Metro’s plate caster delivers dependable mobility and load support for heavy-duty shelving and dolly applications. Engineered for commercial environments, this swivel-lock caster uses an 8" diameter wheel with a 2" wide face and polyurethane tread to balance maneuverability and floor protection, while the swivel-lock feature lets staff secure equipment in place during loading and unloading.
#@@# Swivel-Lock Control#@#
Locking the swivel section prevents unwanted rotation under load, improving safety during transfers and inventory movement. Operators gain stable positioning when technicians must stage carts or maintain service lines.
#@@# Polyurethane Wheel Tread#@#
The polyurethane tread resists wear and cushions impact, reducing noise and minimizing floor marking on hard surfaces. Facilities preserve floor finishes while maintaining consistent rolling performance across tile, concrete, and sealed wood.
#@@# 2-Inch Wide Face#@#
A 2-inch face distributes weight across a broader contact patch, lowering surface pressure and improving tracking under load. Staff will notice fewer deviations when navigating aisles or passing through service doors.
#@@# 8-Inch Diameter#@#
The larger wheel diameter eases rolling over thresholds and debris, reducing start-up resistance and operator fatigue during frequent moves. Teams handling stacked trays or stocked carts experience smoother transit and steadier momentum.
#@@# 700 Pound Capacity#@#
Rated for a 700 lb. capacity, this caster supports commercial shelving and transport duties common in kitchens, warehouses, and hospitality back-of-house operations. Managers can spec these casters with confidence for medium-duty mobile systems.
#@@# Donut Bumpers#@#
Integrated donut bumpers protect equipment corners and adjacent fixtures during docking and maneuvering. Maintenance crews will find fewer impact repairs and less cosmetic damage to shelving units.
