Case Goods Casters

This collection holds Case Goods Casters with rubber wheels, built for light carts, racks, and stands. Casters in this collection range from 220 to 440 lb per caster. Wheels in this category range from 3 up to 5 inches in diameter with a 1-1/4 in tread width. The collection includes swivel, rigid, and brake models. Rubber wheels are quiet, cushion the load, and protect floors. Soft rubber or TPR is the better pick when the floor has chips or grit. Common uses include food service, bakeries, hospitals, schools, laboratories, and material handling carts. 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. Rubber aisle: rubber casters. Wheel hub: replacement wheels.
