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.

8" x 2" Rubber Wheels

Diameter: 8 inTread: 2, 2-1/2 inCapacity: up to 1,250 lb

8" x 2" Rubber Wheels for finished floors and quiet institutional carts. Expect wheel diameters 8 in, rubber treads, and industrial frames. Use kingpinless or heavy plate series when shock loads keep shearing kingpin races. For dual-wheel or wide treads, check fork clearance and swivel radius in tight aisles. These medium-duty options cover everyday finished floors and quiet institutional carts without jumping to extreme forged series.
