About Casters and Wheels
More
Side-Mount Bracket Casters
Mount these casters to the side of equipment or on gates and doors. They are spring-loaded for good shock absorption.
Tread-on-core wheels have a polypropylene core that is harder than the tread, balancing strength with cushioning.
Rubber wheels provide good traction on rough surfaces. Polyurethane wheels combine the abrasion resistance of plastic with the cushioning qualities of rubber. They can be used on smooth and rough floors and in areas with debris.
Sleeve wheel bearings prevent wear to the wheel bore but don't roll as easily as other bearings. Roller wheel bearings provide smoother rolling than sleeve bearings. Ball wheel bearings are the easiest to roll.
Casters have double-ball swivel bearings for the smoothest swiveling.

Mounting Sockets for Friction-Grip Stem Casters
Sockets for angle iron and channel mount to the sides or corners of angle iron and channel. Sockets for round tubing and square tubing press-fit into tubing. Use the round stem shape with grip-ring stem casters and the tapered round stem shape with grip-neck stem casters. Sockets for wood have teeth on the edge of the socket to grip wood legs for a secure hold.

Hollow-Tread Flat-Free Wheels
Tread
Pattern
Also known as semi-pneumatic wheels, these have a puncture-resistant tread and a pocket of nonpressurized air that provides additional cushion without inflation.Ball bearings are the easiest to roll.Side-mount hubs are offset for extra clearance between the wheel and your equipment.
Lug-fit rims have a series of indentations that line up with the tire’s lugs to lock the tire in place so it won’t slip on the rim.

The thick, solid rubber or polyurethane foam treads provide the cushioned ride of an air-filled pneumatic wheel without the possibility of a flat tire.
Rubber wheels are quiet, shock absorbing, and provide good traction on rough surfaces. Polyurethane foam wheels are lightweight and water- and UV resistant.
Polyurethane foam-filled wheels are lighter than solid rubber wheels. Ball bearings are the easiest to roll. Side-mount hubs are offset for extra clearance between the wheel and your equipment.

These wheels consist of an air-filled rubber tire on a steel rim and are among the quietest, most shock-absorbing wheels available.
Tires with an inner tube are more puncture resistant than tubeless tires. Ball bearings are the easiest to roll. Side-mount hubs are offset for extra clearance between the wheel and your equipment.
Two-piece rims consist of two pieces bolted together so the wheels can be quickly repaired or replaced.

Leveling Jacks with Wheel
Mount these jacks to equipment to raise and level it. A swivel caster lets you reposition your load.
Side Mount—Slide the frame of your equipment through the mounting plate.
Through-Hole Mount—Mount jacks through a hole in the frame of your equipment and fasten the mounting plate. These jacks are commonly used with an A-frame trailer coupler.
Locking pin locks the jack in a vertical position; pull the pin to rotate the jack into a horizontal position when not in use.
Warning: Never use to support people or loads over people.
