About Casters and Wheels
More
Extra-High-Capacity Hercules Casters with Metal Wheels
Not only do these casters offer some of the highest capacities, they also withstand the stress of sudden impact. Impact-resistant tapered roller bearings in the wheel withstand both downward and side force. They can also withstand high temperature environments up to 350°F.
Dual-wheel casters provide better load distribution and easier turning than single-wheel casters.
Metal wheels roll best on smooth surfaces. Iron wheels offer the strength and wear resistance you need for heavy loads and long life. Steel wheels provide the highest capacities of any wheel material.
Swivel casters have completely sealed ball bearings for smooth swiveling and the best protection against dust and debris. The kingpinless swivel raceway distributes impact better than standard kingpin casters, enabling smooth swiveling and extending service life.
