Handle heavy loads confidently with the Metro polymer stem caster for commercial shelving systems. This rigid 5" caster combines durable polyurethane tread with a compact 1-1/4" face, ensuring reliable mobility and long service life for foodservice and institutional use. Performance remains consistent across a wide temperature range, and NSF certification confirms its suitability for sanitary operations.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug the caster-equipped cart or shelving unit and remove loads. Wipe wheels and stems with a mild detergent solution and a soft cloth, removing grease and debris from the polyurethane treads and 1-1/4" face. Inspect stem fit and donut bumpers; replace worn bumpers to maintain NSF compliance. Clean wheel bearings and race surfaces, then dry completely and apply a light lubricant if specified by Metro. Reinstall items and test movement to confirm smooth, safe operation.#@@#Additional Info#@#The Metro 5Pcrx polymer stem caster is a rigid 5" stem caster with a 1-1/4" wide face, polyurethane tread, -20°F to 120°F range, NSF certification, 300 lb capacity; fits MetroMax posts and shelves, includes donut bumpers.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Handle heavy loads confidently with the Metro polymer stem caster for commercial shelving systems.

#@@# Rigid Wheel Design#@#
Ensure directional stability with the rigid wheel configuration that resists steering under load. This design offers predictable tracking for loaded carts and shelving posts, reducing drift during transport and improving placement accuracy in tight spaces.
#@@# Polyurethane Tread#@#
Polyurethane tread balances floor protection and traction on hard surfaces. It minimizes marking and abrasion on tile or sealed concrete while maintaining rolling efficiency, reducing operator fatigue during repetitive moves.
#@@# Five Inch Diameter#@#
The 5" diameter wheel lowers rolling resistance and easily rolls over minor thresholds or debris. Larger wheels roll smoother under load, enabling faster transit across kitchen and pantry zones without requiring extra force.
#@@# Compact Face Width#@#
The 1-1/4" face width concentrates load distribution for tight-fit shelf posts and reduces the caster footprint. This profile works effectively with MetroMax posts and shelving, preserving clearance and alignment on modular systems.
#@@# Wide Temperature Range#@#
Operate confidently in temperatures from -20°F to 120°F without material degradation or performance loss. This tolerance ensures the caster performs in walk-in coolers, heated service lines, and dishroom exposures.
#@@# NSF Certified#@#
Use an NSF-certified component that meets sanitation standards for commercial food environments. Certification supports compliance initiatives and simplifies procurement for facilities managers and culinary operations.
#@@#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 the polyurethane tread of the Metro 5PCRX caster monthly for damage and replace if rollability is compromised. Clean the wheel and stem with neutral detergent and warm water; avoid solvents. Lightly lubricate the stem with dry-film lubricant and tighten fittings securely. Ensure each caster supports no more than 300 pounds. Rotate casters to distribute wear and store parts in a dry area between -20° F and 120° F.
