4 x 2 Casters and Wheels

This collection holds 4 in x 2 in Casters with polyurethane, phenolic and rubber wheels, built for warehouse carts, racks, and plant dollies. Casters in this collection range from 200 to 4,042 lb per caster. Wheels in this category are 4 inches in diameter with 2 in tread width. The collection includes swivel, rigid, and brake models. Polyurethane (poly or urethane) treads are quiet, floor safe, and resist water and many chemicals. Rubber wheels are quiet, cushion the load, and protect floors. Phenolic wheels are hard, roll with low effort, and handle debris well on unfinished floors. Plate and stem mounts are listed on each product so you can match bolt pattern or stem size before you order. Check load per caster, then pick tread for your floor and mount style for the cart. Choose swivel casters when the cart must turn in place and rigid casters for straight travel. Polyurethane aisle: polyurethane casters. Wheel hub: replacement wheels.

Questions

Caster capacity or wheel capacity?

Complete caster titles top out about 4,000 lb each. Bare wheels can list much higher with no yoke rating. Use the number on the listing you buy.

4 x 2 or 5 x 2?

5 x 2 rolls over debris easier and often carries more at the same plate family. 4 x 2 stays lower for tight carts and racks.
