6" Top Plate Swivel Caster with Round Polyurethane Wheel and Face Brake (FBB) - 170PM06228SFBB

About This Caster - 170PM06228SFBB

Set this 6-inch Empire 170 swivel with an FBB face brake on an economical cart corner that maneuvers over rough floors, then parks and holds.

A face brake presses a shoe against the wheel to stop it, holding a loaded cart on its spot. The green round polyurethane tread is the standard firm durometer, non-marking and easy-rolling for everyday loads, and the PM build carries up to 1,250 pounds at this size with kingpinless durability. At 6 inches the larger wheel rolls over seams while steering. It runs on a precision ball bearing, bolts on a 4 by 4-1/2-inch top plate at a 7-1/2-inch mount height, and holds from -40 to 180°F.

Ideal applications

• 6-inch economical Empire 170 green braked swivel up to 1,250 lb
• FBB face brake stopping the firm green wheel over seams
• Kingpinless value swivel that locks under everyday loads

For a total lock, the 170PM06228SFBBL adds a swivel lock; for a softer ride, the 80A version cushions more.

Pairs with: plain green PM swivels on the rolling corners and this braked caster on a parking corner.
