About This Caster - 170AN08228R01
Set this 8-inch Empire 170 rigid on a fixed corner of the heaviest dough trough or platform truck that crosses the worst floors on a long haul.
At 8 inches, the largest in this line, the wheel clears the biggest obstacles and pulls with the least effort, and the orange round-profile polyurethane tread is non-marking, tough, and easy-rolling on a lightweight aluminum core that will not corrode. It is built kingpinless with no central kingpin to fail under shock. As a rigid caster it tracks straight on the fixed corners, runs on a precision ball bearing, bolts on a 4 by 4-1/2-inch top plate at a 9-1/2-inch mount height, and holds from -40 to 180°F.
Ideal applications
- 8-inch Empire 170 PU rigid on the heaviest dough trough or truck
- Non-marking orange tread clearing the biggest obstacles
- Kingpinless rigid at a 9-1/2 mount height for long tow-line hauls
For a steering corner instead of a fixed one, the 170AN08228S01 swivels.
Pairs with: the 8-inch swivel 170AN08228S01 on the steering corners and this rigid on the fixed corners.
Wrong fit? Need a swivel or a brake? See the 8-inch swivel 170AN08228S01 and the braked 170AN08228S01FBB.
Also in this family: the 6-inch Empire 170 rigid 170AN06228R, or the full Albion 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.
