Overview
The 61S.82.51.APB is a Series 61 kingpinless rigid caster featuring an 8-inch polyurethane wheel and a longer fork, specifically engineered to match the overall height and dimensions of its swivel counterpart. This design ensures seamless integration when paired with the corresponding swivel caster, providing consistent load height and optimal performance for heavy-duty industrial applications. The polyurethane wheel delivers excellent rollability and durability, making it ideal for demanding environments where both maneuverability and stability are required.
Benefits
- Heavy-duty kingpinless construction for enhanced durability and longevity in industrial settings.
- The longer fork design ensures the rigid caster aligns perfectly with the swivel version, maintaining consistent load height across all casters on the cart or equipment.
- Polyurethane wheels offer superior floor protection, longer service life, low rolling resistance, high dynamic load capacity, and high tear resistance.
- Ball bearings are sealed and pre-lubricated, providing better ergonomics and less maintenance.
- Excellent resistance to oil, grease, gasoline, and mild acids.
- Ideal for environments where both heavy loads and floor protection are priorities.

Applications
- Waste bins, platform trucks, and job boxes in manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution facilities.
- Environments requiring both high load capacity and floor protection, such as bakeries, woodworking shops, and assembly lines.
- Suitable for smooth floors where easy rollability and minimal floor damage are essential.
- Not recommended for areas with significant debris or metal shavings; in such cases, consider a caster with a lower durometer wheel material for better debris purging.
Selection Assistance
- When selecting casters, always calculate based on dynamic load capacity to ensure proper performance while in motion, not just when stationary.
- Consider the specific floor conditions—polyurethane wheels are optimal for smooth, debris-free surfaces and provide excellent weight capacity without damaging the floor.
