Tag: Maintenance Free Casters
Dual wheels casters have two wheels for every plate. This allows them to bear more weight more evenly, which is an important consideration for heavy duty industrial applications. Double wheel casters allow you to spread a huge amount of weight proportionately over a bigger wheel surface. This weight distribution minimizes the damage to floors and reduces the overall size of the cart to save and saving space on the plant floor. In a dual-wheel configuration, there is also very little scrubbing of the wheels. As the force is applied, causing swiveling of a dual wheel caster, one wheel will turn clockwise while the other wheel rotates counterclockwise, reducing wheel scrubbing and making the swiveling of heavy loads a much simpler process.
Easy swivel casters, unlike rigid casters, which travel in a straight line, have an additional swivel joint above the fork, allowing the fork to rotate 360°. This makes it easy to move the wheel in any direction without changing its orientation. How well these casters perform depends on a few things. The first is swivel lead. This is the distance from the vertical centerline of the caster swivel section to the vertical centerline of the wheel. By extending or lengthening the lead, a loaded cart is easier to turn as it requires less force to get moving. However, increasing the lead on an industrial caster also leads to a larger turning radius.
The maintenance-free caster mitigates maintenance and repair time due to its pre-greased and sealed ball bearing. For many facilities, this eliminates the blocks of time required to perform preventative maintenance and repair on carts and dollies. Another situation where a maintenance-free caster excels is keeping out debris such as dirt or metal fragments. Painting and sandblasting facilities, boat manufacturing, metal fabrication, and even outdoor applications use maintenance-free casters due to their ability to repel/prevent foreign substances from entering.
