FAQ

Stainless Steel Kingpinless Plate Caster Model G15 with 2-Inch Wide Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel

What material is the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel made from in the Stainless Steel Kingpinless Plate Caster Model G15?

The Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the Model G15 industrial kingpinless caster has liquid cast polyurethane chemically bonded to a very strong glass-reinforced nylon center, with a durometer of 90-95 Shore A for smooth, quiet rolling in demanding settings.

What applications are best for the industrial kingpinless caster with Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheels in labs and hospitals?

The industrial kingpinless caster with Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheels is perfect for labs, hospitals, and food processing plants in institutional settings, particularly in sanitary applications where a plate mount caster moves equipment like carts and tables on smooth floors in wet washdown environments, ensuring compliance with NSF and ROHS standards.

What bearing types come with the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the heavy-duty industrial caster?

The Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the heavy-duty industrial caster can come equipped with Delrin bearings, stainless steel precision sealed ball bearings, or stainless steel needle roller bearings, ensuring smooth rolling in institutional applications on smooth floors.

Can the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the heavy-duty industrial caster roll on rough floors?

No, the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the heavy-duty industrial caster is built for smooth floor surfaces only—rough floors or obstructions will damage these stainless steel casters and shorten their life.

Are the stainless steel casters with Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheels good for standing loads?

The stainless steel casters with Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheels are more resistant to flat-spotting than standard polyurethanes, but it’s still best not to exceed 70% of the rated capacity for applications parked for prolonged periods to ensure longevity.

How do I protect the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the Stainless Steel Kingpinless Plate Caster Model G15 from damage?

Keep the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the Model G15 industrial kingpinless caster free from shock, overloading, abuse, obstructions, poor floors, rack washers, and exposure to some chemicals, impact, or heat buildup from continuous usage, which can weaken the bonding agent holding the tire to its nylon center and affect the stainless steel construction’s performance.

Do the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheels in the heavy-duty industrial caster leave marks on floors in institutional settings?

No, the non-marking injection molded polyurethane tire build of the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheels in the heavy-duty industrial caster is ideal for protecting floor surfaces in labs or hospital settings.

Why are the heavy-duty industrial casters with Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheels good for sanitary applications?

The heavy-duty industrial casters with Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheels roll easier than gray rubber on smooth floors, withstand impacts and heavy loads while offering quiet rolling, with the stainless steel assembly ensuring corrosion resistance and NSF/ROHS compliance, making them a smart choice for sanitary applications in food processing or pharmaceutical labs without a big price tag.

What’s the load capacity and temperature range for the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the industrial plate caster, and how do I adjust for prolonged parking?

The Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the industrial plate caster holds up to 1500 lbs per wheel at room temperature and works from -20°F to 180°F, but don’t exceed 70% of the rated capacity for applications parked for prolonged periods to avoid potential flat-spotting.

How does the ergonomic design of the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the heavy-duty industrial caster benefit users in institutional settings?

The ergonomic design of the Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheel in the heavy-duty industrial caster, with its flexible polyurethane crown tread and semi-cushioned ride, reduces push-pull forces and the effort needed to change directions and start motion, while the larger swivel radius on 6” and 8” wheels minimizes shimmy vibration, enhancing user comfort and control during manual operation in institutional settings like labs and hospitals.

Why are the standard wheel brakes and swivel locks on the Model G15 industrial kingpinless caster with Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheels important for safety in hospital or lab settings?

The standard wheel brakes and swivel locks on the Model G15 industrial kingpinless caster with Polyurethane on Glass-Filled Nylon (UG) Caster Wheels allow users to secure the equipment—like a cart, table, or lab device—by preventing unwanted movement during tasks such as cleaning, setup, or maintenance, ensuring stability and safety in hospital or lab settings.

What makes the Model G15 heavy-duty industrial caster a trusted choice for institutional sanitary applications?

The Model G15 heavy-duty industrial caster ensures reliability in institutional sanitary applications through its stainless steel construction, NSF/ROHS compliance, and corrosion resistance, with a kingpinless design that reduces vibration and provides long-lasting performance during critical tasks like cleaning and sterilization in washdown settings, making it a trusted choice for safety-focused environments.

How does the Model G15 heavy-duty industrial caster enhance stability for hospital or lab equipment in institutional settings?

The Model G15 heavy-duty industrial caster enhances stability for hospital or lab equipment by using a precision machined swivel bearing for smoother operation, a durable construction for longevity, and standard wheel brakes and swivel locks to secure equipment—like carts, tables, or workstations—firmly in place during cleaning, sterilization, or setup in institutional settings, ensuring safety in high-precision environments.
