Product Details
About This Caster - 62FR06201R
Bolt this 6-inch ductile iron rigid to the back corners of a heavy transfer cart that takes drops and impacts across a steel-plate or foundry floor, where an ordinary grey cast iron wheel cracks the first time a load lands hard on it.
Ductile iron is the reason it survives. Where grey cast iron is brittle and chips under shock, ductile iron flexes slightly and absorbs the hit without fracturing, so the wheel takes dropped loads and forklift bumps that would split a standard iron wheel. It runs on a roller bearing for heavy rolling and holds its rating across the full heat range a foundry or heat-treat line throws at it, to 800°F. As a rigid it tracks the cart straight while the front swivels steer.
Ideal applications
- Foundry and forge transfer carts, back corners, 800°F-range heat, steel-plate floor
- Heavy die and mold trucks that take dropped loads, debris-strewn aisles
- Heat-treat staging rigs under impact loading, multi-shift
Skip ductile iron if the floor is finished and cannot take a marking wheel; a polyurethane or phenolic 62 Series wheel rolls non-marking where impact and 800°F heat are not the problem.
Pairs with: the matching 6-inch ductile iron swivel on the front corners of a four-corner foundry cart.
Wrong fit? Finished floors, or lighter duty? See phenolic and polyurethane wheels in the Albion 62 Series.
Also in this family: 4-inch cast iron 62CA04201S, 8-inch phenolic 62TM08407S, or the full Albion 62 Series.

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.
