More Information About This Product
About This Caster - PGT50748ZN-POD01 (KK)
Choose this 5-inch Shepherd Institutional stem swivel with a total lock brake for fixtures or food-service gear that threads into a socket, steers on an economical wheel, clears the widest thresholds, and parks dead still.
The total lock brake stops the wheel and locks the swivel with one pedal so a parked unit holds its spot. This is the threaded-stem version, dropping into a 1/2-inch-13 socket rather than bolting to a plate, with a hard polypropylene wheel that resists chemicals and moisture and wipes clean across a wide -20 to 230°F range. The tall 5-inch diameter clears the widest thresholds of the institutional sizes, on a plain bearing and a 4.375-inch swivel radius. Being hard the wheel can mark a soft floor. It serves from -20°F to 230°F.
Ideal applications
- Stem-socket fixtures and food-service gear that park dead still
- Stem-socket gear in warm or wash areas needing a wipe-clean wheel
- Budget stem rigs that clear the widest thresholds, steer, then lock
Confirm the stem thread fit and the plain-bearing load class, allow for the 4.375-inch swivel radius, and leave room for the brake pedal, before ordering.
Pairs with: the brake-free 5-inch polypropylene rigid PGR50120ZN-POD01(KK) at the rear.
Wrong fit? Mounting to a flat deck instead of a stem? See the braked top-plate polypropylene swivel PGT50120ZN-POD01(KK) in the Shepherd collection.
Also in this family: the braked threaded-stem grey rubber swivel PGT50748ZN-DMT32(GG), 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.
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.
