8" x 2" Spring Loaded Swivel Caster - Polyurethane on Aluminum Wheel - 2,000 lbs Capacity

8 Inch Spring Loaded Casters - Reduce Vibrations, Absorb Shock, Reduce Rolling Noise, Increase Productivity!


This 8" x 2" Chrome Plated Spring Loaded Caster can effectively absorb shock and protect products from damaging vibrations on rough or uneven floor conditions. The solid polyurethane spring, unlike the common metal spring, resists corrosion and elastic fatigue. The Swivel rig uses Thrust Bearings to replace regular ball bearings, which can support high axial force and provide a ultra smooth raceway operation making it much easier to manually move the Carts or Equipment. Chrome plating increases the surface hardness and durability while reducing the repair and maintenance costs. The C48 spring loaded casters are recommended for the automotive industry, medical equipment, computer equipment or any other shock sensitive load. This is our Ergonomic Spring Loaded Caster which is designed to reduce the push/pull force to manually move your cart or equipment which helps reduce operator back strain as well as reducing worker comp claims.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the load capacity of this caster?+

This 8" x 2" Polyurethane Aluminum Swivel Spring Loaded Caster – 2000 lb is rated to 2000 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 Solid Polyurethane wheel with a 2" tread width. Polyurethane protects finished floors, rolls quietly, and resists most chemicals while carrying heavy loads.

What plate size and bolt pattern does it use?+

This caster uses a top-plate mount with a 4" x 4-1/2" plate and a 2-5/8" x 3-5/8" 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 Up to 180°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 Solid Polyurethane wheel performs best on smooth to semi-smooth floors including sealed concrete, tile, and epoxy. For non-marking or clean-environment needs, ask us about matching tread options.

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).
