Why the Workhorse name carries weight

Hamilton has built the Workhorse line long enough that it's become a reference point — the caster other casters get compared to in the medium-heavy range. The rigging is forged and proven, the swivel is smooth and durable, and the capacity (to 2,000 lb) covers the bulk of real industrial carts and equipment. It's not the cheapest line or the heaviest; it's the one with the track record.

Workhorse WH wheel options

The WH Series runs Hamilton's full wheel bench — Plastex phenolic, polyurethane compounds, rubber, forged steel — so you can match the floor and duty without leaving the line. Standard plate and stem mounts. Capacity to 2,000 lb makes it the default for heavy carts, work platforms, and light machine bases.
