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.

Casters on the 4 x 4-1/2 plate pattern suit warehouse carts, racks, and everyday plant fixtures. Typical builds show wheel diameters 6 in, cast iron and steel treads, and capacities 1,200 lb. For dual-wheel or wide treads, check fork clearance and swivel radius in tight aisles. Pair swivel and rigid casters for tracking, or use total locks where the cart must park on a grade.
