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 R-52HK-8HSB Hamilton High Heat Rigid Caster is a breakthrough in high-temperature caster technology. Designed with an attention to detail, it represents Hamilton's commitment to delivering superior performance without compromising on durability.
At the core of the R-52HK-8HSB caster lies its 8" x 2" Stainless Steel Wheel. The stainless steel ensures resistance to corrosion, especially in environments that demand high heat resilience. Additionally, the wheel's design ensures a perfect balance between weight distribution and agility.
With a rating to handle temperatures up to 750°F, this caster stands out as a preferred choice for industries and setups that work under extreme heat conditions. Be it aerospace or metallurgy; its resistance ensures that operations continue seamlessly.
The inclusion of 1/2" High Heat Stainless Steel Shielded Precision Ball Bearings ensures that despite the demanding conditions, the movement remains smooth. The precision bearings minimize friction, thereby reducing wear and extending the life of the caster.
Over the years, Hamilton has established itself as a trusted name in caster technology. With the R-52HK-8HSB, you are not just investing in a product but in Hamilton's legacy of quality, innovation, and customer support.
The R-52HK-8HSB Hamilton High Heat Rigid Caster is more than just a caster; it's a commitment to efficiency, durability, and superior performance. For those who refuse to compromise, it's the obvious choice.
This Hamilton R-52HK-8HSB 8" x 2" Stainless Rigid Caster – 750°F is rated to 960 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 Metal wheel with a 2" tread width. This wheel material balances load capacity, rolling ease, and floor protection for the intended application.
This caster uses a top-plate mount with a 4" x 4-1/2" plate. 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 Rigid caster. Rigid casters track straight for directional stability. For most mobile equipment we recommend 2 swivel + 2 rigid, or 4 swivel with at least 2 brakes.
Rated for Up to 750°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 Metal wheel performs best on smooth concrete and finished warehouse 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 9-1/2". 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).
