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.

Match a 4 x 4-1/2 top plate when bolting casters under finished floors and quiet institutional carts. Catalog chips cover wheel diameters 6 in, rubber and steel treads, and capacities 550 lb. Size capacity from the heaviest corner load with shock margin, and keep overall height consistent across the set. Use kingpinless or heavy plate series when shock loads keep shearing kingpin races. These light-duty options cover everyday finished floors and quiet institutional carts without jumping to extreme forged series.
