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 2-1/2 x 3-5/8 plate pattern suit finished floors and quiet institutional carts. Typical builds show wheel diameters 1-3/4 in, rubber, steel, and stainless treads, and capacities 150 lb. Replace worn corners in matched sets when possible so the cart tracks straight under load. Match bolt-hole spacing or stem diameter to the frame before you standardize a fleet. These light-duty options cover everyday finished floors and quiet institutional carts without jumping to extreme forged series.
