8 x 2 1/2″ Ductile Steel – Model 30 Rigid Caster

Description

Rigid Caster Model 30 is an upgrade from the rigid casters shown on Model G15. These Rigid casters have wider wheels, huge wheel bearings, a higher load capacity rating, and a bigger mounting plate than the rigid caster that is shown on G15. It features superior performance on both manually moved and mechanically powered equipment. The Model 30 frames are zinc plated for rust resistance. There are grease fittings for the wheel bearings. Rigid casters are usually attached to equipment at the opposite end of the push handle and where swivel casters are attached. This enables the person pushing the equipment to be able to control the direction of travel. It should also be stressed that Rigid casters have 2 legs perpendicular to the mount plate, therefore they can not move sideways. Equipment with 2 rigid casters and 2 swivel casters must be handled into position. For more information and/or help placing an order, please give us a call at 800-501-3808.

*This Plate Caster Model 30 contains the Ductile Steel Wheel. The caster shown in photo with 8″ x 3″ wheel.
