Product Details
About This Caster - 160-3SB
Use this 3-inch Faultless swivel on the corner of a warehouse cart that rolls and then has to stay put on a sloped or busy floor.
A tread-lock brake presses a shoe on the wheel to stop it rolling once the cart is parked, while the swivel stays free to point. The 3-inch diameter clears thresholds, and the Faultless 100 Series trades on strength, durability, and a low price for general plant duty. The wheel is a hard polyolefin, a black tread that rolls easy and resists moisture from -20 to 180°F, it bolts down through a 3-1/8 by 4-1/8 inch top plate, and the plain bearing keeps the roll simple.
Ideal applications
- 3-inch warehouse corners that park on a grade or in traffic
- General plant carts held still without a separate floor chock
- Economical hard wheels braked on a larger top plate
If the corner only rolls, the plain 160-3R drops the brake and the cost.
Pairs with: plain 3-inch 100 Series swivels on the rolling corners, these braked units diagonally opposite.
Wrong fit? Need a smaller wheel or no brake? See the 2-inch 160-2R and the plain 160-3R.
Also in this family: the 2-inch 160-2R, or the full Faultless 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.
