4" Nylon Swivel Caster - 18NX04228SFBC

About This Caster - 18NX04228SFBC

Set this 4-inch ergonomic nylon swivel with a face brake on a hot-area cart corner that steers easily, then parks and holds.

A face brake presses a shoe against the wheel to stop it, holding a loaded cart on its spot. The 18 series cuts operator strain with a sealed, maintenance-free precision swivel bearing that significantly reduces the force to steer, and the black nylon wheel adds heat and chemical resistance, holding up to 220°F. The trade is that a hard wheel gives no cushioning and can be hard on a soft floor. The zinc-plated frame resists corrosion. It steers on a precision ball bearing, bolts on a 4 by 4-1/2-inch top plate at a 5-5/8-inch mount height, and holds from -30 to 220°F.

Ideal applications

• 4-inch braked black nylon ergonomic swivel that parks put
• Face brake holding the 4-inch nylon wheel at 220°F
• Low-effort sealed-bearing swivel in a hot or caustic area

For a corner that only needs to steer, the plain 18NX04228S drops the brake.

Pairs with: plain 18NX04228S swivels on the rolling corners and this braked caster on a parking corner.
