Where the 272CA04101S fits in your application

  • Foundry tooling and pattern carts
  • AGV drive and trailing positions
  • Steel mill maintenance carts
  • Heavy motor bases and generator platforms
  • Aerospace tooling fixtures (≥1,500 lb)
  • MRO carts on rough concrete

Engineer Tip — Jordan Wilson

I spec Albion HD Raceway when the customer needs heavy capacity with hardened raceways that survive shock loading. The 272CA04101S earns its place when rough concrete and shock loading are the controlling spec. Pair 4" on the steered axle with a matching rigid version on the trailing axle for true four-position cart kinematics. If your floor has expansion joints over 1/2" wide, step up to a larger wheel diameter.

FAQs

What does the Albion part number 272CA04101S mean?

Albion encodes its part numbers by series, wheel material, wheel diameter, plate size, bearing type, and mount style. The 272CA04101S is decoded by your CasterHQ engineer at order time — call us at 844-439-4335 for a full breakdown.

What is the load capacity of the 272CA04101S?

1200 lbs per caster dynamic. On a 4-caster cart with even load distribution and a 1.3x safety factor for moving loads, that yields the rated working capacity per cart.

Will the 272CA04101S work on rough concrete?

Yes for cast iron and steel wheels. 4" diameter rolls over expansion joints and seams cleanly. For polished or epoxy floors, ask us about poly-on-iron or thermoplastic options.

Is the 272CA04101S made in the USA?

Albion's industrial casters are USA-manufactured. We provide BAA/TAA-compliant Country-of-Origin documentation on request for federal procurement, typical turnaround under 24 hours.

What is the lead time?
