Find Your Heavy Duty Caster Wheels

Heavy duty casters and industrial casters are the critical hardware typically attached to the bottoms of a cart, dolly, or material handling equipment which supports the load of what is being moved. The applications and industries they are used for can range from medical, automotive, warehouse, shopping carts, construction, and much, much more to name a few. The big casters wheel size, specs, and fastening types of these casters all play an important role in determining the right caster for your needs. In fact, the varying tread types such as Non-marking Polyurethane, Thermoplastic Rubber, Nylon, Plastic, or Steel are among the widest used in the market and are what usually takes on the bumps and turns in your everyday rolling adventures or tasks. Choosing the correct iron casters for your needs means finding the best fit for the type of environment you will have your cart on and this will affect how your cart takes on its jobs.

Another important factor is the Load Capacity required for your cart or project. Make sure you are using the max load weight on your cart or project for determining the minimum load capacity for your specific heavy duty casters. For example, if you can only load a maximum of 2,000 lbs. per cart or object, then you will need a minimum of 525 lbs. per locking casters in load capacity to ensure the proper fitment for your needs. The empty cart may only way up to 200 lbs. without the max load which means you need to compensate for the 1800 pounds of excess load in addition to achieve the full 2,000 lbs. load capacity needed.
