Overview
This kingpinless swivel caster has a nylon caster wheel with a diameter of 6 inches and is ideal for heavy duty industrial applications. This swivel caster has more benefits and better overall ergonomics than the standard industrial caster.
Benefits
The main benefit of the kingpinless series casters is that they eliminate the use of the kingpin which allows for longer use, better ergonomics and more efficiency. In addition to benefits of the overall kingpinless caster category, nylon wheels have their own benefits such as being resistant to moisture and chemicals and they are well suited for corrosive environments or applications where sanitary conditions are important.
Applications
Applications for nylon wheel kingpinless casters include industrial manufacturing and warehousing. You'll see casters with nylon wheels on waste bins, platform trucks, job boxes and in bakeries, woodworking facilities and in the aerospace, automotive and food processing industries.
