Description

Plate Caster Model 3A is plated in zinc and is constructed from stamped steel. This plate caster uses a ⅜” diameter axle and the swivel caster raceway is held together by a ½” diameter rivet.  Plate Caster Model 3A  caster brackets have two rows of ball bearings rotating on raceways for smoother swiveling.  There is a solid cover over the swivel raceways to shield them from dirt and dust. This plate caster performs best if you limit the load to no more than 1200 lbs on a set of 4 Model 3A casters.

Nylon caster wheels are an excellent choice for supporting heavy loads without using a metal wheel since they can not develop a flat spot.  Nylon caster wheels are capable of supporting a capacity comparable to most metal wheels while weighing very little and without the risk of damaging your floors.This solid nylon caster wheel can resist chemicals, bases, steam, salt, brine, acid, blood, oils, greases. Nylon is capable of resisting shocks and impact loads.  This industrial caster wheel comes in 1-¼” wide and 2” wide, and comes in diameters ranging from 3” to 8”, depending on the width selected.  This caster wheel comes with plain bore, precision sealed ball bearings, or roller bearings as well as coming in stainless steel ball bearings or stainless steel roller bearings.

Nylon Wheels from Caster City

Caster City’s Nylon Caster Wheels, injection molded from solid nylon 6, are an outstanding choice for supporting heavy loads without relying on metal wheels, delivering high capacity comparable to most metal wheels while remaining lightweight and floor-friendly. Available in 1-¼” or 2” tread widths and diameters ranging from 3” to 8”, these wheels are 100% washable, steam cleanable, and impervious to water, with exceptional resistance to organic solvents, chemicals, acids, bases, greases, oils, blood, salt, brine, and cleaning solutions. Their non-marking, hard 75D durometer tread with a slight crown ensures smooth rolling, making them ideal for wet environments like food processing and packaging plants where hygiene and chemical resistance are paramount.

These nylon industrial caster wheels are engineered for durability, offering excellent resistance to shocks and impact loads, along with superior abrasion resistance and toughness. They do not develop flat spots, even under prolonged static loads, ensuring reliable performance in demanding applications. The wheels absorb moisture, making them well-suited for wet environments without compromising structural integrity. With versatile bearing options, including plain bore, precision sealed ball bearings, roller bearings, stainless steel ball bearings, stainless steel roller bearings, or Delrin bearings, these wheels can be customized for optimal performance across various industrial settings.

Nylon Caster Wheels provide an ideal combination of high load capacity, chemical resistance, and floor protection, making them a top choice for industries such as manufacturing, food processing, and environments exposed to corrosive substances. Their ability to handle heavy loads, impacts, and harsh conditions while remaining lightweight and easy to maneuver distinguishes them as a versatile solution.
