Product Details
About This Caster - 16XS05201S
Choose this 5-inch 16 Series swivel for the front of a quiet cart that needs more clearance than a 4-inch, the mold-on rubber caster that steers non-marking and bridges a thicker seam without a hard wheel's rumble.
A hard 5-inch wheel hammers a load over a floor seam and scuffs a finished surface; the 16 Series mold-on rubber tread on a polypropylene core cushions the ride and stays non-marking, while the taller diameter clears a thicker threshold than a 4-inch. The roller bearing carries the load at a walk, and the 4 by 4-1/2 top plate bolts to a flat deck. USA-made for fast shipping.
Ideal applications
- Front of quiet carts needing 5-inch clearance
- Thicker thresholds a 4-inch front catches on
- Medium-heavy loads through clean areas
Skip the rubber wheel if the load parks heavy for hours or works near heat over 180°F; a phenolic 16 Series wheel carries the standing load and takes the oil and heat to 250°F.
Pairs with: the 16XS05201R rigid on the back corners.
Wrong fit? Need a brake, or a bigger wheel? See the 16XS05201SFBA face brake and the 8-inch 16XS08201S.

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.
