Product Details
About This Caster - 2.05208.441
Specify this 5-inch Performa rubber rigid for the trailing corners of an institutional cart, the fixed quiet caster that holds a straight line so a cart pushes true instead of wandering.
This is the rigid partner to the 5-inch Performa swivel: same soft Grey rubber tread on a polyolefin core that runs near-silent and leaves no mark, and the same maintenance-free Delrin bearing, but on a non-steering leg. A four-wheel cart needs rigid casters on the back so it tracks straight while the front swivels to steer, and without them a cart on four swivels crabs sideways and is hard to control. The top plate bolts to a flat frame, and the 5-inch diameter clears thresholds. It keeps a loaded institutional cart rolling quiet and straight.
Ideal applications
- Rear corners of a hospital or food-service cart, sealed floor
- Straight-tracking institutional rig that must roll quiet
- Four-wheel cart needing fixed corners to push true
Skip the rigid caster on a corner that must steer; the 5-inch Performa swivel 31MH50V-03 turns and follows.
Pairs with: the 5-inch Performa swivel 31MH50V-03 on the front corners to steer the cart.
Wrong fit? Need to steer, or a heavier load? See the 5-inch Performa swivel 31MH50V-03 and the 2 Series caster collection.
Also in this family: the 5-inch Performa swivel 31MH50V-03, 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.
