6"x2" Colson Hydrotech Defender Series Rigid Caster - D4.06108.HF9

About This Caster - D4.06108 HF9

Mount this 6-inch Defender HydroTech rigid at the rear of a wash-down cart that has to run a straight line while the corrosion-grade wheel shrugs off chemicals and spray.

The rigid frame holds a fixed heading, so it tracks straight and shoulders the load while matched swivels up front do the steering. The blue HydroTech alloy wheel is the headline, a corrosion-resistant tread built for the wettest, most chemical-heavy bays where an ordinary wheel would pit or swell, and the 6-inch diameter splits the difference between the compact sizes and the big 8-inch for easy rolling over thresholds. A roller bearing carries slow heavy travel, all on a stainless steel frame for wash-down duty. It serves from -45 to 180°F.

Ideal applications

• Rear positions on 6-inch wash-down carts that must track straight
• Mid-size rigs that roll over thresholds without going to an 8-inch wheel
• Spray-down and chemical bays that pit or swell an everyday wheel

Confirm the roller-bearing load class and the 7-1/2-inch mount height against the matched swivels before ordering.

Pairs with: the 6-inch HydroTech swivel D4.06109 HF9 up front to complete the cart.
