Engineering Specifications

Mounting Height for Casters Guide (2026)

Mounting height defines the interface distance between a caster and the equipment frame and is critical for alignment, stability, and load distribution.

Rolling Resistance for Casters Sizing & Spec (2026)

Rolling resistance is the force required to move a loaded caster and directly impacts push force, ergonomics, and system efficiency.

Overall Height for Casters Guide (2026)

Overall height defines the vertical distance from the floor to the caster mounting surface and directly impacts deck height, clearance, and ergonomics.

Swivel Radius for Casters Guide (2026)

Swivel radius defines the minimum clearance required for a swivel caster to rotate 360° without contacting nearby structures, corners, or guards.

Safety Factor for Casters Guide (2026)

Safety factor is the margin applied to caster load ratings to protect against shock loads, uneven distribution, and real-world operating conditions.

Static Load Rating for Casters Sizing & Spec (2026)

Static load rating defines the maximum weight a caster can support while stationary under ideal conditions. This specification applies only when equipment is not in motion.

Dynamic Load Rating for Casters Sizing & Spec (2026)

Dynamic load rating defines the maximum weight a caster can support while in motion. This specification accounts for rolling resistance, shock loading, and operating conditions that impact real-world performance.
