Braked Castors
Braked Castors are usually swivel castors with brakes. The Brake can lock either the wheel or the swivel head, or both. It is uncommon to find a fixed castor with a brake. Our GD Series of shock absorbing castors is one of the few that do. See GDS S...hock Absorbing Castors here.Braked Castors can swivel the wheel 360 degrees about the vertical axis. They consist of a housing with a lockable brake and a caster wheel. The housing itself is made up of a plate fitting, swivel bearings and a yoke. The Yoke is often referred to as the castor’s frame or bracket.
The plate fitting determines how the castor is going to be attached to the equipment. It is usually either a single bolt hole fitting or a plate fixing which is generally square, rectangular or triangular. Plate fittings are usually bolted to equipment so knowing your required bolt hole centres is important. The Swivel Head consists of a ball race and a number of ball bearings that roll within it. Braked Castors, like Swivel Castors, can either have a single ball race or a double ball race. They perform the same function. The double ball race was developed for medium and heavy applications. This is because they are compact, perform well under static and dynamic loads and provide excellent steerability.
Braked Castor Offset
The Braked Castor’s offset it the distance from the swivel axis to the centre of the wheel (where it is secured to the castor frame). It is the reason any swivelling castor will go in the direction you want it to go regardless its starting direction. Read More
