How to Select the Proper
Caster and Wheel
There is no simple formula or rule that can be followed in
selecting the proper casters. Many varying and individual factors must be
balanced to make the selection that will do the best job for you. The following
are several of the more important considerations.
Load Weight. The heavier the load,
the larger the wheel required for the caster. The weight of the load also
influences the mobility of the wheel. Roller or ball bearings are recommended
for loads over 400 pounds. Weight capacities are shown for each caster in this
catalog.
Floor Conditions. Make sure the wheel you
select is large enough to pass over cracks in the floor, tracks, moldings and
other obstructions. For floor protection on linoleum, tile, carpet, etc., use
polyurethane or rubber wheels.
Unusual Conditions. Each wheel material has
certain characteristics which will give the best results where unusual
conditions exist. For example, where acids, oils, chemicals and other
conditions harmful to rubber are present, polyurethane, polyolefin, Maxim,
phenolic or steel wheels are recommended. Check conditions, and then select
caster and wheel.
Rolling Ease. The larger the wheel
diameter, the easier it rolls. Roller bearings carry heavier loads. Ball
bearings roll easier but carry lesser loads. When possible, use the largest
ball bearing wheel for best results.
Extreme Climates. Room temperatures are no
problem for most casters. But extreme cold or heat can be a problem. Mywin helps solve this problem with [Colson 45"... the green lube which assures
caster rolling ease from 45°F below zero to 260°F above. It`s standard on all
Colson casters. (Note: Some wheel types should not be used in extreme
temperature ranges. Consult factory).
