About This Caster - 170RT08201S01FBC
Pick this 8-inch Empire 170 swivel with an FBC face brake when the heaviest wet-area cart turns in tight space, then parks and holds.
The FBC brake is the close-radius face-brake style, sized to stop the wheel where aisles are short and the heaviest cart maneuvers in close quarters. The wheel is glass-filled polypropylene, a stiff reinforced plastic rated -20 to 250°F that resists washdown chemicals and corrosion where steel rusts. It is hard with no cushioning, rolls cleanly on smooth floors, and can mark, and at 8 inches it carries up to 1,400 pounds on a roller bearing 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 9-1/2-inch mount height, and is zinc plated.
Ideal applications
- 8-inch glass-filled poly FBC-braked swivel up to 1,400 lb in tight aisles
- Close-radius FBC face brake holding the heaviest plastic wheel in close quarters
- Maneuverable 8-inch washdown cart up to 250°F that parks and holds
For the wider-radius brake, the 170RT08201S01FBB uses the FBB style.
Pairs with: plain RT swivels on the rolling corners and this braked caster on a parking corner.
