Overview
This industrial rigid caster has a phenolic wheel with a diameter of 5 inches and is ideal for heavy duty industrial applications. This fixed caster, or rigid caster, is typically used in tandem with our 60 Series swivel casters. Most carts use 2 swivel and 2 rigid casters. This non-swivel caster offers excellent durability and load capacity for demanding industrial environments.
Benefits
The main benefit of the 60 Series rigid casters is their heavy-duty construction that allows for longer use, better ergonomics and more efficiency in industrial applications. Phenolic wheels have their own benefits such as being resistant to oil, grease, gasoline and mild acids. Ball bearings are sealed and pre-lubricated, providing better ergonomics and less maintenance.
Applications
Applications for casters with phenolic wheels include waste bins, platform trucks, job boxes in bakeries and woodworking facilities. These rigid casters are especially useful in industrial environments where exposure to chemicals and oils is common. Click here to learn more about our phenolic wheels.
