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 zinc-plated steel for corrosion resistance. It uses a shopping cart stem attachment. Thread guards are fitted to keep string, film, and debris out of the axle. A 5/16″ steel dual 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 -30°F to 140°F.
