Built to keep mobile storage secure under demanding service conditions, this stem caster delivers controlled movement and reliable braking for heavy shelving and carts. Designed for conductive environments, the component manages electrostatic concerns while enabling precise stopping under load. Operators gain consistent performance that integrates into existing shelving systems without redesign.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug equipment before cleaning. Remove caster from shelving post and lock brake. Wipe wheel and stem with a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove grease and debris. Inspect for wear and replace if wheel exceeds 1/8 inch flat spot or stem shows corrosion. Dry completely to prevent rust. Reinstall caster and test brake and swivel function. Regular cleaning reduces contamination, fire risk, energy waste, and equipment failure, helping you pass CSA inspections.#@@#Additional Info#@#Metro 5MBESD 5" stem conductive caster with brake offers grounded mobility and wheel lock for shelving; designed for 2.5 pounds load, zinc-plated stem, conductive wheel, and CSA-compliant grounding to reduce static in foodservice and healthcare.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#

#@@# 5 Inch Stem#@#
A five-inch wheel diameter provides a balance between load capacity and maneuverability, reducing rolling resistance across smooth and textured floors. Maintenance teams inspect wheels less frequently because the larger diameter limits wear and preserves rolling efficiency.
#@@# Conductive Wheel#@#
Engineered for conductive operation, the wheel dissipates static buildup that can disrupt sensitive equipment or packaged goods in regulated areas. Safety officers appreciate that conductive materials reduce electrostatic discharge risk during frequent repositioning.
#@@# Brake Mechanism#@#
A positive-action brake locks the wheel to prevent unintended drift on ramps or during service stops, increasing staff safety during loading and unloading. Supervisors rely on the brake to secure carts during staging and transfer tasks without additional chocking.
#@@# Standard Stem#@#
The stem attachment fits common shelving leg sockets, enabling retrofit installation across a wide range of existing units. Technicians complete swaps rapidly, minimizing downtime during fleet updates.
#@@# Durable Construction#@#
Manufacturers use materials rated for frequent use and moderate impact, providing consistent load handling measured in operational cycles. Facilities managers count on structural integrity to sustain routine movement without component failure.
#@@# Compact Footprint#@#
The caster maintains a low profile that preserves under-shelf clearance and does not significantly raise equipment height, allowing continued compatibility with doorways and conveyors.
