Castors
Castors and wheels are components that attach to a wide range of equipment to make them mobile. Examples include, trolley castors, platforms, cabinets, workbenches and other transportation equipment. They are bought to replace existing castors or added as a new component to turn stationary equipment into a mobile unit.The ...castor's bracket or housing can be Fixed (Rigid) or Swivelling.
Fixed castor brackets can only move in two directions, forwards and backwards. Subsequently, they are described as as straight-line movement.
Swivel castor brackets can swivel the castor wheel 360 degrees. As a results they can move in any direction. Furthermore, they can be lockable with a brake. The brake can be either a wheel lock, Wheel Footbrake or a Swivel & Wheel Brake (also called a Total Stop Brake). Swivel and wheel brakes lock both the wheel and the castor's swivel head. A Wheel lock or a Wheel Footbrake locks the caster wheel only.
We stock a massive range of castor wheels to use in castor frames. Nylon, Polypropylene, Rubber Tyre, Polyurethane and Cast Iron are probably the most popular. Each type of wheel is available with either a smooth plain bore, a roller bearing or ball bearings.

The frame is aluminium. The parts have powder coated and zinc plated for protection.The shock absorbing functions means that the overall height can vary by 10mm. The castor's height without load is 100mm and this reduces incrementally by up to 10mm as the load increases providing up t0 10mm of compression for a fine shock absorbing function. - In Stock

The Blue Elastic Rubber Tyre on a Nylon Centre Wheel contains a Roller Bearing and has a 40mm Tread Width. Load Capacity = 250kg.This castor is made from 4mm thick heavy gauge pressed steel. It is a product that is built to last and is great for arduous applications.Blue elastic rubber tyres provide the benefits of a rubber tyre wheel such as being gentle on floors and absorbing fine vibrations but they can hold more weight and are non-marking. They are a great solution if you need a rubber tyre wheel but the load being carried is too much for a castor with a standard rubber tyre wheel. - Out of Stock - On the Way

75mm AGV Swivel Castor, Twin Wheel, 250kg Load | Polyurethane Wheel, Ball bearing (GATD75ASFHUD)
£436.04This Twin wheel ... Read More75mm Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) Castor has a bracket made from strong Forged steel that is zinc plated. There is a hardened Taper Roller Bearing in he swivel head, which has a grease nipple, for smooth swivelling action and durability. The Top Plate is 112mm x 112mm and has 4 bolt holes that are spaced 92mm x 92mm, each with a 9mm hole diameter.The castor is able to tilt +/- 5o from its central axis according to the flatness of the floor. This ensures that this castor's wheels keep contact with the floor allowing smooth AGV movement and protection of the loaded cargo when changing directions (See illustration below)The wheels are more widely separated from each other than most Twin Wheel Castors. When changing direction, the two wheels spin in opposite directions to each other which reduces the castor offset. The smaller the offset the less chance that the AGV will deviate from its designated line.This castor frame has two wheels with a Polyurethane tyre (Shore A 95) on an Aluminium centre each containing ball bearings, The polyurethane wheel has excellent elasticity the minimises slipping that can happen when an AGV starts or stops. In addition, the elasticity also absorbs small shocks arising from small imperfections in the floor. The wheel itself is non marking and will not damage the floor.

There is a hardened Taper Roller Bearing in he swivel head, which has a grease nipple, for smooth swivelling action and durability.The castor is unique because it has a self-aligned function enabled by two swivelling axes each with different swivelling radii so that the castor's offset can automatically alter when changing direction to optimise the castor's turning circle for the AGV. Specifically, the offset can range from 15mm to 35mm which reduces the castors 'swing' enabling it to better follow the designated path.The Top Plate is 145mm x 145mm and has 4 bolt holes that are spaced 120mm x 120mm, each with a 11mm hole diameter,This castor frame has two wheels with a Polyurethane tyre (Shore A 95) on an Aluminium centre each containing ball bearings, The polyurethane wheel has excellent elasticity the minimises slipping that can happen when an AGV starts or stops.

The Nylon Wheel has a low tractive resistance making it easier to get moving compared with softer rubber tread wheels. Together with the strength of nylon and because it wont damage concrete floors, this makes nylon wheel castors probably the most popular choice. The roller bearing lowers the rolling resistance to reduce the effort required to move the castors. Put this wheel into a strong bracket makes this castor a great choice for the widest range of industrial and domestic applications.
