Plate Caster Model 9 Rigid Caster is the matching plate caster for the Model 9 Swivel Caster.  When manually moving equipment supported by 4 swivel casters it can be difficult to control the direction you are pushing or pulling.  Rigid casters assist in controlling equipment being moved in straight line travel.  Equipment with rigid casters installed can not move sideways.  Rigid Casters are usually installed at the opposite end of the push handle.  Leg thickness is 1/4”.  The axle diameter is 1/2” long and is designed to use wheels with a hub width of 2 7/16”.  This caster is constructed from stamped steel. 

Rigid Casters can carry more weight than swivel casters because they do not have an offset.  Nevertheless, on our website both rigid casters and matching swivel casters are shown with the same capacity.  Other mounting plate sizes and wheel bearing types are available on request.

This caster is available in Stainless Steel Model 9.  It is constructed from 304 Stainless Steel.  This is an excellent caster for wet or corrosive applications if your total weight exceeds 1000lbs.   comes with the same large selection of wheels, some of which are also NSF and ROHS compliant.
