Blickle Swivel Casters

This collection holds Blickle Swivel Casters with polyurethane, rubber and metal wheels, built for shop carts, equipment, and material handling carts that move heavier loads. Casters in this collection range from 200 to 2,000 lb per caster. Wheels in this category range from 1-3/8 up to 16 inches in diameter with 1-1/16 to 10 in tread widths. The collection includes swivel models. Kingpinless swivels hold up better under shock and repeat loads. 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. Metal wheels roll with low effort and handle debris and heat. They are loud and can mark finished floors. Soft rubber or TPR is the better pick when the floor has chips or grit. Match the stem size and thread before you order. Read the listing for the exact wheel size, overall height, and mount shown. Polyurethane aisle: polyurethane casters. Wheel hub: replacement wheels.
