Built for continuous use in demanding service environments, this caster delivers dependable mobility and rated load performance for shelving, prep stations, and transport carts. Designed to support 198 pounds per wheel, the unit fits standard 5-inch stem sockets and uses resilient rubber tread to reduce floor wear and dampen noise. Operators will appreciate the NSF compliance and compact profile that integrates seamlessly with existing equipment workflows.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug equipment and remove load. Mix mild detergent with warm water (use gallons or liters as needed). Scrub rubber wheel and stem with a non-abrasive brush; rinse thoroughly. Inspect for cracks, wear, and loose fasteners; tighten or replace parts promptly. Clean surrounding floor and wheel wells to remove grease and debris that cause fires and breakdowns. Dry components completely before returning to service to maintain CSA compliance and efficient operation.#@@#Additional Info#@#Thunder Group PLC B5140 caster supports 198 pounds and has a 5-inch rubber wheel with stem mount and no brake for smooth maneuvering. NSF certified, it weighs 2.88 pounds for easy installation and replacement.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#

#@@# Wheel Load Capacity#@#
Each caster supports a rated capacity of 198 pounds, enabling multi-wheel assemblies to handle heavy loads without risk of premature failure. Engineers sized the load rating to match common kitchen racks and mobile units, simplifying specification for new installations.
#@@# Five Inch Diameter#@#
A 5-inch diameter wheel provides a predictable rolling radius that balances maneuverability with obstacle clearance. Technicians find that this size reduces drag on tile and sealed concrete while maintaining stable tracking under load.
#@@# Stem Mount Design#@#
The stem mounting system allows quick replacement and retrofitting to compatible posts, minimizing downtime during maintenance cycles. Field crews can swap a worn caster in minutes using basic hand tools, restoring mobility without specialist intervention.
#@@# Rubber Tread Construction#@#
Rubber tread reduces transmitted vibration and protects finished floors from scuffs and scratches during repeated movements. Staff notice lower rolling noise and smoother handling when moving stocked carts across service corridors.
#@@# Brake Configuration Without Brakes#@#
This caster ships without a brake to support free-rolling applications where locking would impede frequent repositioning and staging tasks. Planning teams can place these on units that rely on central locking or other restraint systems to secure equipment when stationary.
#@@#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 weekly for debris and wear, then remove contaminants with a nylon brush and mild detergent to prevent abrasion. Apply a light coat of food‑safe lubricant to the stem every three months and tighten stem fasteners to specified torque values. Replace casters showing flat spots, cracked rubber, or bearing play to maintain load stability. Record maintenance actions and service intervals to ensure regulatory compliance and consistent performance.
