Product Details
About This Caster - D4.05108.555 SS
Go with this 5-inch Defender D4 rigid for a quiet cart that should roll with the least effort and travels often at a fair clip.
The round-tread Performa rubber wheel is Colson's soft, non-marking institutional tread, its rounded profile keeping rolling resistance low and the ride quiet on finished floors. The pedestal precision ball bearing keeps it rolling smoothly on faster, frequent trips and tow lines, and at 5 inches it eases over thresholds better than a smaller wheel. The stainless steel frame handles corrosive bays. Soft rubber keeps the load class modest, so this is the quiet, easy-rolling choice rather than a heavy hauler. Rigid means it tracks straight at the rear. It serves from -45 to 180°F.
Ideal applications
- Quiet 5-inch carts that should roll with minimal effort
- Stainless wash-down rigs on finished clinical or food floors
- Tow-line rear corners needing a soft, low-resistance round tread
Keep the load modest for soft rubber and confirm the round tread and 6-1/2-inch mount height suit the cart before ordering.
Pairs with: the 5-inch Performa flat-grey precision-ball rigid D4.05108.455 where a more planted footprint helps.
Wrong fit? Need a hard, higher-capacity wheel? See the 5-inch white nylon precision-ball rigid D4.05108.535 WN in the Colson 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.
