Durastar solid polyurethane wheels

This collection holds SPU with polyurethane treads, made to replace worn wheels on carts, dollies, racks, and equipment. Wheels in this collection range from 300 to 1,400 lb per wheel. Wheels in this category range from 3 up to 8 inches in diameter with 1-1/4 to 2 in tread widths. Polyurethane (poly or urethane) treads are quiet, floor safe, and resist water and many chemicals. Match the bore, hub length, diameter, and tread width before you order. Order the axle and spacers if the old ones are worn. Read the listing for the exact wheel size, overall height, and mount shown. Confirm the load rating printed on the title before you order. Measure the old wheel or caster before you buy. Check the floor type and the heaviest load the cart will carry before you choose. Call or email CasterHQ with the part number from the old unit if you need help matching it. Polyurethane aisle: polyurethane casters. Caster hub: heavy duty casters.
