More Information About This Product
About This Caster - 2.05208.445
Bolt this 5-inch Performa rubber rigid caster with the ball bearing and top plate to the back corners of a cart that tracks straight, the fixed yoke that holds the line and the tall 5-inch soft Grey wheel that rolls over obstacles a smaller wheel would stub on.
A rigid caster does not swivel, so it keeps the cart tracking straight while swivels up front steer, the 5-inch wheel is the tallest in this family and clears thresholds, cords, and floor seams the easiest, the ball bearing carries a heavier load and rolls it with less push than a Delrin bore, and the Performa rubber tread cushions the load and leaves no mark. Confirm your plate pattern matches the 3-5/8 by 2-11/16 inch plate before you order. It is the tall easy-rolling rubber rigid for the back corners of a cart that rolls over big obstacles.
Ideal applications
- Back corners of a four-caster cart that should track straight
- Tall 5-inch wheel that clears the biggest thresholds and seams
- Heavier load that rolls easy on a ball bearing
Need static drain or a swivel corner? A conductive version or a swivel caster fits a different job.
Pairs with: a matching 5-inch swivel on the leading corners (see the 2 Series caster collection).
Wrong fit? Need static drain or high heat? See the conductive 5-inch rubber rigid 31MB50GT-03 and the glass-filled nylon 5-inch high-temp rigid 31R1D50G-03.
Also in this family: the 4-inch rubber ball rigid 31MB40G-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.
