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 Medium Heavy Duty 35 Series - 5" x 2" Phenolic Swivel Caster is designed to provide exceptional performance and durability for industrial, commercial, and warehouse applications. With a robust 1000 lb capacity per caster, this product ensures reliable movement even under heavy loads, making it an ideal solution for material handling and high-traffic environments. The caster’s design includes a high-quality phenolic wheel that resists wear and corrosion, ensuring a long service life in demanding conditions.
One of the standout features of this caster is its swivel caster type, which allows for superior maneuverability. This makes it easy to change directions in tight spaces, which is critical in environments like factories, warehouses, and material handling applications where quick turns are needed. The caster’s 4” turning radius further improves operational efficiency, providing ease of navigation in constrained areas.
For optimal performance, the caster comes with a variety of bearing options, including roller bearings, Q34 precision ball bearings, and both ½” and ¾” Delrin bearings. These options enable you to select the best bearing type based on the demands of your application, whether you require smooth rolling with minimal friction or the strength needed to handle heavy loads over time.
The caster’s plate size (4-½” x 6-¼”) ensures a secure and stable mounting, adding another layer of durability to the overall design. With an overall height (OAH) of 6-1/2”, the caster provides sufficient clearance for a wide range of heavy-duty equipment, ensuring smooth operation while handling substantial weight.
Designed for tough environments, the caster's corrosion-resistant construction ensures its durability, even when exposed to harsh conditions. Whether in warehouses, manufacturing plants, or outdoor settings, this caster will stand up to wear and tear, providing consistent performance day in and day out.
To simplify installation, the caster features a wide bolt pattern (2-7/16” x 4-15/16” to 3-⅜” x 5-¼”), allowing for compatibility with a range of mounting configurations. This versatility makes the Durastar Medium Heavy Duty 35 Series caster easy to install and fit into your existing systems without the need for additional modifications.
Overall, the Durastar Medium Heavy Duty 35 Series 5" x 2" Phenolic Swivel Caster is engineered to deliver reliable, long-lasting performance for heavy-duty applications. It is built to handle the toughest environments while offering flexibility through various bearing options and an easy-to-install design. Whether you're handling heavy equipment, navigating tight corners, or dealing with high-traffic areas, this caster is the ideal solution to meet your business needs.
This 5" x 2" Phenolic Swivel Caster – 1000 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.
This caster runs a Phenolic wheel with a 2" tread width. Phenolic carries high loads on smooth, hard floors and tolerates heat, but transmits more shock than an elastomer tread.
This caster uses a top-plate mount and a 2-7/16" x 4-15/16" bolt pattern. Measure your existing mounting holes before ordering; if you are replacing casters, match the bolt pattern - most standard patterns interchange across brands.
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 Up to 250°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.).
The Phenolic wheel performs best on smooth, hard industrial floors. For non-marking or clean-environment needs, ask us about matching tread options.
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.
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).
