Description
Caster City’s Economy Stainless Steel Model K3 Stem Caster delivers corrosion-resistant swivel performance in washdown environments at a lower cost than the standard stainless Model 3. Constructed from 304 stainless stamped steel, this stem caster inserts into equipment socket holes for fast installation without drilling or bolting. Threaded, grip ring, and expanding adapter stems are available. The swivel section features two rows of ball bearings on polished smooth raceways with an open design that eliminates the dust cap and grease fitting so water drains through the swivel instead of collecting. The swivel is held together by a 1/2″ diameter rivet with a 3/8″ diameter axle for wheel mounting. Capacity up to 350 lbs per caster depending on wheel and stem; limit to 1,000 lbs on a set of 4. NSF listed and RoHS compliant for bakery racks, catering equipment, and sanitary processing areas.
High Temperature Phenolic caster wheels make an excellent, low cost choice for supporting loads as they roll into and out of an oven. The High Temperature Phenolic caster wheel is best suited for dry heat applications such as powder coating, dry heat bakery ovens, dry heat autoclaves and more. High Temperature Phenolic wheels are a hard composition caster wheel that is non-marking and made from mostly glass fibers. The temperature range of these high temperature caster wheels is up to 475°F for continuous use, and 525°F for intermittent use. If used above 475°F for more than 30 minutes continuous operation it will reduce the life of the wheel. These wheels have a hard surface and should be used on smooth floor surfaces. It is always best to shield High Temperature Wheels from a direct heat intake source. Caster City can furnish high temperature phenolic wheels in either a plain bore, with a straight roller bearing, or with an oilite bronze bearing sleeve for high temperature applications. Ideal for powder coating ovens, industrial bakeries, and dry heat autoclave applications.
