Braked Castors
Braked Castors are sometimes referred to as lockable castors and it is usually swivel castors that have brakes. The Brake can lock either the wheel (Wheel Brake), the swivel head (Directional Lock), or both simultaneously (Total Stop or Swivel & Wheel Brake). It is un...common to find a fixed castor with a brake. Our GD Series of shock absorbing castors is one of the few that do. See GDS Shock 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

The overall height of the castor is 157mm and the Blue Elastic Rubber Tyre with a Nylon Centre Wheel contains a Roller Bearing and has a 40m Tread Width. Load Capacity = 250kg. This castor is made from heavy gauge pressed steel with a 5mm thick Top Plate and 4mm Castor Forks. 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.
