Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum weight this castor can support?
Each castor has a load capacity of 110kg. When using four castors together on a single piece of equipment, the combined maximum load capacity is 330kg. Always ensure loads are evenly distributed across all castors for optimal performance and safety.
Is this castor suitable for use on hard floors?
Yes, the polyurethane tread with 85 Shore A hardness is specifically designed to protect hard floors including tile, concrete, epoxy, and polished surfaces. The material provides excellent floor protection whilst maintaining low rolling resistance and quiet operation.
What are the mounting hole dimensions?
The top plate measures 100mm × 85mm with four 10mm diameter mounting holes. The hole centres are positioned at 60mm × 80mm, providing a standard fixing pattern compatible with most trolley and cart frames. Ensure you have appropriate fixings for secure installation.
Can this castor be used outdoors?
This castor is optimised for indoor use in warehouses, workshops, retail, and healthcare environments. For outdoor applications or exposure to weather, moisture, or extreme temperatures, we recommend exploring castors specifically designed for outdoor conditions.
What is the difference between swivel and fixed castors?
Swivel castors rotate 360 degrees, allowing easy directional changes and manoeuvrability in tight spaces. Fixed castors only roll in a straight line. For optimal performance, many applications use a combination: swivel castors at one end for steering and fixed castors at the other for stability.
How do I calculate the total height clearance needed?
The total castor height is 127mm from the base of the wheel to the top of the mounting plate. Add this measurement to the thickness of your equipment's base frame to determine the total ground clearance required for your application.
What maintenance does this castor require?
Regular inspection and cleaning of the wheel and bearing are recommended. Remove debris, dust, and buildup from the wheel tread and swivel mechanism. Periodic lubrication of the bearing will maintain smooth rotation and extend service life, particularly in high-use environments.
Are brakes available for this castor model?
This particular model does not include a brake mechanism. If you require braking functionality for your application, please explore our range of castors with integrated brake options, available in similar sizes and load capacities.
Why Choose This Castor?
Engineered for reliability and performance, this 100mm pressed steel swivel castor combines robust construction with precision engineering. The ball journal bearing delivers smooth, effortless rotation whilst the polyurethane-on-nylon wheel ensures long-lasting durability, floor protection, and quiet operation. Ideal for professional environments where quality, manoeuvrability, and dependable load-bearing performance are essential.
