Heavy Duty, Swivel Corrosion-Resistant Kingpinless Plate Caster; 3000 lb. Load Rating, 6" Wheel Dia.

Corrosion-resistant extra-heavy-duty kingpinless plate casters have stainless-steel frames that resist rusting. They are suitable for use on industrial carts, dough trucks, bakery racks, food-processing carts or machinery, and other heavy equipment that will be used in environments where they will be exposed to corrosives like water or cleaning chemicals, such as chemical- and pharmaceutical-manufacturing plants, food-production facilities, laboratories, hatcheries, and fisheries. The casters have large-diameter ball bearings and large-diameter hardened bearing raceways that distribute loads evenly across the casters, allowing them to bear heavier loads, tolerate more frequent use, and withstand more impact than medium-duty or heavy-duty casters.

Impact-resistant kingpinless plate casters do not use a kingpin to hold the caster together. They distribute weight more evenly, roll more smoothly, tolerate higher speeds, and have better resistance to impacts and shock forces than standard plate casters that are held together with kingpins. The casters' mounting plate attaches to the bottom of machinery, carts, or other equipment. The caseters allow the equipment to roll, which reduces effort when moving or repositioning it. Kingpinless plate casters are available in swivel and rigid versions. Swivel casters can rotate 360°, allowing equipment to change directions while rolling. Rigid casters roll in a straight line. Two rigid casters will often be paired with two swivel casters to allow the equipment to both maneuver around curves and obstacles and maintain a straight course while rolling. Kingpinless plate casters are used in aggressive applications where they will encounter shock forces and heavy loads or be moving at high speeds.
