About Casters and Wheels
More
Flat-Free Casters with Rubber Wheels
The solid rubber wheels on these casters cushion as well as pneumatic wheels but won't go flat. Use them on smooth or rough surfaces.
Wheels either have sleeve or ball bearings. Sleeve bearings prevent wear to the wheel bore. Ball bearings in the wheel provide easy rolling. Shielded ball bearings also resist dust and debris.
Swivel casters have double-ball bearings for the smoothest swiveling. Casters with wheel brake apply pressure to the wheel to stop movement with a press of the foot pedal.

Flat-Free Casters with Polyurethane Wheels
The solid rubber wheels on these casters cushion as well as pneumatic wheels but won't go flat. Use them on smooth or rough floors and in areas with debris.
Ball bearings in the wheel provide easy rolling.
Swivel casters have double-ball bearings for the smoothest swiveling. Casters with wheel brake apply pressure to the wheel to stop movement with a press of the foot pedal.

High-Capacity Flat-Free Casters with Rubber Wheels
These wheels cushion just as well as pneumatic casters over smooth or rough surfaces but are filled with polyurethane foam so they won't go flat. Their dual-wheel design provides better load distribution and easier turning than single-wheel casters.
The wheels have roller bearings for smooth rolling.
Swivel casters have double-ball bearings for the smoothest swiveling.

Solid-Tread Flat-Free Wheels
Tread
Pattern
Tread
Pattern
The thick, solid rubber or polyurethane foam treads provide the cushioned ride of an air-filled pneumatic wheel without the possibility of a flat tire.
Rubber wheels are quiet, shock absorbing, and provide good traction on rough surfaces. Polyurethane foam wheels are lightweight and water- and UV resistant.
Polyurethane foam-filled wheels are lighter than solid rubber wheels.
Roller bearings provide smooth rolling. Ball bearings are the easiest to roll.
Center-mount hubs are symmetrical for equal clearance on both sides of the wheel. Side-mount hubs are offset for extra clearance between the wheel and your equipment.
Lug-fit rims have a series of indentations that line up with the tire’s lugs to lock the tire in place so it won’t slip on the rim.
