7/8" Groove Width


    CasterHQ's 4" Inch Swivel Caster with Cast iron V-groove wheels come included with a straight Roller Bearing and Spanner Bushing and are made specifically for use on inverted angle iron tracks or steel tracks for industrial, manufacturing, and material handling applications; they can also be used on flat surfaces, residential, and commercial sliding gates. Our V Groove wheels have a machined bottom groove for better load equalization compared to other brands. Grooved wheels are also commonly used in powder coating applications. Our standard components included in our Grooved Casters include all metal parts for higher temperature applications over 180 Degrees Fahrenheit. These V-Grooved Wheels are precision machined 90 Degrees with a 7/8" Relief groove for standard inverted angle tracks or steel tracks. Zerk / Grease fittings are included on the Swivel Raceway, Hub of the wheel, and the axle giving you 3 points of lubrication for easy maintenance. We offer 4" diameter all the way to 10" diameter Swivel and Rigid Casters and also sell a 12" wheel only if you are in need of that size. Our standard groove casters are competitively priced and fully stocked so we can ship out the same or next business day on all order sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the load capacity of this caster?+

This 5" x 2" Cast Iron V-Groove Swivel Caster – 1,000 lb is rated to 1000 lbs per caster. Size a set by dividing the total load by the number of casters, and for uneven floors assume 3 of 4 casters carry the load. Keep continuous-use loads within about 75-80% of the rating.

What wheel does this caster use?+

This caster runs a Cast Iron wheel with a 2" tread width. Steel / iron wheels give maximum capacity and durability on smooth, hard industrial floors and tolerate heat.

What plate size and bolt pattern does it use?+

This caster uses a top-plate mount with a 4-1/2" x 6-1/4" plate and a 2-7/16" x 4-15/16" slotted to 3-3/8" x 5-1/4" bolt pattern. Measure your existing mounting holes before ordering; if you are replacing casters, match the bolt pattern - most standard patterns interchange across brands.

Is this a swivel or rigid caster, and how does the brake work?+

This is a Swivel caster. Swivel casters rotate 360 degrees for full maneuverability. For most mobile equipment we recommend 2 swivel + 2 rigid, or 4 swivel with at least 2 brakes.

What temperature range can this caster handle?+

Rated for -45°F to 600°F. Operating outside the rated range can reduce wheel life and load capacity, so match it to your environment (wash-down, freezer, oven-adjacent, etc.).

What floors and applications is it best for?+

The Cast Iron wheel performs best on smooth, hard industrial floors. For non-marking or clean-environment needs, ask us about matching tread options.

What is the overall mounted height?+

The overall height (floor to top of plate or stem) is 6-1/2". Account for it when checking equipment clearance, dock height, and ergonomic working height.

How do I order, and what are the terms?+

We accept purchase orders and offer Net 30 on approved accounts, ACH, and all major cards, plus tax-exempt ordering with a resale or exemption certificate. Volume discounts apply automatically; request a bulk quote for large or recurring orders. Stock items carry a 30-day return policy in unused condition (made-to-order items are non-returnable once production starts).
