Stainless Steel Total Locking Casters Stainless
Caster Model 3A - Plate Mount |
|
Capacity up to 300 pounds
per caster. Stainless steel casters are ideal for use in a wet or
corrosive environment.
These casters are ideal for most light duty
applications where a caster must be totally immobile when the caster brake is
applied. Caster Model 3A has a unique brake which locks both the wheel and the
swivel bearing simultaneously. This "Total-Lock" brake insures that the swivel
caster will not turn when the wheel is locked. This combination wheel brake and
swivel lock is essential for safety in some applications - such as on
worktables and medical equipment. The Total-Lock brake is desireable whenever a
brake is needed because it makes a swivel caster totally immobile.

You
should never select on the basis of load capacity alone. There is no industry
standard for load capacity ratings and they may not include a factor for abuse.
Our capacity ratings are below what the casters are capable of carrying because
most applications have less than perfect conditions. Please refer to the
information shown at the bottom of this page. If you have any doubt as to which
wheel or caster is the BEST choice for your application contact us for a
recommendation.

Use the Polyolefin ( Industrial Plastic )
wheel for "Standing Loads". Polyolefin wheels eliminate the possiblilty of a
flat spot developing on the surfiace of polyurethane and rubber tires when the
weight exceeds 2/3 of the rated capacity when the object is left parked most of
the time .
|
You should never
select on the basis of load capacity alone. Capacity ratings do not take into
account the effort required to manually move a load. Capacity ratings are based
on manual operation under ideal conditions. If these casters are going to be
moved by mechanically powered equipment, consult us for a reduced capacity
rating based on your application.
