Description
The Plate Caster Model G15 with PY Polyurethane on Iron Wheel is built for industrial applications needing reliable performance under heavy loads. It uses a kingpinless design with a precision-machined swivel bearing for rotation with less vibration, suitable for both manually moved and mechanically powered equipment. Made from zinc-plated steel for rust resistance, it has lubrication fittings for all moveable parts, a 1/2” diameter axle with a locking nut, and hot-forged construction with welded legs, supporting up to 1500 lbs per caster, with a mounting plate of 4″ x 4-1/2″ (bolt hole pattern 2-5/8″ x 3-5/8″ to 3″ x 3″), for use in environments like warehouses and manufacturing plants.
This caster has a 2” or 3” wide PY Polyurethane Wheel with a liquid cast polyurethane tire chemically bonded to an iron center, with a Shore A 90-95 durometer and temperature range of -20°F to 180°F. It comes with a standard roller bearing or optional sealed precision ball bearings, fits a 1/2” axle bolt, and offers higher capacity than a same-sized rubber wheel, rolling easier under load while protecting floors better than metal wheels. The bonding agent can be affected by chemicals, impact, overloading, or heat buildup, so it’s not suited for harsh impacts, continuous use, or prolonged standing loads.
The Model G15 is used in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers for heavy-duty mobility and floor protection, offering a broad selection of 2” wide wheels like Nylon, Polyolefin, and TPR Rubber, often with higher load ratings than the Model 9. An optional larger swivel radius (Long Lead) for 6” and 8” wheel diameters reduces shimmy vibration and eases direction changes. Available online at Caster City with a fast lead time, this caster is used for industrial applications; contact Caster City at 800-501-3808 for ordering assistance.
