Product Details
About This Caster - 2.05256.55
Bolt this 5-inch polyolefin swivel with the ball bearing and top plate to a busy wash-down cart that gets loaded and moved often, the ball bearing that rolls the weight easy and the tall Black polyolefin wheel that washdown will not break down.
The ball bearing carries a heavier load and rolls it with less push than a Delrin bore, so a loaded wash cart starts with less effort, polyolefin resists water and mild chemicals where rubber would swell, the plate bolts to a flat frame, and the tall 5-inch wheel clears the biggest thresholds. It is a hard economical wheel, so it rolls freely 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 easy-rolling polyolefin swivel for a busy wet-area cart.
Ideal applications
- Busy wash-down cart loaded and moved often
- Damp area where a hard wheel resists water and chemicals
- Tall 5-inch wheel that rolls easy on a ball bearing
Loads are light and infrequent? The Delrin polyolefin version costs less and rolls fine at low duty.
Pairs with: the polyolefin ball rigid 31GB50G-03 on the trailing corners.
Wrong fit? Need a brake or a softer wheel? See the top-lock polyolefin ball plate swivel 31GB50V02-03 and the rubber ball plate swivel 31MB50V-03.
Also in this family: the polyolefin Delrin plate swivel 31GH50V-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.
