Stem Casters are a type of caster wheel that mounts to equipment using a stem rather than a mounting plate and makes them ideal for applications with limited mounting space available. They come in various stem types including threaded, grip ring, expanding rubber, and metal (square/round). Each stem module type is designed to fit different tubing or frame structures and allow for smooth mobility. Stem Casters are most commonly used on carts, furniture, and medical equipment. We offer stem casters with load capacities as small as 250 lbs and as strong as 1,500 lbs, with many pedal and foot brake options available.
We have a stem caster for any need and if you cannot find the right caster, please contact us directly (Call: 800-501-3808 / Email: sales@castercity.com) and we can help you find the perfect stem and caster for your application.
We offer a wide range of caster wheels designed for various use applications, including light-duty furniture, industrial machinery, and medical equipment and more to suit your unique or different mobility needs.
Total locking brakes are a popular choice when safety and stability. We offer brakes on both stem and plate casters. These brakes are designed to lock both the wheel and the swivel at the same time, so once they’re engaged, the caster won’t roll, pivot, or move.
Total locks are widely used in a variety of settings such as warehouses, medical facilities, food service environments, and even heavy duty industrial settings. They’re the perfect caster for mobile equipment that needs to be rolled into place and then stay firmly in position carts, racks, prep tables, or mobile workstations.
If you’re not sure what kind of brake or caster setup works best for your home or business needs, our Caster City sales team is here to help. With decades of experience, we’ll guide you to the right solution for your application and make sure you get exactly what you need for the job.
Stainless steel casters, offered in both plate and stem mounting styles, are built for use in wet, corrosive, or high-temperature environments where durability and cleanliness are critical. These casters are available in both 304 and 316 stainless steel—the former offering strong corrosion resistance for general industrial and food service use, and the latter providing superior protection against harsh chemicals and saltwater, making it ideal for marine and pharmaceutical applications. Designed to handle temperatures up to 450°F when paired with high-temp wheels and raceway seals, these casters perform reliably in extreme heat such as in autoclaves or commercial ovens.
Caster City’s stainless steel casters are built with longevity and performance in mind. Each unit includes a grease fitting in the swivel bearing for easy maintenance, protective seals, and a dust cover to guard internal components from contaminants. Whether you choose 304 for its broad utility or 316 for its maximum corrosion resistance, these casters ensure smooth, low-maintenance mobility in the most demanding conditions.
These industrial pneumatic casters feature air filled pneumatic wheels. These industrial casters are designed for low speed manually moved applications only. Air filled pneumatic wheels provide a cushioned ride, shock absorption and quiet operation. Pneumatic casters are ideally suited for moving fragile or delicate cargo where caster overall height is not critical. Casters with pneumatic wheels are usually the best choice for use outdoors over rough surfaces ( i.e. gravel ) or on grass. The wide footprint on 8″ or larger pneumatic wheels provides stability on gravel and does not sink into lawns.
Pneumatic casters and pneumatic wheels are also popular for indoor use in places such as hospitals, scientific and electronic laboratories, hotels, department stores and TV or movie studios.
Pneumatic wheels with black tires do not mark the floor as long as the wheel is allowed to roll. Changing directions without allowing a swivel caster to turn gradually around, or dragging a black rubber wheel sideways, can mark some floors.

Dual Wheel casters have two wheels that are non-marking which cover guard the floors by extending the load over a greater area. 2-50 Dual wheel casters provide a minimum overall height with a greater load size than a plate single wheel caster. The wider footprint provided by two wheels enables dual wheel plate casters to cross over gaps and grooves in the floor more methodically than a slim singular wheel.
*This Plate Caster Model 2-50 contains Ultra High Capacity Polymer Swivel Wheels.

Dual wheel casters are a superior choice for demanding heavy duty industrial applications. At Caster City, we specialize in providing heavy duty dual wheel caster solutions that distribute weight evenly across two wheels mounted side by side on a single swivel assembly. This design not only boosts stability and load capacity but also ensures smoother rolling on various surfaces, from smooth concrete floors to textured carpets. Ideal for industrial carts, furniture, and medical equipment, dual wheel casters minimize wear and tear while offering unparalleled durability—tailored to meet the needs of businesses seeking reliable, long-lasting performance without compromising on ease of use.
One of the key advantages of dual wheel casters is their innovative differential action, which allows the two wheels to rotate independently at different speeds or even in opposite directions during turns. This mimics the functionality of a vehicle differential, enabling the inner wheel to slow down or reverse slightly while the outer wheel spins faster to cover more ground. As a result, scuffing and scrubbing; common issues with single-wheel designs that can damage floors and cause unsightly marks — are dramatically reduced. Our dual wheel models promote easier rolling motion, protecting your floor surfaces and extending the life of both the casters and your flooring, making them perfect for high-traffic environments like warehouses, hospitals, and offices where floor preservation is essential.
Finally, dual wheel casters excel in reducing the forces required to change direction, making maneuvering heavy loads effortless and efficient. With less “wheel scrubbing” during pivots, you’ll experience lower pushing or pulling effort, which translates to reduced user strain and improved productivity in fast-paced settings. At Caster City, we manufacture these casters with premium polyurethane on iron center, forged steel wheels, ultra high capacity nylon wheels, and ductile steel wheels with a variety of bearing choices to suit any application. Bearing choices include, needle roller bearings, precision sealed ball bearings, or tapered roller bearings.
The Inner Workings of the Ultra High Capacity Polymer Caster Wheels
Ultra High Capacity Polymer Caster Wheels from Caster City are engineered to support heavy loads while protecting floors from the damage typically caused by metal wheels. Unlike polyurethane wheels, which can develop flat spots or delaminate under prolonged static loads, these non-marking black polymer wheels are compression molded and machined for superior durability and performance. Their straight-sided design maximizes load capacity, making them an ideal choice for indoor applications on smooth surfaces where floor preservation is critical. Available in 2”, 3”, and 4” widths and diameters ranging from 3” to 12”, these wheels are equipped with 2 to 4 precision sealed ball bearings (depending on size) for smooth operation and long service life. With a hardness of 80 Shore D and a temperature range of -20°F to 250°F, they resist corrosion, chemicals, and impacts, offering a robust alternative to steel wheels.
These wheels are designed for a wide range of heavy-duty applications across industries, including material handling, manufacturing, warehousing, aerospace, automotive, and more. Their flat tread face ensures stable load distribution, and the compression molding process eliminates the risk of flat spots, making them perfect for equipment like platform trucks, assembly line carts, or automated guided vehicles (AGVs) that remain stationary under heavy loads. Capable of withstanding shocks, chemicals, oils, and acids, these wheels are also suitable for harsh environments like chemical plants, food processing facilities, or marine applications. For high-temperature settings (up to 250°F) or specialized needs, such as stainless steel bearings or roller bearings, Caster City offers customizable options to meet your requirements.
