About This Caster - 170PM05228S80A
Set this 5-inch Empire 170 swivel on a steering corner of an economical cart that maneuvers and needs a softer, cushioned ride.
This is the 80A version: a softer 80 Shore A polyurethane tread that absorbs more shock and runs quieter than the firm green PM, gentler on delicate loads and finished floors while still carrying up to 1,000 pounds at this size. The kingpinless welded raceway keeps the swivel smooth, and the butterscotch round polyurethane is non-marking. It steers on a precision ball bearing, bolts on a 4 by 4-1/2-inch top plate at a 6-1/2-inch mount height, and holds from -40 to 180°F.
Ideal applications
- 5-inch economical Empire 170 soft 80A swivel up to 1,000 lb
- Kingpinless welded swivel on a softer butterscotch cushioned tread
- Cushioned value swivel at a 6-1/2 mount height for delicate loads
For the firmer standard tread, the green 170PM05228S uses a harder durometer.
Pairs with: the 5-inch 80A rigid 170PM05228R80A on the fixed corners and this swivel on the steering corners.
Wrong fit? Need a brake, a lock, or the firmer green tread? See the braked 80A 170PM05228S80AFBB and the firm green swivel 170PM05228S.
Also in this family: the 6-inch 80A swivel 170PM06228S80A, 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.
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.
