It is engaged and released by pressing the foot-operated lever with your foot ? no tools required. This makes it ideal for situations where equipment must remain stationary during loading, unloading, or use on a slight incline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pc-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pc-faq-q\"\u003eIs this castor suitable for use on hard floors such as concrete, vinyl, or ceramic tiles?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pc-faq-a\"\u003eYes. The blue rubber tread at 75 Shore A hardness provides sufficient grip and vibration absorption for smooth and semi-smooth hard floor surfaces including concrete, vinyl, epoxy-coated floors, and ceramic tiles. The rubber compound also helps protect floor finishes from marking or scuffing under normal operating loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pc-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pc-faq-q\"\u003eHow do I know if this castor will fit my existing equipment?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pc-faq-a\"\u003eThis castor uses a standard 4-bolt top plate measuring 100 mm (length) x 85 mm (width), with fixing hole centres of 60 mm and 80 mm and a hole diameter of 10 mm. Before ordering, measure the existing top plate on your equipment and compare these dimensions. The dual hole-centre pattern (60\/80 mm) provides compatibility with a wide range of standard trolley and equipment frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pc-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pc-faq-q\"\u003eCan I use a single castor rated at 140 kg to carry a 140 kg load?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pc-faq-a\"\u003eNo. The 140 kg figure is the rated capacity for a single castor under ideal, evenly distributed static conditions. In practice, load is rarely distributed perfectly equally across all four castors. As a general guideline, the combined rated capacity of all four castors should be at least three times the total load weight. For this castor, a set of four provides a combined rating of 420 kg, making it appropriate for equipment with a total loaded weight of up to approximately 140 kg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pc-note\"\u003e* All measurements are nominal. Load ratings apply to static conditions on flat, even surfaces. For dynamic or high-cycle applications, consult load de-rating guidelines.
