FAQ

Plate Caster Model 3 with 1.25-Inch Wide TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel

What material are “TP” high temperature wheels made from in the Plate Caster Model 3 for industrial casters?

The TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel in the Model 3 industrial caster is made from fiberglass, phenol resin, and additives to resist heat, creating a hard, non-marking high temperature wheel for smooth rolling in high temp dry heat settings.

What applications are best for the institutional caster with “TP” high heat casters in dry heat environments?

The institutional caster with TP high heat casters and wheels is perfect for dry high heat applications, like powder coating, dry heat bakery ovens, and dry heat autoclaves, where industrial casters move loads on smooth floors in hot zones.

What’s the temperature limit for the TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel in the light duty caster for high temperature use?

The TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel in the light duty caster handles continuous operation up to 475°F and can hit 525°F for 30 minutes max—cool it to room temperature after high heat use to keep its service life strong.

What sizes do the TP high temperature wheels come in for the Plate Caster Model 3 industrial casters?

The TP high temperature wheels in the Model 3 industrial casters come in 3”, 4”, and 5” diameters (1.25” wide), offering options for heavy duty casters in dry high heat applications on smooth floors.

Can the TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel in the institutional caster roll on rough floors as a high temp wheel?

No, the TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel in the institutional caster is built for smooth floor surfaces only—rough floors or obstructions will damage these industrial casters and shorten their life.

Are the light duty casters with TP wheels good for moist heat environments?

Nope, the light duty casters with TP wheels are made for dry high heat only and will fail in moist heat like steam autoclaves—for moist heat, pick our “NP” Glass-Filled Nylon high temperature wheels.

How do I protect the TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel in the Plate Caster Model 3 in high temp dry heat settings?

Keep the TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel in the Model 3 high temperature caster shielded from direct heat sources, like flames or radiant heat, to prevent damage and maintain performance in high temp dry heat settings.

Do the TP high temperature wheels in the industrial caster leave marks on floors in high heat environments?

No, the fiberglass, phenol resin, and additive build of the TP high temperature wheels in the industrial caster is non-marking, ideal for protecting smooth floors in dry heat autoclaves or powder coating lines.

Why are the heavy duty casters with TP High Temp Phenolic Wheels cost-effective for high temp use?

The heavy duty casters with TP High Temp Phenolic Wheels deliver durable, high temperature performance at a lower cost than other high temperature casters, making them a smart choice for dry high heat applications without a big price tag.

Can the TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel in the institutional caster go above 525°F in high temp dry heat settings?

No, running the TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel in the institutional caster above 475°F for more than 30 minutes or past 525°F will cut its service life—always let it cool down after high heat exposure.
