5" x 1-1/4" Polyolefin Wheel w/ Ball Bearing - 2.00005.55

About This Wheel - 31GB50-03

Specify this 5-inch polyolefin wheel with the ball bearing for a mailroom or sorting cart that crosses sills all day and gets pushed nonstop, the taller wheel that rides over thresholds on a bearing built for the cycling.

A sorting or distribution cart loops a building all shift, crossing elevator gaps and door sills with every trip, and it needs both the diameter to clear them and a bearing that does not stiffen under the constant pushing. The 5-inch polyolefin wheel rides over the transitions, the ball bearing keeps it rolling smooth through endless starts and stops, and the molded compound stays clean and water-proof. The 1-1/4 inch tread carries the sorted load. The ride is firm and non-marking.

Ideal applications

• Mailroom sorting cart crossing sills nonstop, finished floor
• Distribution rig looping a building all shift
• Tall light cart needing easy roll over elevator gaps

Skip this 1-1/4 inch tread if the load is heavier; the wide 8-inch delrin polyolefin 41GH82-01 carries more on a bigger wheel.

Pairs with: a matching 5-inch caster fork to build a swivel or rigid caster, from the Caster Hardware collection.

Wrong fit? More load, or a smaller wheel? See the 8-inch delrin polyolefin 41GH82-01 and the 4-inch ball 31GB40-03.

Also in this family: the 4-inch ball 31GB40-03 and 2-1/2-inch ball 31GB25-03, or the polyolefin wheel collection.
