Metro's 5" stem caster delivers dependable mobility for shelving and utility carts in high-use foodservice environments. Designed for compatibility with MetroMax posts and shelves, the caster offers a 1-1/4" face width and a flat resilient tread that balances floor protection and rolling performance, and NSF certification confirms suitability for commercial operations.
#@@# Rigid Stem#@#
A fixed orientation stem maintains straight-line tracking for carts and racks, reducing drift during transport. This configuration simplifies routing in narrow aisles and minimizes side-to-side wear on wheel hubs.
#@@# Resilient Wheel#@#
The flat resilient tread cushions impacts and guards floor finishes while providing consistent traction across tile and concrete. Operators can expect quieter operation compared with hard wheels, improving kitchen and storage area acoustics.
#@@# 5 Inch Diameter#@#
A 5" wheel diameter eases rolling over thresholds and minor obstructions, lowering the required push force. Staff experience reduced fatigue during repeated moves in busy service cycles.
#@@# 1-1/4 Inch Face#@#
The 1-1/4" face width distributes load across a broader contact area, limiting surface indentation on softer floors. This width also stabilizes heavy loads when transporting stacked trays or supplies.
#@@# 200 Pound Capacity#@#
Rated for 200 pounds, the caster supports typical shelving and cart loads found in back-of-house and service areas. Managers can specify these casters where moderate-duty handling requires reliable performance without overengineering.
#@@# NSF Certified#@#
NSF certification ensures the caster meets hygiene and safety standards for commercial food environments, and included donut bumpers protect adjacent equipment from contact damage. Maintenance teams can integrate these casters into MetroMax systems with confidence in regulatory compliance.
