An Introduction to Hamilton's Superior Engineering

Hamilton's S-WHS-4HNY is not just another swivel caster. It epitomizes precision engineering with an emphasis on durability, high-temperature resistance, and unparalleled performance. Designed for the rigorous demands of high-temperature environments, this caster embodies the Hamilton promise of quality and reliability.

The Unbeatable 4" x 2" Scorcher Wheel

At the heart of the S-WHS-4HNY lies the 4" x 2" Scorcher Wheel. Made with premium materials, this wheel promises not just smooth operations but also durability that withstands the test of time, especially in high-temperature scenarios. Its specialized construction ensures minimal wear and tear, even under intensive use.

Built for the Heat: 475°F Resistance

Few casters can claim compatibility with high-temperature environments. The S-WHS-4HNY stands out with its resistance of up to 475°F. Whether it's a foundry, bakery, or any other high-temperature workspace, trust this caster to deliver without compromise.

1/2" Roller Bearing: The Backbone of Performance

The true strength of any caster lies in its bearings. Our 1/2" Roller Bearing is lubricated with High Heat Grease, ensuring fluid motion and reduced friction, even under high heat conditions. This synergy guarantees a longer lifespan and consistent performance.

Choosing Hamilton means choosing a legacy of excellence. Our dedication to innovation, backed by robust customer support, makes the S-WHS-4HNY Swivel Caster a preferred choice for professionals seeking the best in the industry. Trust Hamilton, where quality meets performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the load capacity of this caster?+

This Hamilton S-WHS-4HNY 4" x 2" Scorcher Swivel Stainless Caster – 800 lb is rated to 800 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 Nylon wheel with a 2" tread width. Nylon resists chemicals and moisture and carries high loads, which suits washdown and wet environments.

What plate size and bolt pattern does it use?+

This caster uses a top-plate mount with a 4" x 5" plate and a 2-5/8" x 3-5/8" and 3" x 3" 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 475°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 Nylon wheel performs best on smooth, hard industrial floors. For non-marking or clean-environment needs, ask us about matching tread options.

What is the overall mounted height?+

The overall height (floor to top of plate or stem) is 5-5/8". Account for it when checking equipment clearance, dock height, and ergonomic working height.

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).
