The below capacity ranges indicate the working (dynamic) load that each caster will support. A safety factor should be included in your formula to determine your required load rating per caster.

W/(C-1)=R W is total weight needed to move. C is total number of casters required. R is ideal load rating, with safety factor built in. Divide the total load weight by one less caster than you will use to safely determine load rating.

This collection holds Hamilton 5 in x 2 in Forged Steel Casters, built for shop carts, equipment, and material handling carts that move heavier loads. Casters in this collection are rated 800 lb per caster. Wheels in this category are 5 inches in diameter with a 2 in tread width. The collection includes swivel and rigid models. Kingpinless swivels hold up better under shock and repeat loads. Forged steel wheels carry very heavy loads and handle impact, debris, and heat. They are loud and will mark finished floors. Match plate size, bolt pattern, and overall height before you order. Choose swivel casters when the cart must turn in place and rigid casters for straight travel. Read the listing for the exact wheel size, overall height, and mount shown. Confirm the load rating printed on the title before you order. Measure the old wheel or caster before you buy. Forged steel aisle: forged steel casters. Wheel hub: replacement wheels.
