Polyurethane Swivel Casters | 75 to 40,000 lb

These polyurethane swivel casters (poly or urethane) are ideal when you need excellent floor protection, non-marking treads, quieter rolling, and a smoother ride than steel or phenolic wheels. Casters in this collection range from about 75 lb per caster on light institutional builds up through heavy industrial and dual-wheel ratings. Common uses include material handling carts, warehouse equipment, medical carts, and food service lines. Soft polyurethane on aluminum (~85 Shore A) or TPR is the better pick when the floor has chips or debris. Harder treads do not clear chips as well. Match a top plate or stem to your frame, then choose swivel only or swivel with brake. Capacities below are per caster unless a listing says set. Wheel sizes and overall heights vary so you can fit the clearance you have. See all polyurethane casters or all swivel casters for a wider mix of cores and duty classes.

Questions

Why not 9,700 lb in the title?

Older SEO stopped near 9,700 lb. Verified active titles reach 40,000 lb per caster on Hamilton UMD poly swivels. H1 and SEO follow the true max.

Swivel only or rigid too?

This hub is swivel. Rigid poly siblings live on the broader polyurethane casters parent and rigid poly collections.
