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.

6" x 2-1/2" Forged Steel Casters

Diameter: 6 inTread: 2-1/2, 3 inCapacity: up to 3,200 lb

6" x 2-1/2" Forged Steel Casters for heavy warehouse carts, die carts, and plant fixtures. Catalog chips cover wheel diameters 6 in, steel treads, and plate-mount frames. For dual-wheel or wide treads, check fork clearance and swivel radius in tight aisles. Bring plate and stem measurements when replacing unmarked casters so the new corners sit level. These heavy-duty options cover everyday heavy warehouse carts, die carts, and plant fixtures without jumping to extreme forged series.
