Product Details
About This Caster - ES5X2CIRTBK
Set this 5-inch cast iron swivel on a high-heat cart corner that has to steer freely and stop on a grade.
The tread lock brake presses a pad onto the cast iron wheel to stop it rolling while the swivel keeps turning, enough to hold a parked cart on a slope. The cast iron wheel holds up from -40 to 600°F for an oven or foundry line where rubber or poly would soften, and at 5 inches it carries a high load and steers into a tight spot. The trade is a hard, noisy wheel that damages a soft floor, so it suits bare concrete. It runs on a roller bearing and bolts on a 4 by 4-1/2-inch top plate.
Ideal applications
- 5-inch cast iron swivel corners that steer and hold on a grade
- Tread lock stopping a 5-inch cast iron wheel to 600°F
- Swivel braked corner on bare concrete at a mid deck
If the corner only needs to steer, the plain ES5X2CIR drops the brake.
Pairs with: plain swivel ES5X2CIR and rigid casters on the other corners.
Wrong fit? Need no brake or a cam brake? See the plain ES5X2CIR and the cam-brake ES5X2CIRCAMS.
Also in this family: the 8-inch swivel tread-lock ES8X2CIRTBK, or the full Pemco 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.
