8" Rubber Swivel Caster - 18XS08228S

About This Caster - 18XS08228S

Set this 8-inch ergonomic rubber swivel on a steering corner of the heaviest quiet-facility cart that operators steer long distances silently.

The ergonomic payoff is biggest here: the sealed, maintenance-free precision swivel bearing significantly reduces the force to turn the heaviest loaded cart, and at 8 inches the large wheel rolls over seams while staying maneuverable. The grey rubber makes it the quietest, gentlest swivel in the line: non-marking and cushioned, it rolls softly while protecting a finished floor for a hospital, lab, or office. It carries less than the polyurethane-on-aluminum version but rides softer. 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 9-1/2-inch mount height, and holds from -45 to 180°F.
