6" Top Plate Swivel Caster with Phenolic Wheel and Face Brake (FBB) - 170TM06201SFBBL

About This Caster - 170TM06201SFBBL

Choose this 6-inch Empire 170 phenolic swivel with combined face brake and swivel lock when a heavier cart works in hot or chemical areas and rolls over rough floors, then parks dead still.

This is the total-lock build: the face brake stops the wheel and the swivel lock holds the swivel, so a loaded cart cannot roll or rotate when set. The taller 6-inch wheel bridges seams while staying hard and low-friction. The wheel is phenolic, a hard resin-bonded composite that takes -65 to 250°F and resists oils, solvents, and water. It is hard with no cushioning, so it transmits shock, can mark, and is best off soft or littered surfaces. At 6 inches it carries up to 1,200 pounds on a roller bearing, turns on a kingpinless welded raceway, bolts on a 4 by 4-1/2-inch top plate at a 7-1/2-inch mount height, and is zinc plated.

Ideal applications

• 6-inch black phenolic total-lock swivel up to 1,200 lb in heat or chemical areas
• Face brake and swivel lock holding a heavier phenolic wheel that parks dead still
• Extreme-temperature 6-inch cart from -65 to 250°F locked against roll and rotation

If holding the wheel alone is enough, the 170TM06201SFBC drops the swivel lock.

Pairs with: plain phenolic swivels on the rolling corners and this total-lock caster on a parking corner.
