4"X2" Stainless Swivel Caster with Phenolic Wheel - D4.04109.331 SS

About This Caster - D4.04109.331 SS

Reach for this 4-inch Defender D4 swivel when a steering cart needs a hard, high-load wheel that handles heat and oils with no bearing upkeep.

The phenolic wheel is a hard resin tread that carries high load and resists oils, solvents, and heat to 250°F, a good fit where elastomer treads would soften or swell. The swivel head steers the cart, with a 3.375-inch swivel radius to allow, and the Delrin plain bearing runs grease-free and corrosion-proof. The stainless steel frame suits corrosive bays. Phenolic is rigid, so it rolls loud, gives no cushioning, can chip under impact, and can mark a soft floor. This is the economical heat-and-oil steering caster, chosen for toughness over ride quality. It serves from -45 to 250°F.

Ideal applications

• Steering corners on oily or hot shop carts at modest cost
• Areas with solvents where elastomer treads break down
• Maneuverable stainless rigs needing a hard, grease-free wheel

Allow for the 3.375-inch swivel radius, keep the load in the Delrin class, and check the 5-5/8-inch mount height before ordering.

Pairs with: the phenolic precision-ball swivel D4.04109.335 where faster roll matters more than grease-free running.
