Stem Casters are a type of caster wheel that mounts to equipment using a stem rather than a mounting plate and makes them ideal for applications with limited mounting space available. They come in various stem types including threaded, grip ring, expanding rubber, and metal (square/round). Each stem module type is designed to fit different tubing or frame structures and allow for smooth mobility. Stem Casters are most commonly used on carts, furniture, and medical equipment. We offer stem casters with load capacities as small as 250 lbs and as strong as 1,500 lbs, with many pedal and foot brake options available.
We have a stem caster for any need and if you cannot find the right caster, please contact us directly (Call: 800-501-3808 / Email: sales@castercity.com) and we can help you find the perfect stem and caster for your application.
We offer a wide range of caster wheels designed for various use applications, including light-duty furniture, industrial machinery, and medical equipment and more to suit your unique or different mobility needs.
Total locking brakes are a popular choice when safety and stability. We offer brakes on both stem and plate casters. These brakes are designed to lock both the wheel and the swivel at the same time, so once they’re engaged, the caster won’t roll, pivot, or move.
Total locks are widely used in a variety of settings such as warehouses, medical facilities, food service environments, and even heavy duty industrial settings. They’re the perfect caster for mobile equipment that needs to be rolled into place and then stay firmly in position carts, racks, prep tables, or mobile workstations.
If you’re not sure what kind of brake or caster setup works best for your home or business needs, our Caster City sales team is here to help. With decades of experience, we’ll guide you to the right solution for your application and make sure you get exactly what you need for the job.
Stainless steel casters, offered in both plate and stem mounting styles, are built for use in wet, corrosive, or high-temperature environments where durability and cleanliness are critical. These casters are available in both 304 and 316 stainless steel—the former offering strong corrosion resistance for general industrial and food service use, and the latter providing superior protection against harsh chemicals and saltwater, making it ideal for marine and pharmaceutical applications. Designed to handle temperatures up to 450°F when paired with high-temp wheels and raceway seals, these casters perform reliably in extreme heat such as in autoclaves or commercial ovens.
Caster City’s stainless steel casters are built with longevity and performance in mind. Each unit includes a grease fitting in the swivel bearing for easy maintenance, protective seals, and a dust cover to guard internal components from contaminants. Whether you choose 304 for its broad utility or 316 for its maximum corrosion resistance, these casters ensure smooth, low-maintenance mobility in the most demanding conditions.
These industrial pneumatic casters feature air filled pneumatic wheels. These industrial casters are designed for low speed manually moved applications only. Air filled pneumatic wheels provide a cushioned ride, shock absorption and quiet operation. Pneumatic casters are ideally suited for moving fragile or delicate cargo where caster overall height is not critical. Casters with pneumatic wheels are usually the best choice for use outdoors over rough surfaces ( i.e. gravel ) or on grass. The wide footprint on 8″ or larger pneumatic wheels provides stability on gravel and does not sink into lawns.
Pneumatic casters and pneumatic wheels are also popular for indoor use in places such as hospitals, scientific and electronic laboratories, hotels, department stores and TV or movie studios.
Pneumatic wheels with black tires do not mark the floor as long as the wheel is allowed to roll. Changing directions without allowing a swivel caster to turn gradually around, or dragging a black rubber wheel sideways, can mark some floors.

V-groove caster wheels are designed to guide equipment by rolling on inverted angle iron track. Elevated track minimizes problems caused by floor debris. The relief groove at the base of the “V” equalizes the load on each face of the angle. Forged Steel V-groove caster wheels minimize wear of the V-groove sides and are best for frequent operation. When not operating on track, the considerable wheel tread on each side of the V-groove allows for use on smooth floors. It is important that if more than one track is used they are parallel, straight and level. Otherwise V-groove wheels may bind or run up over the track. Tolerance should be within plus or minus 1/64″ every 20 feet. Joints between pieces of track should be smooth and well reinforced. V-groove caster wheels are standard with straight roller bearings, which allow only 1/16″ total end play (side to side movement). It is desirable when loads are great to use tapered bearings, which have thrust as well as radial capacity. The proper adjustment of tapered bearings prohibits end play.
Compression must be applied to properly seat tapered bearings. This is achieved by tightening down against a bearing spacer on each side of the wheel to a maximum looseness of .010. Since tapered bearings prohibit end play, their use requires parallel track. Unless the layout is nearly perfect, it is best to use a single angle iron track for V-groove caster wheels parallel to an elevated flat bed for wheels without a V-groove.
These wheels excel in industries requiring guided movement for heavy loads. In automotive manufacturing, they support tow-line systems, moving vehicle parts along assembly lines with precision. The aerospace sector uses them to transport aircraft components in assembly areas, ensuring stable handling of large parts. Boat and yacht building relies on V-groove wheels to guide hulls and molds along tracks, while observatories use them for moving telescope roofs with exact alignment. Heavy manufacturing and steel mills depend on their durability for transporting oversized machinery or molten metal loads, even under abusive conditions like shock loads or impacts. Food processing facilities utilize them to move baked goods into ovens or guide products along production lines, maintaining cleanliness and efficiency.
Warehouses and distribution centers benefit from V-groove wheels for guided movement of heavy goods, ensuring smooth material flow over long distances. In paint lines, they keep products aligned during painting processes, while assembly tracks across various industries use them for seamless production sequences. Mining operations can employ them for mine carts on tracks, particularly with ductile steel wheels to handle rough conditions, though this is less common. The textile industry may use them for moving machinery or materials on tracks, ensuring controlled motion in production setups. For powered equipment applications in any industry, track alignment is critical—contact us at sales@castercity.com to ensure your setup meets the necessary standards for safety and performance.
Solid Stainless wheels are standard with Stainless Roller Bearings and Spanner Bushings.
V-Groove Gray Iron Wheels perform well only if they are not exposed to any kind of abuse. Abuse includes things like shock loads, impact, poor floors or floor obstructions, overload, and use with mechanically powered equipment. We recommend only Ductile, Forged, or Machined Steel wheels for applications which may involve any kind of abuse. Call us first for a written recommendation before selecting any V-Groove Gray Iron wheel.
