Product Details
About This Caster - 18XS06228S
Set this 6-inch ergonomic rubber swivel on a steering corner of a heavier quiet-facility cart that operators steer over rough floors silently.
The sealed, maintenance-free precision swivel bearing significantly reduces the force to turn even a heavier loaded cart, and at 6 inches the larger wheel rolls over seams while staying maneuverable. The grey rubber makes it the quietest, gentlest swivel 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. The zinc-plated frame resists corrosion. It steers on a precision ball bearing, bolts on a 4 by 4-1/2-inch top plate at a 7-1/2-inch mount height, and holds from -45 to 180°F.
Ideal applications
- 6-inch grey rubber ergonomic swivel steering a heavier cart silently
- Sealed precision swivel bearing turning a cushioned 6-inch wheel
- Non-marking floor-friendly swivel at a 7-1/2 mount height
For a corner that has to park and stay put, the 18XS06228SFBC adds a face brake.
Pairs with: the 6-inch rubber ergonomic rigid 18XS06228R on the fixed corners and this swivel on the steering corners.
Wrong fit? Need a brake or more load capacity? See the braked 18XS06228SFBC and the 6-inch PU swivel 18AX06228S.
Also in this family: the 8-inch rubber swivel 18XS08228S, or the full Albion collection.

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.
