Product Details
About This Caster - 62NG05201R
Set this 5-inch 62 Series rigid under a wash-down cart that runs through caustic and hot rinse, the Maxim glass-filled nylon caster whose wheel shrugs off the chemicals that swell a rubber tread and the heat that softens a poly one.
Glass-filled nylon does not absorb water or the caustic and solvent that break down a rubber or poly tread, and it holds its shape through heat to 250°F where a polyurethane wheel goes soft. The hard tread rolls with low resistance on smooth sealed floor, the roller bearing carries the load at a walk, and the 6-1/4 by 4-1/2 top plate bolts to a flat deck. The trade is ride: the hard wheel transmits shock and runs loud, so it belongs on smooth floor, not delicate finish.
Ideal applications
- Back corners of wash-down carts through caustic and hot rinse to 250°F
- Sealed concrete where a hard nylon tread rolls with low drag
- Chemical lines where a rubber tread swells and poly softens
Skip the nylon wheel on a delicate finished floor or where a quiet ride matters; the hard tread marks soft floor and runs loud, so a polyurethane 62PD05201R rolls quiet and non-marking.
Pairs with: the 62NG05201S swivel up front for a steerable wash-down cart.
Wrong fit? Need quiet, non-marking, or a softer ride? See the polyurethane 62PD05201R and the 62 Series collection.
Also in this family: the 6-inch nylon 62NG06201R, or the full Albion caster 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.
