LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug or shut off equipment before cleaning. Remove debris and scrub surfaces with a mild detergent solution; rinse with clear water and dry completely. Degrease ovens, vents, and hoods using an alkaline cleaner and a stiff brush to remove combustible buildup. Clean condenser coils and fan blades to improve efficiency and lower utility costs. Replace worn seals and inspect casters and wheels for damage to avoid breakdowns and pass CSA and NSF inspections.#@@#Additional Info#@#Metro's 5PCBXM polymer stem caster with brake has a 5" polyurethane tread and 1-1/4" face, supports 300 pounds, operates from -20°F to 120°F, includes Microban protection, is NSF compliant, and fits MetroMax posts and shelves.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#

#@@# Wheel Material#@#
Polyurethane wheel tread resists abrasion and preserves floor finishes, enabling sustained mobility under continuous loading conditions. Maintenance crews will notice reduced wear compared with softer compounds, while operators benefit from consistent rolling resistance across temperature variations.
#@@# Load Capacity#@#
Rated for a 300 lb capacity per caster, this unit supports high-density shelving and equipment loads in kitchens, storerooms, and supply corridors. Facility managers can specify fewer support points for mobile racks while maintaining structural stability during transport.
#@@# Brake Mechanism#@#
The integrated brake locks wheel rotation and swivel simultaneously to secure mobile units during loading and unloading operations. Staff obtain immediate stopping power without tools, increasing safety during transfer tasks and reducing rollaway incidents.
#@@# Temperature Range#@#
Operates from -20°F to 120°F, allowing use in cold storage, prep areas, and heated utility rooms without material degradation. Engineers can standardize caster selection across multiple temperature zones, simplifying inventory and spare parts management.
#@@# Antimicrobial Protection#@#
Microban antimicrobial product protection inhibits microbial growth on exposed surfaces, addressing hygiene protocols in clinical, food service, and educational settings. Infection control teams will appreciate an additional passive layer of contamination control that complements routine cleaning.
#@@#Delivery Details#@#
• Please ensure to handle the product with utmost care.
• Check if the product you have received has all the essential parts and accessories.
• Make sure to examine the product for damage before signing the delivery receipt.
• Contact customer service for delivery concerns.
• Delivery times may vary based on location.#@@#deliverynotes#@#NA#@@#Maintenance Guide#@#Inspect caster mounting and stem fit monthly to prevent instability and unscheduled downtime. Clean polyurethane treads with a neutral detergent and dry thoroughly to avoid wheel distortion. Lubricate swivel bearings with a light machine oil every six months and replace worn brake components immediately. Verify load distribution so each caster carries no more than 300 pounds. Store units between -20° F and 120°F to preserve material integrity.
