About Casters and Wheels
More
Samson Casters with Rubber Wheels
These are general purpose casters for moderately heavy loads. The wheels have a hard core for strength and a soft, cushioning rubber tread for rolling over rough surfaces.
These casters have roller wheel bearings for smooth rolling.
Swivel casters have double-ball bearings for the smoothest swiveling. Casters with swivel lock prevent the caster from swiveling with a twist of the ring. Twist the hand plunger to prevent the caster from swiveling. Casters with total lock brake the wheel and lock the swivel with one press of the foot pedal.
Shielded bearings provide protection from dust and debris. Sealed bearings are completely sealed for the best protection against dust and debris.
Add optional wheel brakes to prevent the caster from rolling. To install, replace the wheel's existing bushing with the brake bushing and position the brake pedal so it is parallel to the ground. Optional swivel locks prevent the caster from swiveling with a twist of the ring.
