5″ x 1 1/2″ High Temperature Glass Filled Nylon – Plate Rigid Caster 3

FAQ

Plate Caster Model 3 with 1.25-Inch Wide NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel – MOIST HIGH HEAT WHEEL

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

The NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the Model 3 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 institutional caster with “NP” high heat casters in moist heat environments?

The institutional caster with NP high heat casters and wheels is perfect for moist high heat applications, like steam autoclaves, food processing, and washdown environments, 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 light duty caster for high temperature use?

The NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon 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 NP high temperature wheels come in for the Plate Caster Model 3 industrial casters?

The NP 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 moist high heat applications on smooth floors.

Can the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon Wheel in the institutional caster roll on rough floors as a high temp wheel?

No, the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon 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 NP wheels good for dry heat-only environments?

Nope, the light duty 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 3 in moist high heat settings?

Keep the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon 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 moist high heat settings.

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

No, the glass-filled nylon build of the NP high temperature wheels in the industrial caster is non-marking, ideal for protecting smooth floors in steam autoclaves or food processing environments 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 institutional caster go above 525°F in moist high heat settings?

No, running the NP High Temp Glass-Filled Nylon 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.
