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:

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 Polyurethane tyre offers a low tractive resistance making it easier to get moving compared with softer rubber tread wheels. It is also a bit softer than hard tread wheels making the castor smoother and quieter running. The polyurethane tyre is also non-marking and gentle on floors while the roller bearing lowers the rolling resistance to reduce the effort required to move the castors. Put this wheel into a strong bracket that has a double ball race in the swivel head and you have a castor that is a great choice for the wide range of industrial and domestic applications.
