The Workhorse Between Light and Heavy Duty

The Albion 16 Series is a medium heavy duty caster built for the broad middle of industrial work: carts and equipment that are too heavy for light-duty casters but do not need the bulk and cost of the heaviest rigs. With capacities from 250 to 1,250 lbs per caster and a choice of rubber, polyurethane, metal, and phenolic wheels, the 16 Series covers a huge range of everyday shop, warehouse, and institutional applications with dependable, value-priced construction.

Frequently Asked Questions About Albion 16 Medium Heavy Duty Casters

It is a caster sized for the middle of the load range, more capacity than light-duty but less than the heaviest rigs. The Albion 16 Series carries 250 to 1,250 lbs each, making it ideal for the everyday industrial carts and equipment that make up most applications.

The 16 Series is Albion's medium heavy duty caster line, built for durable, value-priced performance on shop carts, warehouse equipment, and institutional fixtures. It offers a wide choice of wheel materials and swivel, rigid, and brake configurations across 4 to 8 inch sizes.

Each 16 Series caster carries 250 to 1,250 lbs depending on wheel size and material. Divide your total load across all casters and add a safety margin. For heavier loads, step up to a heavy-duty series; for lighter loads, a light-duty caster may suffice.

The 16 Series offers rubber, polyurethane, metal, and phenolic wheels. Rubber and polyurethane are quiet and floor-friendly, metal carries heavy loads on hard floors, and phenolic handles heat and chemicals. Choose based on your floor, load, and environment.

Albion 16 Medium Heavy Duty Casters: 250 to 1,250 lb

Most industrial carts fall in the medium duty range, and the 16 Series is built exactly for it. It offers more capacity and durability than light-duty casters without the weight, size, and price of heavy-duty rigs. The result is a practical, well-built caster that handles the daily loads of shop carts, warehouse equipment, and institutional fixtures. When light duty is not enough but heavy duty is overkill, the 16 Series is the right call.

The Albion 16 Series carries 250 to 1,250 lbs per caster across 4, 5, 6, and 8 inch wheels, in rubber, polyurethane, metal, and phenolic. Rubber and polyurethane roll quietly and protect floors, while phenolic handles heat and heavier loads. Swivel, rigid, and brake versions let you build a complete medium-duty set for almost any cart or piece of equipment.
