This caster is perfect for environments like warehouses, food service facilities, and healthcare settings, where strength, longevity, and ease of movement are critical.

Key Features:

• 8” Polyurethane Wheel for Durability and Smooth Operation: The 8-inch wheel is constructed from premium-grade polyurethane, a material known for its durability and resilience. Polyurethane wheels are resistant to wear, abrasions, chemicals, and moisture, making them suitable for harsh environments. They offer a smooth, quiet rolling experience, ensuring that this caster can handle the daily demands of high-traffic areas. The material’s ability to handle heavy loads without flattening or deteriorating over time enhances the caster's longevity.
• Rigid Design for Directional Stability: Unlike swivel casters, the rigid (or fixed) design of this caster allows it to maintain a straight path when rolling. This makes it ideal for applications where controlled, linear movement is required, such as when moving equipment along straight aisles or tracks. The rigid construction also adds extra stability, especially when transporting heavy or delicate loads, reducing the risk of tipping or veering off course.
• High Load-Bearing Capacity: The Winholt Rigid Caster is designed to support significant weights, making it an excellent choice for industrial environments where equipment often carries heavy loads. Whether attached to utility carts, shelving units, or material-handling equipment, this caster ensures that even bulky or dense items can be moved with ease. Its strong load-bearing capability reduces strain on users and increases efficiency in material transport.
• Non-Marking Wheel for Floor Protection: The polyurethane wheel is non-marking, meaning it won’t leave scuff marks or damage flooring surfaces. This makes the caster ideal for environments with delicate or expensive flooring, such as hospitals, offices, and retail stores, where maintaining the appearance and condition of the floor is important. Whether used on concrete, tile, or hardwood, the caster glides smoothly without causing damage.
• Quiet Operation for Noise-Sensitive Environments: Polyurethane wheels are known for their quiet performance, making this caster suitable for noise-sensitive areas like hospitals, schools, and office buildings. Unlike metal or hard plastic wheels that can create loud noises when rolling over hard surfaces, the polyurethane wheel minimizes sound, ensuring a quieter working environment.
• Corrosion-Resistant Components: Built to withstand various environmental conditions, the Winholt Rigid Caster is made with corrosion-resistant materials that prevent rust and degradation, even in humid or moist environments. This ensures long-lasting performance and durability, making it suitable for use in food service or healthcare settings, where equipment is frequently exposed to cleaning agents and moisture.
• Heavy-Duty Construction for Long-Term Use: The rigid frame and durable components of the caster are engineered for high-performance use. Its heavy-duty construction ensures that it can handle the everyday wear and tear of industrial operations without compromising functionality. The caster’s design makes it a reliable choice for companies that prioritize durability and cost-efficiency by reducing the need for frequent replacements.
• Ideal for Static Equipment: This rigid caster is especially useful for equipment that needs to move in straight lines or remain stationary once placed in position. It is commonly used in conjunction with swivel casters, providing the directional stability required for transporting goods while still offering the flexibility of movement when needed.
• Easy Installation: The caster features a universal mounting plate, allowing it to be quickly installed on a wide variety of equipment. The straightforward installation process makes it easy to replace worn-out casters or upgrade existing equipment with minimal downtime, improving operational efficiency.
• Versatile Application: The Winholt Rigid Caster with 8” Polyurethane Wheel is suitable for various industries and environments, including warehouses, manufacturing plants, healthcare facilities, and food service operations. Its versatility, combined with its high load capacity and durability, makes it an indispensable component for moving and stabilizing equipment.
