Product Details
About This Caster - 62CA08407R
Set this 8-inch 62 Series rigid on the back corners of the heaviest ladle or melt-shop cart, the cast iron caster whose wide 2-1/2-inch tread on the tallest wheel carries the most load through heat to 800°F over the worst floor.
Rubber gives by 180°F and phenolic chars past 250°F; the 62 Series cast iron wheel carries the highest industrial load through radiant heat to 800°F, the wide 2-1/2-inch tread spreads that weight across the most iron, and the 8-inch diameter rolls over scale, slag, and broken concrete. The roller bearing carries the dead weight at a slow walk, and the 6-1/4 by 4-1/2 top plate bolts to a flat deck. Industrial-duty.
Ideal applications
- Back corners of the heaviest ladle and melt-shop carts to 800°F
- Widest tread spreading the most hot load
- Tallest wheel over scale and broken floor
Skip the cast iron wheel if the floor is finished or noise matters; it marks the floor and runs loud, so a polyurethane 62 Series wheel rolls non-marking and a high-impact polymer 62 Series wheel takes impacts quiet.
Pairs with: a matching 62 Series cast iron swivel up front for a melt-shop cart.
Wrong fit? Need a swivel, or a narrow tread? See the 62CA08201S swivel and the narrow 62CA08201R.
Also in this family: the 62 Series collection, or the full Albion caster collection.

What our customers say
Excellent service! Outstanding quality castors.
Great customer service and casters!
Great service, friendly staff and quality product.
Excellent all inclusive selection. Was able to use their product search to easily and accurately purchase two pieces of Seperate but related pieces of hardware. Product shipped and tracked per UPS and arrived in a timely manner while packaged and in good condition. Product quality is excellent especially given price was a very reasonable.
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.
