5"x2" Colson HydroTech Defender Series Swivel Caster - D4.05109.HF9.BRK7

About This Caster - D4.05109 HF9 BRK7

Choose this 5-inch Defender HydroTech swivel when a heavier wash-down cart steers freely but the wheel needs holding while it loads.

The top lock brake stops the wheel from rolling while leaving the swivel free to rotate, so a parked cart stays put yet can still be repositioned by hand without releasing the brake. Steering stays light through the swivel head, with a 4-1/4-inch swivel radius to allow, and the larger 5-inch wheel rolls easily over thresholds. The blue HydroTech alloy wheel is a corrosion-resistant tread built for the wettest, most chemical-heavy bays, on a roller bearing and a stainless steel frame for full wash-down duty. It serves from -45 to 180°F.

Ideal applications

• Heavier 5-inch wash-down carts that steer freely but hold during loading
• Pack-out lines where the wheel locks yet the cart repositions by hand
• Harsh chemical service where the wheel holds but the cart still moves

Confirm the roller-bearing load class, allow for the 4-1/4-inch swivel radius, and leave room for the top-lock pedal, before ordering.

Pairs with: the 5-inch HydroTech rigid D4.05108 HF9 at the rear for a steer-and-hold cart.

Wrong fit? Need the swivel locked too, not just the wheel? See the 5-inch HydroTech total-lock swivel D4.05109 HF9 BRK4 in the Colson collection.
