4″ High Temp Phenolic/Fiberglass Wheel. Shown in photo with 5″ wheels. Stainless Steel Plate Caster Model K3A is considered our “cheap” line of stainless steel casters. Stainless steel casters are perfect for use in a corrosive or wet settings. This is a light duty caster that has been built for hand powered use only. This plate caster is capable of up to 300lbs of weight per caster with the right wheel selected. The swivel bearing is constructed of a double ball raceway which enables the caster to swivel more easily and change directions. The rigid and swivel caster are constructed from stamped 304 stainless steel. The center pin of the swivel caster is a 1/2” stainless steel rivet. The axle diameter is a 3/8” bolt with a latching nut. You can order an stainless steel lube axle which offers a lubricated fitting in the bolt head to grease the wheel. This stainless steel caster also has a mirror finish available upon request. You can get a large selection of wheels. They are NSF and ROHS compliant. The mounting plate is 2 3/8” x 3 5/8” and the hole pattern is slotted to: 1 3/4” x 2 7/8” – 3” and is designed to use a mounting bolt size of 5/16”. The reason this caster is considered “economy” is lacks the metal shield covering the swivel bearing. K3A Casters also does not come with a lubricated fitting in the swivel bearing. These features are not necessarily negative depending on the application. The shield over the swivel bearing can retain water from a wash down which can produce filthy conditions, depending on the use. This caster is ideal for washdown applications such as an animal lab or butcher table.

The TP High Temp Phenolic Wheel in the Stainless Steel Caster Model K3 is a great pick for light industrial casters, crafted from fiberglass, phenol resin, and additives to resist heat, made for 3”, 4”, and 5” diameters (1.25” wide) and holding up to 300 lbs per wheel at room temperature on smooth floors in dry high heat spots like powder coating lines, bakery ovens, and dry heat autoclaves. This hard, non-marking high heat caster wheel, NSF Listed and ROHS Compliant, takes continuous operation up to 475°F and 525°F for 30 minutes with a plain bore and spanner bushing for a 3/8” axle, giving reliable performance in high temp dry heat settings when shielded from direct heat sources like flames, ideal for stainless steel casters needing a high temperature wheel for tough jobs.
Built for dry high heat only, these “TP” high temperature casters and wheels don’t work in moist heat spots like steam autoclaves but shine in dry heat settings with their cost-effective, food-safe design, keeping smooth rolling and floor protection in bakery or powder coating setups for institutional applications like animal labs or butcher tables. The non-marking surface and high temp durability make these stainless steel casters a smart choice for dry high heat environments, meeting NSF and ROHS standards for safe, eco-friendly use on smooth floors in extreme heat.
