An Easy Push For Ergonomics And Safety

Whether you’re looking to carry heavier loads without increasing the force to move them or need to reduce your push force to meet OSHA standards, our casters reduce friction and eliminate scrubbing for improved efficiency and safety.

Our tapered treads and wheels that rotate independently are designed to make it easier to move heavy loads while meeting push force safety standards. Swivel-on-swivel designs offer longer leads for easier rolling and reducing side-to-side shifting. In addition, higher-profile wheels can increase carrying capacity without changing wheel size.

Tempering Noise, Vibration, and Harshness Issues

For NVH issues, we offer products that combine the very best attributes of spring technology and polymer dampening technology that quietly reduce shock loads by 80% and noise sources by 15 decibels.

Spring Loaded casters absorb shock and minimize the impact on the cart, resulting in smoother movement, reduced risk of damage, and less noise. Spring-loaded casters are ideal for applications where surfaces are not even or are damaged. They are also great for applications where the load may be fragile or highly reactive to vibration, such as small parts or glass.

Shorter Lead Times And Savings On Domestically Manufactured Parts.

With more than 100 years of caster design experience, we frequently reverse engineer parts to solve our customers’ unique challenges. Caster Concepts designs and manufactures our parts at our headquarters in Albion, Michigan. As a trusted local source, we’ve helped many high-end automotive manufacturers save time and money by eliminating overseas shipping costs and significantly reducing the time it takes to manufacture a finished part. All while meeting load and safety requirements.
