Product Details
About This Caster - 16SZ08227SFBA
Specify this 8-inch 16 Series swivel for the biggest cushioned cart that crosses bad floor and parks at a stop, the semi-pneumatic caster whose tall wheel soaks up the shock with no air tube and whose face brake holds it still.
A hard wheel jolts a fragile load and a pneumatic tire deflates on a nail; the 16 Series Monoprene semi-pneumatic tread on a zinc-plated aluminum center flexes to absorb the shock with no air to lose, and the face brake presses a shoe to the wheel face to hold the cart at a stop. The radial ball bearing rolls it true, the 8-inch diameter bridges the worst seams, and the 4 by 4-1/2 top plate bolts to a flat deck. USA-made for fast shipping.
Ideal applications
- Biggest cushioned carts that park on bad floor
- Fragile loads that need shock relief and a wheel stop
- Routes where a pneumatic tire would go flat
Skip the semi-pneumatic wheel if the load is heavy and constant; the cushion tread gives under standing weight, so a phenolic 16TM08201SFBA carries the braked steady load firm.
Pairs with: the 16SZ08227R rigid on the back corners.
Wrong fit? Want no brake, or higher steady load? See the plain 16SZ08227S swivel and the phenolic 16TM08201SFBA.
Also in this family: the 16SZ08227S swivel, or the full Albion caster collection.

What our customers say
Excellent service! Outstanding quality castors.
Great customer service and casters!
Great service, friendly staff and quality product.
Excellent all inclusive selection. Was able to use their product search to easily and accurately purchase two pieces of Seperate but related pieces of hardware. Product shipped and tracked per UPS and arrived in a timely manner while packaged and in good condition. Product quality is excellent especially given price was a very reasonable.
Purchased Blickle casters from W.T. Hight Company. Rated 5/5.
Long story short, we purchased an under-counter freezer that was too tall and needed the casters taken off. However, I had no idea how to do that so a quick Google led me to W.T. Hight and the customer representative, Lemuga, was super patient and walked me through the process! Although we didn't purchase anything this time, their customer service was wonderful and we will be keeping this company on our radar for all things casters!
I had an amazing experience with W.T. Hight Company! I purchased casters for my equipment, and the quality was outstanding — sturdy, reliable, and exactly what I needed. The customer service was top-notch; they were incredibly patient and walked me through the entire process to ensure I got the right fit. Highly recommended.
