Tente ESD swivel castor 50 mm with brake, plate fitting 60 x 60 mm

Trolleys and stands inside the ESD protected area have to roll freely and then stand securely at the workstation. This swivel castor with a 50 mm wheel diameter covers both, because it swivels and carries a wheel brake. The wheel body is made from electrically conductive polypropylene, so charge from the structure drains through the tread to the floor. The small diameter keeps the overall height low, which matters on shallow bases and shuttle trolleys.

Benefits

• Wheel diameter of 50 mm, a compact castor for low mounting heights on frames and small trolleys.
• Wheel body in electrically conductive polypropylene, the discharge path from the structure to the floor stays closed.
• TENTEprene tread, a grey thermoplastic rubber that runs non-marking and leaves light floors clean.
• Wheel brake, the trolley stays put at the workstation instead of rolling away during loading.
• Swivel head with a double ball race, the castor follows the steering movement evenly even under load.
• Housing in bright zinc-plated, blue-passivated sheet steel, a solid mount for continuous use in production.
• Plate fitting with a 60 x 60 mm bolt pattern, the castor bolts straight onto a flat mounting surface.

Application

The castor is fitted to ESD transport systems and to mobile equipment in the EPA, for instance to the bases of workbenches, to material trolleys, shelf trolleys and mobile test rigs. At 50 mm diameter it suits light structures and short routes in production areas where the floor is light in colour and prone to marking. The brake is applied whenever work is done at the trolley or material is transferred. For mounting, the structure needs a flat surface with a hole pattern matching the 60 x 60 mm plate. The range is also available with 75 mm and 100 mm wheel diameters.
