All measurements indicate the wheel diameter by the tread width.
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.

The Durastar Directional Lock Kit is a specialized solution developed for use with 8" wheels in the 34 Series caster line. Designed with precision and durability in mind, this lock kit transforms your swivel caster into a fixed-direction mechanism, enabling smooth and controlled linear movement. This is especially beneficial in settings where equipment must travel in straight lines without veering off course—such as manufacturing floors, warehouse aisles, or hospital corridors.
By securing the swivel section of the caster in a fixed position, the directional lock minimizes drift, enhances tracking, and significantly reduces the effort required by operators to guide equipment. The result is not only improved efficiency, but also reduced physical strain and a safer working environment.
Manufactured using high-strength materials, the lock kit is built to endure the demands of heavy-duty use in industrial and commercial environments. It’s an excellent upgrade for users looking to increase performance and reliability without replacing their entire caster system. Whether you're managing medical carts, warehouse trolleys, or production equipment, this component offers a cost-effective way to enhance maneuverability and operational control.
Easy to install with minimal tools required, this kit is a user-friendly solution that adds significant value. Backed by Durastar’s reputation for quality and innovation, this directional lock kit is a trusted enhancement to any mobility system using the 34 Series caster assembly.
Summary: The Durastar Directional Lock Kit for 8" wheels in the 34 Series improves straight-line motion, enhances safety, and streamlines daily operations. With simple installation and durable construction, it’s the smart choice for professionals who demand high-performance mobility solutions.
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.
Rated for -20°F 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.).
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).
