Marine & Ship Building Casters

For wet, salty, on-deck conditions, choose corrosion-resistant stainless steel rigs with polyurethane or nylon wheels that resist water and chemicals. For heavy shipyard fabrication, heavy-duty kingpinless casters carry the load. This collection covers both ends of marine and shipbuilding needs.

Many are. The collection includes stainless steel rigs and corrosion-resistant polyurethane and nylon wheels for the salt, water, and humidity of marine environments. For the harshest exposure, choose stainless throughout and confirm the bearing is also rated for wet conditions.

This collection ranges from about 150 to 5,400 lbs per caster. Light on-deck carts use the lower end, while heavy fabrication equipment and hull-section moving need the heavy-duty options. Divide your total load across all casters and add a safety margin.

Marine casters emphasize corrosion resistance for salt and water exposure, typically using stainless rigs and chemical-resistant wheels, while still offering the heavy capacity shipbuilding demands. Standard casters may rust quickly in marine conditions, so corrosion-resistant materials are the key difference.
