Description
This 18-inch by 500 x 8-inch 80 series extra heavy duty caster, is meticulously engineered to withstand the most abusive applications. These casters are designed with heat-treated raceways to prevent brinelling and ensure long-lasting performance. The laser-cut formed legs provide additional strength, making them ideal for applications with side loading or skidding. Crafted with durability in mind, the yoke and top plate are manufactured through a drop forged process using C-1045 steel. The top plate features a machined raceway, while the threaded kingpin and 5-inch diameter machined yoke base raceway enhance stability. Components are heat treated to achieve a hardness of 40 + 2 Rc. The caster is equipped with a 1.25-inch precision tapered thrust bearing pressed over the kingpin, along with hardened ball bearings to complete the load-bearing raceway. With exceptional strength and reliable construction, the 80 Series Extra Heavy Duty Casters are the perfect choice for rugged industrial applications.
With wheels that mimick car tires, Pneumatic Casters feature rubber wheels around a metal hub, providing exceptional performance. They excel in moving fragile loads with minimal jarring on various surfaces including grass, pavement, and industrial floors. With quiet operation and load cushioning, they offer protection to both loads and floors. Constructed with hot forged steel and double row ball bearing swivels, these casters ensure durability and a long service life. The pneumatic tires cushion the load, absorb shocks, and effortlessly roll over obstructions. Featuring our precision tapered bearings, the wheels are capable of absorbing excessive side thrust loading and can be used where high speed operation is essential, all with a load rating of 3300 lbs.
