Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a fixed castor and a swivel castor?
A fixed castor is designed to roll in a straight line only, with no ability to rotate or swivel. This makes it ideal for applications requiring directional stability and straight-line movement, such as trolleys that travel along fixed paths. Swivel castors, on the other hand, can rotate 360 degrees, providing greater maneuverability. Most equipment uses a combination of both fixed and swivel castors for optimal control and stability.
How do I calculate the total load capacity I need for my equipment?
To calculate the required load capacity, first determine the total weight of your equipment plus the maximum load it will carry. Divide this total weight by the number of castors you plan to use, then add a safety margin of 25-30%. For example, if your loaded equipment weighs 400kg and you're using four castors, each castor should support at least 125-130kg. This castor's 130kg capacity makes it suitable for equipment with a total loaded weight of up to 390kg when using four castors.
Will this castor work on different floor types?
Yes, the black rubber wheel is suitable for a variety of indoor floor surfaces including concrete, tile, vinyl, and sealed wood. The rubber tread provides good traction and shock absorption while protecting floors from damage. The 85 Shore A hardness rating offers a balance between durability and floor protection. However, for highly polished or sensitive floors, you may want to consider a non-marking rubber option to prevent any potential marking.
How do I install this top plate castor?
Installation is straightforward using the four-hole top plate. Position the castor on your equipment base, ensuring the plate sits flat and the holes align with your mounting surface. Mark the hole positions (10mm diameter holes with 60/80mm spacing), drill pilot holes if needed, then secure the castor using appropriate bolts, washers, and nuts. Ensure all fixings are tightened securely and check that the castor is firmly attached before loading. For best results, use grade 8.8 or higher bolts suitable for the load capacity.
