Product Details
About This Caster - 499-3RB
Choose this 3-inch braked swivel from the 499 series for an institutional cart that has to be parked and held at a station, where a non-marking wheel still needs to lock so the cart does not roll off.
The Faultless Rollock brake clamps the wheel to hold the cart in place, and the polyurethane tread carries the load non-marking on finished floors. The precision bearing keeps it rolling smoothly when released, and the top plate bolts to a flat cart frame. It is the braked partner to the 499 institutional swivel.
Ideal applications
- Institutional carts parked at a station or bench, finished floor
- Facility rigs that roll then brake to hold, sealed concrete
- Service carts needing a non-marking wheel and a wheel brake, multi-shift
Skip the Rollock brake on corners that only roll and steer; the plain 499-3TG costs less for the rolling corners.
Pairs with: plain 499-3TG swivels on the rolling corners, with these braked units diagonally opposite.
Wrong fit? No brake needed, or quieter rubber? See the 499-3TG and rubber casters in the Faultless collection.
Also in this family: 499-3TG plain swivel, or the full Faultless 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.
