ESD swivel castor 160 mm, top plate 137 x 105 mm, conductive solid rubber

Heavy shop floor trolleys need wheels that still roll easily over thresholds and floor joints. This swivel castor uses a 160 mm wheel with an electrically conductive solid rubber tread and drains the charge of the trolley to the floor in a controlled way.

Benefits

• Wheel diameter of 160 mm keeps the force at the push handle low and lets the trolley run over joints and cable ramps.
• Black solid rubber tread, electrically conductive, so the discharge path from trolley through castor to floor stays intact.
• Steel sheet wheel centre with a bolted wheel axle, the castor can be checked on the trolley and taken apart if needed.
• Swivel head with a double ball race, the castor lines up with the direction of travel on small steering inputs.
• Pressed steel housing, bright zinc plated and blue passivated, which stands up to moisture and corrosion in shift operation.
• Swivel head guard keeps threads, chips and film residue out of the ball race.
• Top plate fitting with a 137 x 105 mm bolt hole pattern, so the castor replaces existing castors of the same pattern without reworking the frame.

Application

This size makes sense under heavy transport trolleys, batch carriers and mobile frames that shuttle between production cells and the store. The large wheel diameter keeps rolling resistance low even on coarse industrial flooring. The range covers further wheel diameters for lighter trolleys.
