Where it fits. Thermoplastic rubber is the quiet, floor-friendly choice. The soft non-marking tread absorbs shock and rolls without the clatter a hard wheel produces on tile and sealed concrete, which makes it a common specification for patient areas, retail floors, and anywhere noise carries. Softer treads trade some rolling efficiency for that quiet. This swivel model rotates a full 360 degrees and is normally specified two per cart with two rigid casters at the opposite end, or four per cart where the equipment has to move sideways in tight aisles.
Construction. The yoke is formed from chrome-plated steel for corrosion resistance. It mounts on a 70mm x 95mm top plate. This model is supplied with a directional lock brake. A 5/16″ steel single precision bearing rides on a 5/16″ axle for smooth, low-effort rolling.
Load and duty. The 250 lb rating is per caster. Standard practice is to size a four-caster set assuming three casters carry the load, so this model supports roughly a 750 lb cart with margin for shock loading and uneven floors. Continuous operating range is -4°F to 122°F.
About Series 26. Series 26 is our medium duty industrial caster line, offered in both swivel and rigid plate models. It is built to a higher mount height than the rest of the 20 Series, which makes it a straightforward replacement caster across a wide range of existing equipment. Capacities run from 180 lb to 425 lb per caster, with a choice of three plate sizes and four brake options.
