Ranges from Hamilton product titles and fields on this page [S1].
A dual wheel caster splits the load between two wheels on one axle. Each wheel can turn at its own speed, so the caster swivels with less scrubbing than a single wheel of the same total width. That matters when the cart has to turn in place under several tons. Single wheels are simpler and suit straight runs.
Lower ratings: heavy duty casters. All Hamilton: Hamilton casters.
Hamilton dual wheel and large polyurethane and Nylast casters rated 40,000 lb per caster.
Use one when a very heavy load has to turn often. Two wheels on one axle swivel with less scrubbing than one wide wheel.
Polyurethane protects the floor and runs quieter. Nylast and steel roll with less effort but are harder on the slab.
None of the listings on this page include a brake. Use floor locks or chocks to hold a load in place.
