More Information About This Product
About This Caster - 170RT04201SFBC
Choose this 4-inch Empire 170 swivel with an FBC face brake when a small washdown cart has to steer in tight aisles, then park and hold.
The FBC brake is the close-radius face-brake style, pressing a shoe against the wheel to stop it where space is short. The wheel is glass-filled polypropylene, a stiff reinforced plastic that handles -20 to 250°F and resists washdown chemicals where steel rusts and rubber breaks down. It is hard with no cushioning, so it rolls easily on smooth floors but passes shock through and can mark, and at 4 inches it carries up to 800 pounds on a roller bearing sized for manual pushing. The swivel turns on a kingpinless welded raceway with no central pin to loosen, bolts on a 4 by 4-1/2-inch top plate at a low 5-5/8-inch mount height, and wears a zinc-plated finish.
Ideal applications
- 4-inch glass-filled poly FBC-braked swivel up to 800 lb in tight aisles
- Close-radius FBC face brake holding a small plastic wheel on washdown carts
- Maneuverable 4-inch chemical-area cart up to 250°F that parks and holds
For the wider-radius brake, the 170RT04201SFBB uses the FBB style.
Pairs with: plain RT swivels on the rolling corners and this braked caster on a parking corner.
Wrong fit? Need the wider brake or a swivel lock? See the RT FBB-brake 170RT04201SFBB and the RT swivel-lock 170RT04201SL.
Also in this family: the plain RT swivel 170RT04201S, or the full Albion collection.

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.
