Overview
This heavy duty kingpinless swivel caster has a polyurethane caster wheel with radius tread and a diameter of 6 inches, specifically designed for extreme industrial applications requiring maximum durability. The 60.62.50.RAPB.HD model features a radius tread ("R") polyurethane wheel that offers enhanced maneuverability and reduced rolling resistance. Ball bearings are sealed and pre-lubricated, providing better ergonomics and less maintenance.
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. This heavy duty (HD) model with radius tread polyurethane wheel takes these benefits further with improved maneuverability for the most demanding environments. The radius tread design allows the wheel to move more easily over obstacles and turn with less effort, while still providing all the standard benefits of polyurethane wheels, such as superior floor protection, longer service life, low rolling resistance, high dynamic load capacity and high tear resistance.
