Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a fixed castor and a swivel castor?
A fixed castor only moves in a straight line along its mounting axis, providing stable directional movement. A swivel castor rotates 360 degrees, allowing for multi-directional movement and manoeuvrability. Fixed castors are typically used on the rear of equipment for stability, while swivel castors are used on the front for steering.
How much weight can this castor support?
Each castor has a load capacity of 90kg. When using four castors on a single piece of equipment, the maximum recommended load capacity is 270kg. This accounts for uneven weight distribution and ensures safe, reliable operation.
What type of flooring is this castor suitable for?
The polyurethane on nylon wheel is ideal for smooth indoor surfaces including concrete, tile, vinyl, laminate, and sealed wood floors. The 85 Shore A hardness provides excellent floor protection while maintaining low rolling resistance. It is designed for indoor use and performs best on clean, dry surfaces.
How do I install this top plate castor?
The castor features a 100mm x 85mm top plate with four 10mm diameter mounting holes. The hole centres are 80mm (length) x 60mm (width). Simply align the plate with your equipment base, mark the hole positions, drill pilot holes if necessary, and secure using appropriate bolts, nuts, and washers. Ensure all fixings are tightened securely before use.
What is the total height of this castor?
The total castor height from the base of the mounting plate to the bottom of the wheel is 106mm. This measurement is important when determining ground clearance for your equipment.
Does this castor require maintenance?
The ball journal bearing is designed for long-term, low-maintenance operation. For optimal performance, periodically inspect the castor for debris buildup, check mounting bolts for tightness, and ensure the wheel rotates freely. Clean the wheel surface as needed to remove dirt and debris.
Can I use this castor outdoors?
This castor is designed primarily for indoor use. While the zinc plated steel frame offers some corrosion resistance, prolonged exposure to outdoor elements may reduce the lifespan of the castor. For outdoor applications, consider castors specifically designed for exterior environments.
What is Shore A hardness and why does it matter?
Shore A is a measurement scale for the hardness of elastomers like polyurethane. This castor has an 85 Shore A rating, which indicates a relatively hard tread. Harder treads (higher Shore A values) provide better load capacity and durability, while softer treads offer more floor protection and quieter operation. 85 Shore A provides an excellent balance for most industrial applications.
