What is the maximum weight this castor can support?

Each castor has a load capacity of 50kg. When using four castors together, the maximum combined load capacity is 150kg. Always distribute weight evenly across all castors for optimal performance and safety.

Will this castor damage my floors?

No, the grey rubber wheel is specifically designed to be non-marking and floor-friendly. It protects delicate surfaces including hardwood, laminate, tile, and polished concrete from scratches and scuffs while providing smooth, quiet movement.

How do I install this top plate castor?

Installation is straightforward using the 4-hole top plate. The plate measures 65mm x 50mm with 6mm diameter holes. Hole centres are positioned at 50mm (length) and 36mm (width). Simply align the plate with your equipment base and secure using appropriate fixings for your application.

What does swivel mean and why is it beneficial?

A swivel castor rotates 360 degrees, allowing the wheel to turn in any direction. This provides exceptional manoeuvrability, making it easy to navigate tight corners and confined spaces. The 70mm swivel radius ensures smooth directional changes without binding.

What is the total height of this castor?

The total castor height from the base of the wheel to the top of the mounting plate is 107mm. This compact, low-profile design is ideal for applications where clearance is limited or a lower overall height is preferred.

Is this castor suitable for outdoor use?

While the zinc-plated finish provides some corrosion protection, this castor is primarily designed for indoor commercial and retail environments. For regular outdoor use or exposure to moisture, consider castors with enhanced weather-resistant coatings.

What type of bearing does this castor use?

This castor features a plain bearing system, which provides reliable performance for light to medium-duty applications with moderate frequency of use. Plain bearings are cost-effective and suitable for most retail and commercial furniture applications.

Can I use this castor on carpeted surfaces?

Yes, this castor can be used on low-pile commercial carpet, though it performs best on hard, smooth surfaces. For thick or high-pile carpet, consider castors with larger wheel diameters for easier rolling and reduced resistance.
