Heavy Duty Plate Mount Caster 8" PVC Wheel 992 lbs Load, Pkg Qty 12

Overview

Engineered for demanding industrial environments, this heavy-duty plate mount caster delivers exceptional load-bearing capacity and maneuverability. The unit features an 8-inch PVC wheel specifically designed to support static loads up to 992 lbs per caster. Constructed with a robust polyolefin housing, the assembly ensures long-term durability while providing a non-marking surface that protects sensitive factory flooring from scuffs and damage. The integrated swivel mechanism allows for smooth 360-degree rotation, facilitating easy navigation of tight corners and complex pathways in warehouses and manufacturing facilities. An included reliable braking system locks both the wheel and the swivel head simultaneously, ensuring precise positioning and enhanced safety during loading, unloading, or stationary periods.
