximum floor protection and shock resistance.
               
  Hi-Tech Performa Wheels
Hi-Tech Performa wheels in flat or round tread designs, resist damage from weather, water, steam or metal shavings. Thermoplastic elastomer treads are load-rated up to 500 lbs. per wheel.
  Steel
Extremely durable, high-capacity cast iron wheel rolls easily under heavy loads and is highly resistant to abrasion.
             
                
    Polyolefin
A heavy-duty, lightweight, non-marking plastic wheel that resists most chemicals and oils, and has excellent impact resistance.
    Semi-Pneumatic
Co-polymer polypropylene wheel on a aluminum hub. Specifically designed for material handling equipment.
     
               
    Full Pneumatic
Air-filled for excellent shock protection, floor protection, and easy operation over rough surfaces.
    Pro-Tech Wheels
The Pro-Tech polyurethane wheel is a non-marking cushion ride design that can be ordered with non-metallic, delrin bearings that are unaffected by water, steam, oil, and most acids. Pro-Tech wheels are load-rated up to 750 lbs.
