Product Details
About This Caster - 2.04267.445 MTG42
Pick this 4-inch Performa rubber swivel with the ball bearing and expanding adapter stem for a busy round-tube cart pushed across the shop, the ball bearing that rolls the load easy and the MTG42 sleeve that grips the tube ID from inside.
The ball bearing carries a heavier load and rolls it with less push than a Delrin bore, so a busy tube cart steers with less effort, the expanding adapter clamps the round leg with no weld, and the bigger 4-inch Performa rubber tread cushions the load and clears thresholds. Confirm the MTG42 sleeve matches your tube ID before you order. It is the easy-rolling round-tube rubber swivel for a busy tube-frame cart.
Ideal applications
- Busy round-tube cart pushed across the shop on the MTG42 sleeve
- Ball bearing that steers a busy tube cart with less effort
- Bigger 4-inch wheel that clears seams on a busy tube cart
Slow, occasional moves, or you want a brake? A Delrin stem costs less and a total-lock holds the cart still.
Pairs with: the rubber Delrin expanding-stem swivel MTG40 on the corners you move less.
Wrong fit? Want a brake or a different tube ID? See the braked rubber ball expanding-stem swivel MTG42 and the rubber ball expanding-stem swivel MTG45.
Also in this family: the polyurethane ball expanding-stem swivel MTG42, or the 2 Series 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.
