8"x 2-1/2" Rigid Caster with Cast Iron Wheel, Albion 62 Series - 62CA08407R

About This Caster - 62CA08407R

Set this 8-inch 62 Series rigid on the back corners of the heaviest ladle or melt-shop cart, the cast iron caster whose wide 2-1/2-inch tread on the tallest wheel carries the most load through heat to 800°F over the worst floor.

Rubber gives by 180°F and phenolic chars past 250°F; the 62 Series cast iron wheel carries the highest industrial load through radiant heat to 800°F, the wide 2-1/2-inch tread spreads that weight across the most iron, and the 8-inch diameter rolls over scale, slag, and broken concrete. The roller bearing carries the dead weight at a slow walk, and the 6-1/4 by 4-1/2 top plate bolts to a flat deck. Industrial-duty.

Ideal applications

• Back corners of the heaviest ladle and melt-shop carts to 800°F
• Widest tread spreading the most hot load
• Tallest wheel over scale and broken floor

Skip the cast iron wheel if the floor is finished or noise matters; it marks the floor and runs loud, so a polyurethane 62 Series wheel rolls non-marking and a high-impact polymer 62 Series wheel takes impacts quiet.

Pairs with: a matching 62 Series cast iron swivel up front for a melt-shop cart.

Wrong fit? Need a swivel, or a narrow tread? See the 62CA08201S swivel and the narrow 62CA08201R.
