6" Top Plate Rigid Caster with AN- Round Polyurethane Wheel (Aluminum Core) and Face Brake (FBB) - 170AN06228SFBBL

About This Caster - 170AN06228SFBBL

Set this 6-inch Empire 170 swivel with a combined face brake and swivel lock on a heavier cart corner that has to steer, then lock down completely.

This is the total-lock version: a face brake stops the wheel from rolling and a swivel lock holds the swivel from turning, so a heavy loaded cart parks dead still instead of drifting. At 6 inches the larger wheel rolls over seams while steering, and the orange round-profile polyurethane tread is non-marking and easy-rolling on a lightweight aluminum core. The kingpinless design carries shock without a central kingpin to fail. It steers on a precision ball bearing, bolts on a 4 by 4-1/2-inch top plate at a 7-1/2-inch mount height, and holds from -40 to 180°F.

Ideal applications

• 6-inch Empire 170 total-lock swivel parking a heavy cart dead still
• Face brake and swivel lock holding wheel and swivel on a 6-inch caster
• Kingpinless aluminum-core swivel that fully locks rolling over seams

If holding the wheel alone is enough, the 170AN06228SFBB drops the swivel lock.

Pairs with: plain Empire 170 swivels on the rolling corners and this total-lock caster on a parking corner.

Wrong fit? Only need a wheel brake or a swivel lock? See the face-brake 170AN06228SFBB and the swivel-lock 170AN06228SL.
