DuraStar Casters | 90 to 6,000 lb

These DuraStar casters are industrial plate casters for carts, racks, and fixtures across light to heavy duty. Casters in this collection range from about 90 to 6,000 lb per caster. Bare DuraStar wheels on this page can rate higher, about up to 7,000 lb per wheel. Wheel materials include polyurethane (poly or urethane), rubber, nylon, and phenolic. Soft polyurethane on aluminum (~85 Shore A) or TPR is the better pick when the floor has chips or debris. Most mounts are top plates in common industrial sizes. Choose swivel casters when the cart must turn in place, rigid casters for straight travel, and add a brake when the cart needs to stay put. Read the listing for the exact wheel size, overall height, and mount shown. Confirm the load rating printed on the title before you place your order today. Capacities below are per caster unless a listing says set. Broader plate aisle: plate casters. Poly aisle: polyurethane casters.

Questions

Why not 3,500 lb in the title?

Older SEO stopped at 3,500 lb. Verified active caster titles reach 6,000 lb per caster. H1 and SEO follow the true max.

Caster rating or wheel rating?

Brand hub mixes complete casters and bare wheels. Use the number on the listing. Finished casters are limited by the yoke as well as the wheel.
