8"x 2-1/2" Rigid Caster with Moldon Rubber on Cast Iron Wheel, Albion 62 Series - 62MR08407R

About This Caster - 62MR08407R

Set this 8-inch 62 Series rigid on the back corners of the biggest heavy quiet cart that needs a wide footprint, the mold-on rubber on cast iron caster whose iron core carries the load on a wide 2-1/2-inch tread on the tallest wheel.

A polypropylene-core rubber wheel deforms under a heavy industrial load; the 62 Series mold-on rubber tread is bonded to a cast iron core that holds its shape under far more weight, the wide 2-1/2-inch tread spreads that load across more rubber, and the 8-inch diameter rolls over expansion joints and dock plates quiet and non-marking. The roller bearing carries the dead weight at a walk, the rigid fork holds the line, 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 heavy quiet wide-footprint carts
• Wide tread spreading an iron-core load over bad floor
• Quiet non-marking travel under the heaviest rubber load

Skip the rubber tread if the cart works near heat over 180°F or needs impact resistance; a cast iron 62CA08407R takes the heat and a ductile iron 62 Series wheel takes the hits.

Pairs with: the 62MR08407S swivel up front for a wide-tread quiet cart.
