Overview
The 2 Series Swivel Caster with RAPB wheel and Heavy Duty specification is designed for light duty applications but features a polyurethane wheel with a radius tread and ball bearing, which enhances its performance and durability. This caster is ideal for environments where maneuverability and floor protection are essential, such as hospitals, food processing facilities, and light duty carts. The radius tread on the polyurethane wheel provides smooth rolling and excellent traction, making it suitable for a variety of surfaces. Ball bearings are sealed and pre-lubricated, ensuring better ergonomics and reduced maintenance requirements.
