Industrial Casters
Standard and heavy-duty caster systems for carts, equipment, and material handling in manufacturing and logistics environments.
About This Category
Our industrial caster range covers every application from light-duty retail displays to heavy manufacturing transport. With load capacities from 100 kg to 5,000 kg per caster, sealed precision bearings for dusty environments, and swivel mechanisms engineered for tight turning radii, these casters are built to keep your operations moving.
Key Features
How to Choose the Right Casters
Caster selection involves installation type, load capacity, dimensions, material, and operating environment. Each factor directly impacts mobility, durability, and safety.

Type & Installation
Common caster mounting types include top plate (swivel or rigid), stem, hollow kingpin, and side bracket mounting. Your equipment type determines the mounting style. Pay attention to bolt hole patterns, stem diameter, and overall length.
Swivel
360° rotation for maximum maneuverability in tight spaces.
Rigid
Fixed direction for straight-line tracking and stability.
Top Plate
Four-bolt mounting for maximum strength and stability.
Hollow Kingpin
Through-bolt mounting for flush installation.
Stem
Quick-insert mounting for light-duty equipment.
Load Calculation
To calculate caster load capacity, know your equipment self-weight, maximum payload, and the number of casters. Always include a safety margin.
A hand truck has 4 casters. The truck weighs 100 kg and transports 500 kg of equipment.
(500 + 100) / 4 × 1.5 = 225→ Each caster must be rated for at least 225 kg.
Specifications
To ensure the caster fits your equipment, confirm key dimensions: wheel diameter, wheel width, overall height, and offset (swivel radius). Match these to your equipment's mounting requirements.
- Wheel Diameter (mm) — Determines load capacity and rolling ease.
- Wheel Width (mm) — Affects stability and ground contact pressure.
- Overall Height (mm) — Total caster height from mounting surface to floor.
- Plate Size (mm) — Mounting plate length × width and bolt hole spacing.
- Swivel Radius (mm) — Minimum clearance required for full 360° rotation.
Material
Caster wheels come in nylon, polyurethane, polypropylene, rubber, and cast iron. Different environments require different materials. See the Single Wheel guide for detailed material properties.
| Material | Tread Hardness | Running Quietness |
|---|---|---|
| Pneumatic / Soft Rubber | Soft | ★★★★★ |
| Elastic Rubber / Elastic PU | Medium-Soft | ★★★★☆ |
| Solid Rubber | Medium | ★★★☆☆ |
| Polyurethane (PU) | Hard | ★★☆☆☆ |
| Cast Iron / Nylon / PP | Very Hard | ★☆☆☆☆ |
Application Scenarios
Select casters based on floor surface, obstacles, environmental residue (chips, grease), temperature conditions, and required load capacity.
