About This Caster - 170SE04201SFBB
Choose this 4-inch Empire 170 swivel with an FBB face brake and roller bearing when a heavy cart steers in open space and has to stay put when parked.
The FBB brake is the wider-radius face-brake style, pressing a shoe against the wheel to hold a loaded cart on its spot. The wheel is solid elastomer, a tough rubber-like compound that absorbs shock and runs quietly without going flat, grey and non-marking on finished floors. The roller bearing is built for heavier sustained pushing and shrugs off shock loads, and at 4 inches the caster carries up to 1,000 pounds and takes -40 to 230°F. 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 is zinc plated.
Ideal applications
- 4-inch grey solid elastomer roller-bearing FBB-braked swivel up to 1,000 lb
- Wide-radius FBB face brake holding a cushioned non-marking wheel in open space
- Heavy-push 4-inch elastomer cart for -40 to 230°F that parks and holds
For a total lock that also holds the swivel, the 170SE04201SFBBL adds a swivel lock.
Pairs with: plain SE roller swivels on the rolling corners and this braked caster on a parking corner.
Wrong fit? Need a total lock or easier swiveling? See the SE roller total-lock 170SE04201SFBBL and the precision-ball FBB-brake 170SE04228SFBB.

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.
