#@@# Swivel With Brake#@#
Swivel action enables smooth directional changes for carts and shelving, reducing the force needed during maneuvers. The foot-operated brake locks the wheel securely to prevent unintended rolling, enhancing safety during loading and service.
#@@# Six Inch Wheel#@#
The 6" diameter wheel balances load distribution and clears obstacles, allowing units to pass thresholds and uneven surfaces with less vibration. Larger wheels reduce rolling resistance, easing frequent repositioning.
#@@# Polyurethane Tread#@#
Polyurethane flat tread resists abrasion and repeated rolling over kitchen floors while limiting scuffing and damage. It also reduces rolling noise, creating a calmer service environment in front- and back-of-house areas.
#@@# 1-1/2 Inch Face#@#
The 1-1/2" face width focuses contact for predictable tracking and stability under moderate loads. This profile helps wheels track straight when pushing loaded racks through narrow aisles.
#@@# 400 Pound Capacity#@#
Rated for 400 lbs. per caster, this component supports shelving and carts in restaurants, schools, and hospitals. It ensures confidence when moving stocked racks and equipment without overloading wheels.
#@@# Stem Mount Design#@#
Stem mounting simplifies retrofits and replacements on existing shelving and mobile units, allowing quick caster swaps with minimal downtime. The stem format fits various commercial rack designs with threaded or grip-type stems.
