Product Details
About This Caster - 2.05250.445
Put this 5-inch 2 Series swivel under a service cart that moves through occupied space all day, where the deciding factor is a quiet roll that does not announce the cart down every corridor.
The wheel is Colson Performa soft rubber on a polyolefin core, which rolls quietly over tile and vinyl and leaves no marks, and the ball bearing keeps the loaded cart easy to push shift after shift. The 2 Series swivel is Colson's institutional standard, the caster you find under hospital, hotel, and food-service carts because it steers light and rolls clean.
Ideal applications
- Hospital and hotel service and housekeeping carts, finished floor, multi-shift
- Food-service and catering trolleys in occupied buildings, tiled floor
- Quiet-zone institutional carts pushed all day, sealed concrete
Skip the rubber 2 Series if the cart carries heavy concentrated loads that flatten the tread; the polyurethane 2 Series swivel holds more weight without setting.
Pairs with: the matching 5-inch 2 Series rigid on the back corners so the front steers and the rear tracks.
Wrong fit? Heavy loads, or wash-down? See the polyurethane 2 Series and Defender D4 stainless casters in the Colson collection.
Also in this family: 5-inch polyurethane 2 Series, 2-1/2-inch 2 Series, or the full Colson 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.
