-
Cast Iron hub with a non-marking Polyurethane tyre (fitted with precision ball bearings)
-
Shore Hardness - 92A +/- 3
-
Temperature range: -20°C to +50°C.
Custom wheels types can be manufactured and fitted on request - load ratings may be affected.
TH SERIES CASTORS
The pinless TH series heavy duty castors consisting of a heavy steel top plate assembly with double welded side plates, gives an assembly of great strength for loads up to 1000kg per castor (3000kg per set of 4).
It is almost impossible to separate the bearing assembly as long as the hardened and ground nickel chrome balls are in position in the precision machined ball track.
The balls are also capable of carrying a substantial radial and axial thrust.
The absence of a centre pin eliminates one more wearing surface which is a great advantage from a maintenance point of view.
8mm Base Plate & 6mm Fork thickness.
This range is customisable to match application specific specifications.
STC TOWING CASTORS
Ideal for tow trailers, heavy cargo trucks, light maintenance platforms, jigs, Gantries, etc.
This range has been developed for severe conditions encountered in powered towing, where high dynamic and static loads are experienced. Single castor loads up to 5000kg.
The swivel assembly consists of a lower precision angular thrust bearing and an upper, larger thrust bearing, capable of withstanding any combination of radial and thrust loads. The main stem has a thread adjustment, allowing for preload settings. Sealing the bearings reduces maintenance.
Legs are made of 8mm to 16mm plate, securely welded to the housing.
Wheels are fitted with deep groove precision ball bearings or taper bearings, depending on the application.
Available with a single or twin wheel configuration, in Swivel, Swivel Locking or fixed forks
Castors can be fitted with 90 Degree directional locks on request.
This range is customisable to match application specific specifications.
