Product Details
About This Caster - BMS30152TZ-GFN61(KK)SL
Choose this 3-inch braked nylon swivel for institutional equipment that works around heat or chemicals and has to be parked and held in place at a station.
The side brake throws a lever against the wheel to lock it, so the cart holds still while it is loaded or worked, and the solid nylon wheel takes the 250°F heat and the cleaning chemicals that ruin rubber and steel. The precision bearing keeps it rolling smoothly when released, and the top plate bolts to a flat equipment frame. It is the braked version of the BMS institutional swivel.
Ideal applications
- Food-service and lab equipment parked at a station, sealed floor
- OEM carts that run warm or get washed down and must hold still, multi-shift
- Institutional rigs needing a chemical-resistant wheel and a brake, finished floor
Skip the brake if the corner only needs to roll and steer; the plain BMS30152TZ-GFN61(KK) costs less for the rolling corners.
Pairs with: plain BMS30152 swivels on the rolling corners, with these braked units diagonally opposite.
Wrong fit? No brake needed, or a softer wheel? See the plain version and rubber casters in the Shepherd collection.
Also in this family: plain BMS30152(KK), or the full Shepherd 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.
