Water-Resistant Rubber Wheels
Made of TPE rubber, these wheels outlast standard rubber wheels with better resistance to water, steam, and mild acids. Wheels have a rubber tread for shock resistance with a hard polypropylene core for strength. Use them on smooth or rough surfaces. Sleeve bearings prevent wear to the wheel bore but don't roll as easily as other bearings.

Rubber Wheels
Solid rubber wheels offer a durable ride with no possibility of tread separation. Sleeve bearings in these wheels prevent wear to the wheel bore but don't roll as easily as other bearings.
Soft wheels are shock absorbing and provide good traction on rough surfaces.

Low-Profile Threaded-Stem Casters with Polypropylene Wheels
These casters are offered with low mount heights to keep equipment like business machines and display fixtures stable. The lightweight polypropylene wheels are an economical option for smooth surfaces. Flanged-sleeve wheel bearings prevent wear to the wheel bore but don't roll as easily as other bearings. The swivel has double-ball bearings for the smoothest swiveling.

Light Duty Furniture Threaded-Stem Casters with Nylon Wheels
Also known as twin-wheel casters, these lightweight and economical casters are often used on furniture and displays. Their durable nylon wheels are impact and wear resistant. Wheels ride directly on the axle rather than on bearings, making them an economical choice for equipment not frequently moved. They work well on smooth surfaces.
Casters with wheel brake apply pressure to the wheel to stop movement with a press of the foot pedal.

Light Duty Furniture Friction-Grip Stem Casters with Nylon Wheels
Also known as twin-wheel casters, these lightweight and economical casters are often used on displays. Friction on their stem's grip ring holds them in place. The nylon wheels are impact and wear resistant. Wheels ride directly on the axle rather than on bearings, making them an economical choice for equipment not frequently moved. They work well on smooth surfaces.
Lightly step on casters with a foot-pedal brake to stop movement.
Leveling Plate Casters
Use screws or bolts to attach the mounting plate on these casters to a flat surface. Adjust the leveling pad to keep your equipment stationary and compensate for uneven floors.
Nylon wheels are impact- and wear-resistant. They work well on smooth surfaces. Double-ball bearings swivel more smoothly than ball bearings.
Turn the thumb wheel to lower or raise the leveling pad.

Skate Wheels
Replace damaged wheels or use multiple wheels to build a custom conveyor.
ABS wheels are nonmarking, acid resistant, and quieter than metal.

Flow Rails
Use rails to convey packages and pallets in flow racks and confined spaces. They are easier to maneuver and take up less area than a full conveyor.
Rails with a galvanized steel frame have a thick coating for more corrosion resistance than rails with a power-coated frame.
Note: Capacities are based on a fully supported rail.

Flanged-Wheel Flow Rails
The flange on the wheels separates and guides packages as they flow down the rails. Rails are a lightweight solution when you don't need a complete conveyor in confined spaces such as flow racks and assembly areas. The flange location is based on facing the unloading end of the rail.
Note: Capacities are based on a fully supported rail.

T-Slotted Framing Mounting Feet and Casters
Add mounting feet and casters to T-slotted framing structures to level equipment, anchor legs to the floor, or add mobility.
Swivel casters swivel 360°.
To install stem-mount casters, tap a hole in the end of a vertical T-slotted rail and screw in the stem.
