Albion Inc. Swivel Plate Caster 5 in 250 lb

Swivel Plate Caster 5 in 250 lb

This swivel plate caster mounts to carts, dollies and light equipment to provide smooth rolling mobility. A 5 in rubber tread on a polyolefin core absorbs vibration and leaves no marks on finished floors. The single wheel assembly carries a 250 lb load rating for moderate-duty transport tasks. It is sold new and ready for immediate installation.

Practical limits of the caster standard

The unit uses a fixed plate mount without a built-in swivel lock or wheel brake, so it cannot be locked in a straight line or held stationary on slopes. Non-marking rubber suits indoor surfaces but wears faster on rough concrete or gravel. Load capacity applies per caster; total equipment weight must stay within the combined rating of all wheels fitted.

Deciding specification — 250 lb load rating

The 250 lb per-caster rating is the single figure that determines whether this part matches the application. Buyers whose equipment exceeds this limit per wheel need a higher-rated caster instead. No brake or swivel lock is included, so applications requiring positive locking must add separate hardware. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.
