Stop wasting staff time on ineffective wheels. This caster offers a high load capacity within a compact design, enabling heavy carts to glide smoothly across busy kitchen floors. Operators will minimize downtime and maintain a steady service flow by equipping durable, purpose-built casters on stock carts and transport racks.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug carts and remove loads. Wipe wheel housings and mounting plate with a mild detergent and hot water, then rinse. Scrub polypropylene caster tread with a soft brush to remove grease and debris. Inspect for wear on the 3-3/4" x 2-1/2" plate and replace if cracked. Lubricate plate bolts sparingly with a food-safe lubricant. Clean weekly in busy kitchens to stop sickness, prevent fires, cut utility use, avoid breakdowns, and pass CSA inspections.#@@#Additional Info#@#Omcan USA 43568 caster fits solid top stock carts and mounts with a 3-3/4" x 2-1/2" plate; the fixed polypropylene wheel measures 5" diameter by 1-1/2" thick, supports 242 pounds, weighs 2.5 pounds, and serves models 13118, 23731, and 31277.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Stop wasting staff time on ineffective wheels. This caster offers a high load capacity within a compact design, enabling heavy carts to glide smoothly across busy kitchen floors. Operators will minimize downtime and maintain a steady service flow by equipping durable, purpose-built casters on stock carts and transport racks.
#@@# Fixed Mount#@#
Mounting utilizes a 3-3/4 inch by 2-1/2 inch plate that attaches directly to cart frames for immediate structural support. Installers will achieve stable attachment points that resist twisting under load, as the plate dimensions align with common commercial cart patterns.
#@@# Five Inch Wheel#@#
A 5 inch diameter wheel provides low rolling resistance while maintaining ground clearance for uneven surfaces. Staff will move stocked carts with less effort, reducing strain and speeding up product transfer between prep and service areas.
#@@# Polypropylene Construction#@#
Manufacturers chose polypropylene for the wheel material due to its wear resistance and chemical tolerance. Maintenance crews will clean wheels quickly and avoid corrosion concerns when exposed to common cleaning agents and wet environments.
#@@# High Load Rating#@#
Engineers rated this caster for a maximum load of 242 pounds, allowing single wheels to support heavy loads typical of stocked carts. Managers can calculate safe load distribution across multi-wheel carts to optimize inventory transport without risking failure.
#@@# Rigid Configuration#@#
The rigid design fixes wheel direction, providing precise straight-line tracking that enhances control during long runs. Operators navigating tight corridors will maintain predictable cart paths and reduce accidental contact with equipment or fixtures.
#@@# Brake-Free Design#@#
The absence of brakes simplifies the caster and eliminates brake-related failures, lowering parts replacement frequency. Facilities focused on continuous movement will benefit from fewer mechanical service calls and straightforward inspections.
#@@#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 casters monthly and tighten mounting plate fasteners to 3-5 ft·lb torque to prevent loosening. Clean polypropylene wheels with mild detergent and warm water; rinse and dry thoroughly to avoid debris buildup. Lubricate swivel bearings quarterly with food-grade lubricant rated for CSA environments. Replace any caster exceeding 242 pounds load or showing flat spots. Verify carts remain level and avoid chemical solvents that degrade polypropylene.
