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.
Plate dimensions shown are overall mounting plate size. When replacing existing casters, select the closest plate size and verify bolt-hole compatibility. BHP = Bolt Hole Pattern, shown under each plate.

We don't just undercut. We re-spec. Sometimes the win is a lower price. Sometimes it's catching the wrong caster before it ships and costs you a line-down. Either way you fulfill your bid, and you buy right. That is why procurement teams send us the quote first.

Can CasterHQ beat a caster quote from Grainger, Uline, or McMaster-Carr?
We'll review any caster or wheel quote and counter with the best price, fit, and lead time we can offer. Grainger and Uline don't price-match, so we'll tell you straight whether we can beat the number or improve the spec for the same money.
What can I upload?
A PDF, screenshot, email, shopping cart, spreadsheet, or just a list of part numbers and quantities. If it's easier, forward the quote you already have to info@casterhq.com and we'll take it from there.
Does CounterQuote only compare price?
No. We check capacity, mounting, wheel material, bearing, brake, environment fit, lead time, and freight. The biggest win is often catching a wrong or underrated caster before it ships, which costs far more than the price difference.
How fast will I hear back?
Within 1 to 3 business hours during business hours, from a real caster engineer. Tell us your need-by date and we'll prioritize accordingly.
Is this only for bulk orders?
No. Bulk, OEM, MRO, and single replacement quotes are all welcome. If you're running a formal multi-bid, this is the fastest way to add a qualified competing quote.
Will sharing my quote obligate me to buy?
No obligation. The review is free. Many buyers use it purely to confirm they're specifying the right caster and to satisfy a multi-bid requirement.
You're holding a quote. You're 60 seconds from a better one.
