Description

8″ Polyolefin ( Black ) Wheel. Size shown in photo is 6 x 2. Stainless Steel rigid Caster Model G15 is made of 304 stainless using a stamped steel construction and is excellent for corrosive applications. The mounting plate and legs of the caster are ¼” thick 304 stainless steel. This caster is ROHS and NSF compliant. The diameter of the axle bolt in this stainless steel rigid caster is 1/2”. Rigid casters are most commonly selected when price is a factor, or if you need to travel in a straight line over long distances. This Stainless steel plate caster performs best if you limit the load to no more than 1200 lbs per rigid caster.

The PB Polyolefin Wheel in the Stainless Steel Kingpinless Plate Caster Model SS-G15 is a great choice for institutional needs in settings like pharmaceutical labs, food processing plants, and wet environments where lightweight, non-marking mobility and corrosion resistance are essential. This 2-inch wide wheel, available in 4”, 5”, 6”, and 8” diameters, holds up to 300 lbs per wheel at room temperature, featuring a one-piece solid sanitary design injection-molded from a blend of thermoplastic polymers. It’s resistant to most commonly encountered liquids, making it ideal for wet or mildly corrosive applications, and it won’t develop flat spots if parked for long periods, though it has a lower capacity and more limited temperature range than nylon wheels. The wheel can come with either a flat or crowned tread face and offers bearing options like plain bore, sealed ball bearings, or roller bearings for smooth rolling, ensuring excellent floor protection and non-conductive properties in applications like mobile carts or equipment in washdown areas.

The stainless steel kingpinless caster assembly, made from 304 stainless steel with ¼” thick legs welded to a precision machined swivel bearing, ensures easier swivel rotation, reduced vibration, and long trouble-free performance for both manually moved and mechanically powered equipment, with lubrication fittings for all movable parts and a larger swivel radius on 6” and 8” wheels to reduce shimmy vibration and ease directional changes. It features a top plate size of 4” x 4½” and bolt hole spacing of 2-5/8” x 3-5/8” to 3” x 3”, with brake options including the Top Lock Brake (TB), Universal Bolt-On Face Contact Brake (UFCB), Heavy Duty Weld-On Face Contact Brake (HDFCB), and both weld-on and bolt-on swivel locks for directional control.

Polyolefin Caster Wheels from Caster City

Polyolefin Caster Wheels are injection molded from a blend of thermoplastic polymers, forming a one-piece solid sanitary design that prioritizes durability and hygiene. These wheels are available with a plain bore, precision sealed ball bearings, roller bearings, or Delrin bearings for smooth operation across various light to medium-duty applications. As a cost-effective and lightweight option, polyolefin wheels are hard, non-marking, and non-conductive, offering superior resistance to water, chemicals, solvents, acids, grease, oils, and gasoline. Their unique composition ensures excellent abrasion resistance and impact absorption, making them a reliable choice for environments where sanitation and floor protection are essential.

Polyolefin Caster Wheels are particularly suited for wet and corrosive applications due to their outstanding resistance to most commonly encountered liquids, ensuring long-lasting performance. Their slightly crowned tread enhances rollability and maneuverability, and they do not develop flat spots when parked for extended periods. With a hardness of 65–70 Shore D, these wheels provide floor protection, low noise, and easy cleaning, while remaining impervious to sterilization processes. However, they can become brittle in cold, dry environments like refrigerated storerooms and should not be used in freezers or heat applications above 180°F during intermittent usage, such as rack washers.

Ideal for bakeries, food processing, dairies, meat packaging, laundries, supermarkets, warehouses, manufacturing plants, cleanrooms, medical facilities, and offices, these wheels excel where chemical resistance and non-marking performance are critical. Capable of handling impacts and loads up to 900 lbs per wheel depending on size, they offer economical mobility in harsh conditions. For reliable, sanitary, and floor-friendly caster solutions tailored to your needs, contact Caster City to explore custom configurations of our durable Polyolefin Caster Wheels.
