Heavy Duty Castors

Fixed and swivel castor housings for the wheel ranges above — pick the wheel type from our wheel range, then mount it in either a fixed or swivel bracket depending on the manoeuvrability your equipment needs. Swivel castors allow 360° directional movement; fixed castors track straight, typically used in combination (fixed at one end, swivel at the other) on carts and trolleys.

Key Features

• Compatible housing for the full wheel range above
• Swivel option for full manoeuvrability; fixed option for directional tracking
• Standard combination: swivel castors at the steering end, fixed at the trailing end

Applications
Any cart, trolley, or equipment base needing a castor housing — material handling, hospital equipment, commercial kitchen carts, general industrial trolleys.

Installation / Mounting

1. Confirm plate size and bolt-hole pattern against your equipment frame — [confirm against actual product design].
2. For most 4-castor equipment, fit swivel castors at the end that needs to steer, fixed castors at the trailing end — confirm this matches your equipment’s intended manoeuvrability.
3. Torque mounting bolts to the equipment manufacturer’s specification.

Selection Guidance
Choose the wheel material from the ranges above based on floor type and load, then select fixed or swivel bracket type based on how the equipment needs to move.
