Caster shims and weld plates — steel shims for fine-tuning caster mount height (uneven floors, height matching across multiple casters) and weld-on plates for adding caster mounting surfaces to equipment that doesn't have factory mounts. Standard 4 x 4-1/2 and 5-1/4 x 7-1/4 sizes. Stocked at our Mansfield, TX facility.
Shims adjust caster mount height in 1/16, 1/8, and 1/4 inch increments. Weld plates create a flat mounting surface where one doesn't exist. Both are common in OEM and equipment retrofit work.
When a 4-caster cart has 1 corner that doesn't touch the floor, shim that caster to level the cart.
When equipment has no caster mount, weld a plate to the equipment leg and bolt the caster to the plate.
1/16, 1/8, 1/4 inch standard increments. Stack multiple for thicker adjustments.
Shims and weld plates match standard caster plate sizes — 4 x 4-1/2 most common.
