LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug the caster-equipped cart and remove loose debris. Wipe the 5" polyurethane wheel and 1-1/4" face with a damp cloth and mild detergent, focusing on the wheel tread and stem area. Remove grime from the stem and the mounting post; apply a light lubricant to the stem after drying to prevent corrosion. Inspect donut bumpers and fasteners; tighten or replace as needed. Reinstall wheels and test for smooth, rigid operation before returning the unit to service.#@@#Additional Info#@#The Metro 5Mdrxa stem caster is a rigid 5" diameter polyurethane-wheel caster with a 1-1/4" face and flat tread, rated for 250 pounds and NSF listed; donut bumpers included for use with MetroMax posts and shelves.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Metro stem caster ensures reliable mobility and load handling for commercial shelving and carts, designed to support demanding foodservice workflows with minimal maintenance. This rigid caster features a 5" wheel, 1-1/4" face, and flat polyurethane tread, balancing floor protection and roll performance. It complies with standards for regulated environments.
#@@# Rigid Wheel Design#@#
Rigid configuration locks wheel orientation for predictable tracking and reduced lateral movement, improving control during transport. This minimizes drift on straight runs, allowing operators to move stocked units with fewer adjustments.
#@@# Durable Polyurethane Tread#@#
Flat polyurethane tread resists abrasion, protects floors, and provides consistent rolling resistance under load. It withstands scuffs and contaminants common in kitchens and storage areas, extending caster lifespan.
#@@# 5-Inch Diameter#@#
Five-inch wheels reduce rolling resistance over thresholds and debris, lowering operator effort. The larger diameter also preserves wheel integrity under frequent use in high-traffic areas.
#@@# 1-1/4-Inch Face Width#@#
The 1-1/4" face ensures stable load distribution across the tread, reducing wear. It supports smoother motion on uneven surfaces and enhances load stability during handling.
#@@# 250 Pound Capacity#@#
Each caster is rated for 250 pounds, supporting heavy shelves and carts when used per system load requirements. Designers can calculate caster counts to meet payloads while maintaining safety margins.
#@@# Certified for Regulated Use#@#
These casters are approved for foodservice and institutional applications, meeting sanitation and performance standards. They are designed to pair effortlessly with MetroMax posts and shelves for reliable compliance.

Clean polyurethane wheel treads with a neutral pH cleaner and a soft brush to remove debris and prevent wheel wear. Lubricate stem bearings with a light machine oil every six months to maintain smooth rotation. Verify donut bumpers remain intact and replace if cracked to protect equipment. Confirm load limits and evenly distribute weight to prevent overloading and premature failure.
