5" Polyurethane Rigid Caster - 16PD05201R

About This Caster - 16PD05201R

Set this 5-inch 16 Series rigid on the back corners of a heavy non-marking cart that clears a thicker seam, the polyurethane-on-aluminum caster whose die-cast core holds the taller wheel true where a plastic core deflects under load.

A polypropylene-core polyurethane wheel flexes at the center under a heavy load and the tread cups; the 16 Series PD wheel molds the green polyurethane to a die-cast aluminum core that does not deflect, so it carries the highest poly load non-marking, and the 5-inch diameter clears a thicker seam than a 4-inch. The roller bearing carries the load at a walk, the rigid fork holds the line, and the 4 by 4-1/2 top plate bolts to a flat deck. USA-made for fast shipping.

Ideal applications

• Back corners of heavy non-marking carts crossing seams
• Loads that flex a plastic-core poly wheel
• Straight tracking with 5-inch clearance at high poly load

Skip the polyurethane wheel if the floor runs near heat over 180°F or you want a softer cushioned ride; a cast iron 16 Series wheel takes the heat and a rubber-on-aluminum 16MG05201R cushions the ride quiet.

Pairs with: the 16PD05201S swivel up front for a steer-and-track cart.
