Hospitality Casters · 5"–8" · 125–1,000 lb · Rubber

These hospitality and luggage cart casters fit shop carts, equipment, and material handling carts that move heavier loads. Casters in this collection range from 130 to 1,000 lb per caster. Wheels are 4 to 8 in TPR, phenolic, and pneumatic in swivel, rigid, and brake models. Sets of 4 show the combined set rating on the title, so divide by 4 for the per caster load. Wheel options include polyurethane, nylon, phenolic, and forged steel, so match the tread to the floor and the load. Softer polyurethane or soft rubber or TPR tread is the better pick when the floor has chips or grit. Match plate size, bolt pattern, and overall height before you order. 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. Heavy duty hub: heavy duty casters. Plate aisle: plate casters.

Air or solid

Pneumatic tires ride over door sills, elevator gaps and carpet edges with little noise and jolt, which suits luggage carts. They need air and can puncture. Solid thermo rubber never goes flat, carries more and is the better fit for housekeeping carts that live indoors.
