Metro's stem caster with brake offers durability and control for shelving and mobile equipment in commercial kitchens and service environments. Designed for MetroMax posts and shelves, it features a 5" resilient wheel that absorbs shock and ensures smooth movement under load, while the brake secures carts and racks during service. Engineers optimized rolling efficiency and stopping power to reduce drift and protect stored items during handling.
#@@# Resilient Wheel#@#
The 5" resilient tread ensures smooth rolling on vinyl and concrete surfaces, minimizing vibration to shelving and contents. It reduces noise, protects floors, and maintains traction for controlled movement.
#@@# Brake Control#@#
The integrated brake locks the wheel to prevent unintended motion during loading, unloading, or staging. This improves safety and stability without external locking mechanisms.
#@@# Stem Mounting#@#
The stem design allows direct installation into MetroMax posts and shelves, ensuring compatibility with Metro systems. Technicians can replace or upgrade casters quickly, minimizing maintenance downtime.
#@@# Load Capacity#@#
Rated for 200 pounds, the caster supports typical shelf and cart loads in food service and institutional settings. This capacity helps match components to operational needs.
#@@# Donut Bumpers#@#
Molded bumpers absorb impact at shelf corners, reducing collisions and protecting shelving and nearby equipment. This minimizes repairs and cosmetic damage in high-traffic areas.
#@@# NSF Certification#@#
Certified for foodservice use, the caster meets NSF standards for MetroMax systems. Procurement teams can specify these casters confidently for health-regulated spaces.
