LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Remove the caster from the cart or shelving unit. Wipe the wheel and stem with a cloth soaked in mild detergent and warm water. Scrub grease and debris from the rubber tread with a soft brush, rinse, and dry completely. Inspect the bumper and stem for wear, replacing if damaged. Lubricate swivel bearings with machine oil, spin to distribute, and tighten the stem securely. Clean monthly or more often in heavy-use kitchens to reduce bacteria and prevent issues.#@@#Additional Info#@#The Metro 5Ld Super Erecta stem caster swivels on a 5" rubber donut wheel with a 15/16" face, supports 125 lbs, and features an integrated bumper for impact protection and durable rolling for shelving and foodservice equipment.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Engineered for heavy-duty shelving systems, this stem caster delivers reliable mobility and long service life for commercial kitchens, hospitals, and institutional settings. Designed with a resilient rubber donut tread and a 5" diameter wheel, the unit supports up to 125 pounds while minimizing floor damage and noise during transport.
#@@# Resilient Wheel Tread#@#
The rubber donut tread provides traction and shock absorption for smooth rolling across tile and sealed concrete. It reduces vibration transfer to shelving, protecting stacked goods and equipment during movement.
#@@# Compact Wheel Diameter#@#
The 5" diameter balances load handling with low rolling resistance, enabling easier maneuvering in tight aisles. Maintenance crews and staff can reposition racks with fewer starts and stops, improving workflow efficiency.
#@@# Standard Face Width#@#
A 15/16" face offers stable contact area for consistent load distribution and reduced point loading on wheel bearings. This specification supports predictable performance under repetitive use in service environments.
#@@# Swivel Stem Design#@#
The swivel configuration allows full 360-degree rotation for agile directional changes and reduced effort when guiding carts. Operators gain tighter turning radii without sacrificing control during high-traffic operations.
#@@# Stem Caster Construction#@#
The stem mounting integrates with standard shelving posts to create a secure, low-profile connection that resists loosening under cyclic movement. Technicians benefit from straightforward installation and consistent fit across compatible systems.
#@@# Included Bumper#@#
An integrated bumper protects shelving ends and adjacent fixtures from impact during positioning and storage changes. Facility teams reduce cosmetic damage and prolong the useful life of storage units through controlled stops and cushioned contact.
