Polyurethane HI-TECH Casters

HI-TECH is a premium polyurethane wheel compound engineered for easy rolling, long wear, and chemical resistance. It rolls with less effort than standard wheels while staying non-marking and floor-friendly, making it a popular ergonomic upgrade for high-traffic carts.

Yes. The low rolling resistance means operators need less force to start and move loaded carts, which reduces fatigue and strain on equipment used all day. That is why HI-TECH wheels are common on institutional and healthcare carts where ergonomics matter.

No. They are non-marking and floor-friendly, like other quality polyurethane wheels, so they protect finished and sealed floors. The premium compound also resists oils and many chemicals while keeping its smooth roll.

These range from about 200 to 1,000 lbs per caster, suiting light to medium-duty carts and equipment. For heavier loads, choose heavy duty polyurethane casters with larger wheels and metal cores. Divide your total load across all casters with a safety margin.

HI-TECH is a premium polyurethane formulated for low rolling resistance and high wear life. It rolls easier than standard rubber or polyolefin, reducing the push force operators need, which cuts fatigue on high-traffic carts. It is non-marking and floor-friendly, resists oils and many chemicals, and holds up to constant use. For carts moved frequently, the easy roll and durability make HI-TECH a smart upgrade.

Polyurethane HI-TECH casters in this collection span 2.5 to 8 inch wheels and roughly 200 to 1,000 lbs per caster, well suited to institutional carts, medical equipment, and light to medium industrial use. Swivel, rigid, and brake versions are available. For heavier loads, step up to heavy duty polyurethane casters with thicker treads and metal cores.
