8" Top Plate Swivel Caster with AX-Round Polyurethane Wheel (Aluminum Core) - 170AX08228S01

About This Caster - 170AX08228S01

Set this 8-inch Empire 170 swivel on a steering corner of the heaviest economical cart that maneuvers across the worst floors.

The kingpinless welded raceway carries the heavy shock an 8-inch loaded cart drives through a swivel without a central kingpin to fail, and the AX build carries up to 1,500 pounds at this size. At 8 inches the large wheel clears the biggest obstacles while staying maneuverable. The maroon round-profile polyurethane tread is non-marking and easy-rolling on a lightweight aluminum core. It steers on a precision ball bearing, bolts on a 4 by 4-1/2-inch top plate at a 9-1/2-inch mount height, and holds from -40 to 180°F.
