Description
5″ High Temp Glass Filled Nylon Wheel.Plain Bore – No Bearing in the Wheel. Shown with 5″ Wheel. K3 plate caster is made of stamped steel that is zinc plated to resist corrosion. The axle diameter of this rigid caster is ⅜”. This caster’s larger plate size makes it easier to fabricate with, which is it’s primary selling point. This plate caster performs best if you limit the load to no more than 1200 lbs on a set of 4 Model K3 casters.
The Plate Caster Model K3 with the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel is a solid choice for industrial casters, made from glass-filled nylon with additives to resist heat and moisture, built for 3”, 4”, and 5” diameters and holding up to 300 lbs per wheel at room temperature on smooth floors in moist high heat spots like steam autoclaves, food processing, and washdown areas. This hard, non-marking heat caster wheel, NSF Listed, RoHS Compliant, and Food Service Approved, 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, mounted on a Model K3 plate caster with a 3 1/8” x 4 1/8” top plate, 2 3/8” x 3 3/8” slotted bolt holes (to 1 3/4” x 2 15/16”), and 3/8” mounting bolts, giving reliable performance in moist high heat settings when shielded from direct heat sources like flames.
Made for moist high heat, these “NP” high temperature casters and wheels do great in wet heat settings with their cost-effective, food-safe design for model K3 uses. The non-marking surface and high temp durability make these industrial casters a smart pick for food processing or autoclave setups, keeping smooth rolling and floor protection across different SKU setups while meeting NSF and RoHS standards for safe, eco-friendly use in tough high heat jobs.
FAQ
Plate Caster Model K3 with NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel
What material are “NP” high temperature wheels made from in the Plate Caster Model K3 for industrial casters?
The NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the Model K3 industrial caster is made from glass-filled nylon with additives to resist heat and moisture, creating a hard, non-marking high temperature wheel for smooth rolling in moist high heat settings.
What applications are best for the light duty caster with “NP” high heat casters in moist heat environments?
The light duty caster with NP high heat casters and wheels is perfect for moist high heat applications, like steam autoclaves, food processing, and washdown areas, where industrial casters move loads on smooth floors in hot, wet zones.
What’s the temperature limit for the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the institutional caster for high temperature use?
The NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the institutional caster takes 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 NP high temperature wheels come in for the Plate Caster Model K3 industrial casters?
The NP high temperature wheels in the Model K3 industrial casters come in 3”, 4”, and 5” diameters, offering options for heavy duty casters in moist high heat applications on smooth floors.
Can the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the light duty caster roll on rough floors as a high temp wheel?
No, the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the light duty caster is built for smooth floor surfaces only—rough floors or obstructions will damage these industrial casters and shorten their life.
Are the industrial casters with NP wheels good for dry heat-only environments?
Nope, the industrial casters with NP wheels are made for moist high heat like steam autoclaves—for dry high heat applications, pick our “TP” High Temp Phenolic high temperature wheels instead.
How do I protect the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the Plate Caster Model K3 in moist high heat settings?
Keep the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the Model K3 high temperature caster shielded from direct heat sources, like flames or radiant heat, to prevent damage and maintain performance in moist high heat settings.
Do the NP high temperature wheels in the institutional caster leave marks on floors in moist high heat environments?
No, the glass-filled nylon build of the NP high temperature wheels in the institutional caster is non-marking, ideal for protecting smooth floors in steam autoclaves or food processing spots with moist high heat.
Why are the heavy duty casters with NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheels cost-effective for moist high heat use?
The heavy duty casters with NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheels deliver durable, high temperature performance in moist heat at a lower cost than other high temperature casters, making them a smart choice for wet high heat applications without a big price tag.
Can the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the industrial caster go above 525°F in moist high heat settings?
No, running the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the industrial 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.
