5" Rubber Rigid Caster - 18XS05228R

About This Caster - 18XS05228R

Set this 5-inch ergonomic rubber rigid on a fixed corner of a quiet facility cart that clears thresholds silently while operators move it.

At 5 inches the larger wheel rolls over thresholds with less push effort, and the grey rubber makes it the quietest, gentlest option in the line: non-marking and cushioned, it rolls softly while protecting a finished floor for a hospital, lab, or office. It carries less than the polyurethane-on-aluminum version but rides softer. As a rigid caster it tracks straight on the fixed corners, and the zinc-plated frame resists corrosion. It runs 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 -45 to 180°F.

Ideal applications

• 5-inch grey rubber ergonomic rigid clearing thresholds silently
