Unique Features of MS Spring-Loaded Casters

MS casters offer several unique features that set them apart from conventional casters and even most other suspension casters.

MS dual-wheel casters have separate axles with separate springs and legs for each wheel. It’s like having two independent casters on one top plate. This design offers several benefits, including carrying the load equally on both wheels when an obstruction is encountered, minimizing the risk of tilting the top plate, and reducing bounce and vibration.

All MS casters utilize a linear suspension system, which achieves optimal shock reduction and drastically reduces shimmy, dynamic bounce, and resonance when the cart is empty or loaded beyond its rated capacity.

Our aluminum line of corrosion-resistant casters are lightweight and can withstand most chemicals while having the shine and appeal that only aluminum has. These casters are often used in Aviation Ground Support, Aircraft Maintenance, Military and Defense applications. And for those who prefer steel to aluminum for added capacity, MS casters have those too.

By understanding the benefits and features of MS casters and applying what factors are needed in picking suspension casters, you can choose the right caster for your application and ensure safe and efficient mobility for your team.
