This keeps the wheel facing in one direction, allowing the equipment to travel in a straight line. It's particularly useful when moving trolleys or carts over longer distances where you need controlled, predictable movement rather than full manoeuvrability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 8px 0; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; color: #212529;\"\u003eWill this castor mark or damage my floors?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 15px; color: #495057;\"\u003eNo. The grey rubber tread is specifically designed to be non-marking and floor-safe. It provides excellent protection for finished indoor surfaces including tile, vinyl, sealed concrete, and polished floors. The rubber material also absorbs shock and reduces vibration, making it quieter than harder wheel materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 8px 0; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; color: #212529;\"\u003eHow much weight can I safely load on equipment using these castors?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 15px; color: #495057;\"\u003eEach castor has a load capacity of 60 kg. When using four castors on a trolley or cart, the maximum recommended load is 180 kg (rather than 240 kg) to account for uneven weight distribution and dynamic forces during movement. Always ensure loads are evenly distributed across all castors for optimal performance and safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 8px 0; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; color: #212529;\"\u003eWhat tools do I need to install this castor?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 15px; color: #495057;\"\u003eInstallation requires four M10 bolts (or equivalent 10mm diameter fixings) to match the plate hole diameter, along with washers and nuts. You'll need a drill with a 10mm bit if pre-drilled holes aren't available, a spanner or socket set, and a measuring tool to mark the 60mm × 80mm hole centres accurately.
