Overview
This kingpinless swivel caster has a phenolic 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. The 60.62.50.PHR.BIB features roller bearings for reliable performance and includes a built-in brake for added security and stability in your workplace.
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, phenolic wheels have their own benefits such as being resistant to oil, grease, gasoline and mild acids. Phenolic wheels are also known for their durability in high-temperature environments and their ability to handle heavier loads than many other wheel materials.
The roller bearings in this model provide excellent load distribution and durability for continuous use applications, while the built-in brake (BIB) provides reliable locking capability when movement is not desired, making this caster ideal for applications where both performance and security are required.
Applications
Applications for phenolic kingpinless casters with built-in brakes include industrial manufacturing, waste bins, platform trucks, job boxes in bakeries and woodworking facilities, particularly in environments where equipment needs to be secured in place periodically. Phenolic wheels are particularly well-suited for environments where exposure to chemicals, oils, and moderate heat is common. These casters perform exceptionally well in food processing plants, chemical facilities, automotive shops, and industrial kitchens. Click here to learn more about our phenolic wheels.
This model comes equipped with a built-in brake ("BIB") for added safety and stability. The built-in brake provides secure locking when needed while maintaining the mobility benefits of a swivel caster.
