Castors and Wheels: Enhancing Mobility for Your Equipment
Castors and wheels are essential components designed to add mobility to various types of equipment. They are commonly used on trolley, platforms, cabinets, workbenches, and other transportation devices. Whether you’re replacing existing castors or adding them to s...tationary equipment, these components transform static items into mobile units, making movement and transportation easier.
Types of Castor Brackets
Fixed (Rigid) Brackets: Fixed brackets allow movement in only two directions—forward and backward—providing straight-line movement. They are ideal for applications where controlled, linear mobility is required.
Swivel Brackets: Swivel brackets enable the castor wheel to rotate 360 degrees, allowing movement in any direction. For added control, swivel castors can be equipped with various brake options, including:
Wheel Lock: Locks the castor wheel in place.
Wheel Footbrake: A foot-operated brake that secures the wheel.
Swivel & Wheel Brake (Total Stop Brake): Locks both the wheel and the swivel head, ensuring complete immobility.

Load Capacity = 400kg.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 800kg.

There is a hardened Taper Roller Bearing in he swivel head, which has a grease nipple, for smooth swivelling action and durability.The castor is unique because it has a self-aligned function enabled by two swivelling axes each with different swivelling radii so that the castor's offset can automatically alter when changing direction to optimise the castor's turning circle for the AGV. Specifically, the offset can range from 10mm to 30mm which reduces the castors 'swing' enabling it to better follow the designated path.The Top Plate is 112mm x 112mm and has 4 bolt holes that are spaced 92mm x 92mm, each with a 9mm hole diameter,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.

The Fixed Bracket has a 4 hole top plate with 80x60mm bolt hole spacing. The load capacity of this castor is 160kg using manual propulsion at 4km/h (walking speed)
The Blue Elastic Rubber Tyre offers a higher load capacity than standard grey or black rubber tyres. It is also non-marking, gentle on floors and the rubber absorbs vibrations whilst in motion making this a low noise option. The roller bearing lowers the rolling resistance to reduce the effort required to move the castors.
