What comes to mind? A Ford Mustang or some other hot rod with a powerful, throaty engine? If so, you’ve got the performance part right. But when it comes to moving materials in industrial settings, the real muscle is found in the heavy-duty line of American Muscle Casters by Caster Concepts – the only industrial caster manufacturer that builds its entire product line in the United States. These beautiful brutes are specifically engineered to move materials from 5,000 to 250,000 lbs.
All American Muscle heavy-duty casters offer specific advantages depending on the application. Our Kingpinless 61, 71, 81 and 91 casters feature a large, precision machined ball bearing raceway. The kingpinless design utilizes the swivel bearings to act as load and thrust components to lock the swivel section and distribute the load, reducing stress on the swivel section.
Our Kingpin heavy duty casters featuring the 80, 85, 90, 95 and 99 series bring the top plated and swivel sections of the caster together. These tough casters are designed to withstand shock loads and have a 35,000 lb. capacity. New to this series is the HD-99 caster, another Caster Concept industry first. The HD-99 is the first and only off the shelf caster that can handle a maximum weight capacity of 50,000 lbs. It comes in a variety of sizes including an 18, 22” and 28” diameter and is available in various configurations depending on your specific application. Now customers have the convenience of a standard-order caster with the confidence of handling a much higher load capacity.
such as our 93 and 2-93 Series and our 84 and 94 series are ideal where flooring is not completely smooth or level, or the load had to be protected from vibration. When choosing any shock-absorbing caster, make sure you choose the correct properties. If the load is to light for the shock, the load can bounce excessively. If the load is too heavy, there is a chance of not having any shock absorbency at all.
A division of Caster Concepts, also has something under the hood, with both rust-resistant aluminum and steel shock absorbing casters unlike anything else on the market. This line features fully independent dual wheel casters with a suspension that works like two separate casters.
Still think high performance is related to a powerful motor? The motorized Drive Caster™ is designed to move tons easily and efficiently and can move up to 5,000 lbs. per caster. It is also designed with the flexibility to integrate into a variety of applications such as carts, dollies, walls, platforms, and turntables.
When you are looking for a low profile, heavy-duty caster, shouldn’t you get it from a company known for its high-performance products and industry-firsts innovations? Not to mention a made in America mentality. That’s where you’ll find American Muscle Caters, proudly designed and manufactured by Caster Concepts.
