Castors and Wheels – Boost Mobility and Efficiency
Castors and wheels play a crucial role in improving the mobility of equipment across industries. Whether you're revitalising existing setups or adding movement to static items, these components transform stationary equipment into easily transportable units.
... You’ll find them on trolleys, platforms, cabinets, workbenches, and many other types of transport systems. With the right castor or wheel, you simplify handling, reduce strain, and increase productivity.
Keystone supply Light Duty, Medium Duty, Heavy Duty and Extra Heavy Duty Castors...and everything in between - from 15kg load capacity to 8,000kg Load Capacity.
Types of Castor Brackets
Understanding castor brackets is key to choosing the right solution. Let’s explore the main types:
Fixed (Rigid) Brackets
These brackets allow only forward and backward movement. They’re perfect when you need controlled, straight-line motion—ideal for guiding carts or equipment along a set path.
Swivel Brackets
For greater flexibility, swivel brackets allow 360-degree rotation. They let your equipment move in any direction with ease. Plus, you can boost safety and control by adding one of several brake types:
- Wheel Lock: Stops the wheel from rolling.
- Wheel Footbrake: A convenient foot-operated brake to secure the wheel.
- Swivel & Wheel Brake (Total Stop Brake): Locks both the swivel and wheel completely—perfect for full stability.

At Keystone Castors & Wheels, we offer a broad range of castor wheels to match different frame types and environments. Our collection includes:

Read More100mm 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.

Jacking Castor, 150mm, Polyurethane Tyre / Cast Iron Centre Wheel, Roller Bearing, 700kg (KJD150SUB)

It is important to note that the minimum Jacking Castor load capacity is obtained by calculating the total weight to be carried (unladen unit weight + maximum load) and dividing that by 2. This is because the operation of Jacking Castors means that each castor can be subjected to half the total weight.
Most applications require 4 Jacking Castors and in this situation, the recommended total maximum load that can be carried by 4 Jacking Castors is 1,400kg.
