Product Details
About This Caster - 2.05256.53
Bolt this 5-inch polyolefin swivel with the Delrin bearing and top plate to a wash-down cart that lives around water, the tall Black polyolefin wheel that will not swell or rot and the plate that bolts solid to a flat frame.
Polyolefin shrugs off water, mild chemicals, and washdown where a rubber tread would break down, so this wheel suits a cart that gets hosed off, the Delrin bearing has no grease to wash out and resists corrosion, the plate bolts to a flat frame, and the tall 5-inch wheel clears the biggest thresholds. It is an economical hard wheel, so it rolls easy but cushions less than rubber. Confirm your bolt pattern matches the 3-5/8 by 2-1/2 inch plate before you order. It is the tall wash-friendly polyolefin swivel for the leading corners of a wet-area cart.
Ideal applications
- Wash-down cart that gets rinsed or hosed off
- Damp or mild-chemical area where rubber would degrade
- Tall 5-inch hard wheel that clears wet-area thresholds
Need cushioning over rough floors, or an easier roll under load? A rubber tread or a ball bearing fits better.
Pairs with: the polyolefin Delrin rigid 31GH50G-03 on the trailing corners.
Wrong fit? Need a brake or a ball bearing? See the wide-plate polyolefin total-lock swivel 33GH50V05-03 and the polyolefin ball plate swivel 31GB50V-03.
Also in this family: the rubber Delrin plate swivel 31MH50V05-03 line in 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.
