Benefits 

The main benefit of the industrial series casters is that they are cost effective and they improve ergonomics wherever industrial caster applications are necessary. In addition to benefits of the overall industrial caster category, phenolic wheels have their own benefits such as being resistant to oil, grease, gasoline and mild acids.
