5" x 1-1/4" Performa Rubber Wheel w/ Ball Bearing - 2.00005.445

About This Wheel - 31MB50-03

Choose this 5-inch Performa wheel for the workhorse service cart, the 5-inch ball-bearing wheel that ends up under more institutional carts than any other size because it balances easy rolling, floor clearance, and a quiet ride.

The 5-inch diameter clears thresholds and rolls long runs with little effort, and the ball bearing keeps that roll smooth under a loaded deck pushed shift after shift. The soft Colson Performa rubber on a polypropylene core stays quiet on tile and vinyl and leaves no marks, which is why it is the default on hospital, hospitality, and food-service fleets.

Ideal applications

• Patient-room and nursing-floor supply carts, vinyl over concrete, multi-shift
• Food-service and catering trolleys, sealed or tiled floor
• General institutional fleet carts pushed all day, mixed corridor surfaces

Skip the soft rubber if the cart carries heavy concentrated loads; it will flatten under sustained weight, so a 5-inch HI-TECH polyurethane wheel holds the load without setting.

Pairs with: the matching 5-inch swivel and rigid forks for a four-corner service cart.

Wrong fit? Heavy loads, or light infrequent use? See HI-TECH poly and the Delrin 31MH50 in the Colson collection.
