Fixed Caster Wheels Heavy Duty

A: This fixed caster wheel has a load capacity of 400 kg per caster. For heavy equipment or workbenches with four casters, the total capacity is 1,600 kg. However, please note that the effective load per caster should be calculated as Total Load ÷ 3 (allowing for uneven weight distribution) rather than Total Load ÷ 4.

A: A rigid caster (featured here) rolls only in a straight line - providing stable, controlled movement and eliminating unwanted swiveling. A swivel caster rotates 360° - offering maneuverability and steering capability. For heavy equipment applications, rigid casters are typically paired with swivel casters: swivel casters on the front for steering, rigid casters on the rear for tracking and stability. This combination provides both maneuverability and directional control.

A: This heavy duty fixed caster series is available with seven wheel material options: Nylon - standard option offering superior impact resistance and low rolling resistance; PU - excellent wear resistance and floor protection; TPR - quiet, non-marking operation; PP - lightweight and chemical-resistant; Cast Iron - extreme durability for the heaviest loads; PU on Iron - combines PU tread with cast iron core; Rubber on Cast Iron - superior shock absorption with iron core strength. Choose based on your load, floor type, and application requirements.

A: Roller Bearings use cylindrical rollers to handle heavier radial loads, making them ideal for high-load, slow-speed applications where durability is the priority - recommended for heavy equipment and machinery. Double Ball Bearings use two rows of balls to handle both radial and moderate thrust loads, providing smoother rolling with less friction - ideal for applications requiring frequent movement and maneuverability. Choose based on your load, speed, and maneuverability requirements.

A: Brake options are available upon request. While the standard model (818R1ZDX805N) is a rigid caster without brake, we offer brake-equipped versions for this caster series - both side brake (locks wheel only) and total lock brake (locks wheel and swivel). For rigid casters, a wheel brake is typically recommended for securing straight-line positioning. If you require locking functionality, please contact our sales team to specify your brake requirements.

A: This heavy duty fixed caster is suitable for: Heavy equipment - industrial machinery and large equipment; Heavy workbenches - heavy-duty workshop workbenches; Industrial carts - heavy-duty platform trucks and material handling carts (rear position); Moving heavy loads - equipment relocation and positioning; Factory machinery - production line equipment and machine stands.

A: This caster uses top plate mounting for secure attachment. The robust top plate design ensures stable load distribution and reliable performance under heavy loads. Please contact our sales team for detailed plate dimension specifications and bolt hole patterns to confirm compatibility with your equipment.

A: No. This heavy duty fixed caster features a solid nylon wheel - it is not a pneumatic (air-filled) caster. Solid nylon wheels offer several advantages over pneumatic casters for industrial applications: No maintenance - no need to check or maintain air pressure; No punctures - immune to flats and leaks; Longer service life - more durable and longer-lasting; Higher load capacity - solid wheels support heavier loads than pneumatic wheels of similar size. For applications requiring pneumatic rigid casters, please contact our sales team for alternative product recommendations.

A: The 245mm load height provides: Adequate clearance - sufficient space for equipment base and floor clearance; Stability - appropriate center of gravity for equipment stability; Ergonomic handling - comfortable height for maneuvering heavy loads; Floor clearance - enough clearance for floor irregularities without bottoming out.

A: Xingteng holds ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management certification, TUV Product Certification for multiple product series, and RoHS 2.0 environmental compliance. We are also a recognized AA-level "Contract-Honoring and Credit-Worthy Enterprise" in Zhejiang Province.

A: Yes. With over 30 years of manufacturing experience and in-house engineering capabilities, we offer custom fixed caster solutions including: special wheel materials, custom mounting plates, specific load capacities, brake configurations, and application-specific designs. Contact our sales team to discuss your requirements.

A: Standard lead time is typically 20-45 days depending on order quantity, wheel material selection, bearing configuration, and size specification. Brake-equipped versions may require additional lead time. For urgent requirements, please contact our sales team for expedited options. Large-volume orders may require additional lead time - we will confirm exact timing at the time of order placement.
