8 x 2" Rigid Caster with Ductile Round Iron Tread Wheel, Albion 62 Series - 62FR08201R

About This Caster - 62FR08201R

Set this 8-inch 62 Series rigid on the back corners of the biggest hot impact cart, the ductile iron round-tread caster whose forged wheel takes the worst hits while the tall diameter rolls over scale and broken concrete.

Grey cast iron cracks when a loaded forge cart slams a dock plate; the 62 Series ductile iron wheel is forged to take the shock without cracking and rolls through heat to 800°F, and the 8-inch diameter rolls over scale, slag, and broken concrete that stop a smaller wheel. The round crowned tread cuts rolling resistance, the roller bearing carries the dead weight at a 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 biggest hot impact carts to 800°F
• Tallest forged wheel over scale and broken floor
• Resists cracking where grey iron splits on hard hits

Skip the ductile iron wheel if the floor is finished or noise matters; it marks the floor and runs loud, so a mold-on rubber 62MR08201R rides quiet on an iron core.

Pairs with: the 62FR08201S swivel up front for a maneuverable hot cart.

Wrong fit? Need a swivel, or a quieter wheel? See the 62FR08201S swivel and the mold-on rubber 62MR08201R.
