Product Details
About This Caster - 2.05250.52 HT
Choose this 5-inch glass-filled nylon swivel with the plain bearing and modular hollow-rivet stem for an oven rack built on a socket frame, the tall Brown wheel rated to roughly 480 degrees and the plain bore that takes the temperature a packed bearing could not.
Glass-filled nylon holds its shape and capacity at heat that would soften a rubber or polyurethane tread, so the wheel rolls through ovens and heat tunnels, the plain bore carries the heat where a ball or Delrin bearing would fail, the modular stem presses into a socket for a fast mount, and the tall 5-inch wheel clears the biggest thresholds. The hard wheel rolls easy but passes more shock. Confirm your socket takes the 1/2-inch hollow-rivet stem and check your temperature before you order. It is the tall high-heat glass-filled nylon swivel for a socket-frame oven rack.
Ideal applications
- Socket-frame oven rack that rolls into heat
- High-temperature service that softens a rubber tread
- Plain-bore mount where heat rules out a packed bearing
Floors are cold and finished, not hot? A softer rubber or polyurethane tread rides quieter at room temperature.
Pairs with: the glass-filled nylon 5-inch high-temp rigid 31R1D50G-03 on the trailing corners.
Wrong fit? No heat, or want a quiet bearing? See the rubber Delrin modular swivel 31MH50X88-03 and the polyurethane Delrin modular swivel 31JH50X88-03.
Also in this family: the round-tread rubber ball modular swivel 31M1B50X88-03, or the 2 Series 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.
