A stainless steel caster uses stainless steel hardware throughout (yoke, plate, fasteners) to resist corrosion, rust, and chemical exposure — the standard choice for food processing, pharmaceutical, medical, and washdown environments.
In the catalog, stainless steel casters are rated roughly 150 to 4,000 lbs, with rubber, nylon, and polyurethane wheel options — the corrosion resistance is in the hardware, and wheel material is chosen separately based on the application.
Washdown environments, food processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and any setting with regular moisture, chemical exposure, or sanitization requirements.
Using standard zinc-plated hardware in a washdown environment. It corrodes fast under regular cleaning cycles — stainless steel construction is worth the added cost in these settings.

Is stainless steel caster construction the same as stainless wheel material?
No — stainless steel describes the hardware (yoke, plate); the wheel material (rubber, nylon, polyurethane) is a separate choice.
Do stainless steel casters cost more?
Yes, generally — but they last far longer in corrosive or washdown environments than standard-finish hardware.
