Product Details
About This Caster - 2.05253.565
Pick this 5-inch round-tread Performa rubber swivel with the ball bearing and pipe-thread stem for a threaded-pipe-frame cart that turns often, the tall crowned Grey tread that swivels with less scrub and the stem that screws onto 3/4-inch NPT.
The round, crowned tread meets the floor on a narrow contact patch, so the caster swivels and breaks away with less effort on a pipe frame, the ball bearing keeps the load rolling easy, and the stem threads onto 3/4-inch NPT without an adapter. The tall 5-inch wheel clears the biggest thresholds. Confirm your leg is 3/4-inch NPT before you order. It is the tall easy-swiveling round-tread pipe-thread rubber swivel for a threaded-pipe cart that turns often.
Ideal applications
- Pipe-frame cart on 3/4-inch NPT that turns often
- Tall crowned tread that swivels light on a pipe leg
- 5-inch wheel that clears the biggest thresholds while it turns
Carrying a steady heavy load that rarely turns, or want a machine-thread stem? A flat tread or a threaded stem fits better.
Pairs with: the round-tread rubber ball rigid 31M1B50G-03 on the trailing corners.
Wrong fit? Want a flat tread or a tougher wheel? See the polyolefin pipe-thread swivel 31GB50X89-03 and the polyurethane pipe-thread swivel 31JB50X89-03.
Also in this family: the polyurethane Delrin pipe-thread swivel 31JH50X89-03, 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.
