Product Details
About This Caster - B-GTH 160K-TML
Choose this 160mm rigid for a towed train that carries more than rubber should and needs a holding brake with the lever on the left side.
The tread is Blickle Extrathane, a high-grade polyurethane on a cast iron centre that resists tearing and chunking and carries a higher load than the rubber wheels, holding from -4 to 158°F. The dead-man drum brake acts on a drum at the wheel to hold the cart, and this TML version carries the lever on the left to match the operator's reach. The rigid frame tracks straight under a tow, the ball bearing keeps the roll light, and it mounts on a 140 by 110mm plate.
Ideal applications
- Towed trains carrying heavy loads with a left-lever holding brake
- Rigid corners where Extrathane resists tearing under the load
- Cast-iron-centre poly braked from the left rail of the frame
For the lever on the right side, the B-GTH 160K-TMR mirrors this brake.
Pairs with: the right-lever B-GTH 160K-TMR on the opposite rail of the same cart.
Wrong fit? Want a rubber tread or a softer poly? See the rubber drum-brake B-GEV 160K-TML-SG and the Softhane B-GST 200K-TML.
Also in this family: the plain Extrathane B-ALTH 160K, or the full Blickle 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.
