All measurements indicate the wheel diameter by the tread width.
The below capacity ranges indicate the working (dynamic) load that each caster will support. A safety factor should be included in your formula to determine your required load rating per caster.
W/(C-1)=R W is total weight needed to move. C is total number of casters required. R is ideal load rating, with safety factor built in. Divide the total load weight by one less caster than you will use to safely determine load rating.
Plate dimensions shown are overall mounting plate size.
When replacing existing casters, select the closest plate size and verify bolt-hole compatibility.
BHP = Bolt Hole Pattern, shown under each plate.

Ratings on this page run 230 to 325 lb per caster. The highest is 325 lb, a 5 in performa gray rubber caster. For a cart on four casters, divide the loaded weight by three to get the rating each caster needs, so the load is still covered when one caster lifts on an uneven floor.
Measure the overall plate on your old caster with calipers, then the center-to-center spacing of the bolt holes. Both must match for a bolt-on swap. Hole spacing is listed on each product page.
Same-Day Ship applies to in-stock items ordered by noon CST. Larger casters can ship by freight.
