GDS Shock Absorbing Castors
Shock Absorbing Castors by Footmaster – Smooth, Quiet, and Reliable Mobility
Discover the GDS Series shock absorbing castors from Keystone Castors—engineered to deliver quiet movement, enhanced control, and vibration protection. Featuring a high-performance rubber spring, these castors absorb shocks and reduce vibratio...ns on rough or uneven surfaces.
We proudly offer the world’s first shock absorbing castor with a total stop brake. This advanced brake locks both the swivel and the wheel, providing full stability when you need it most.
Why Choose Footmaster Shock Absorbing Castors?
Smooth Movement on Uneven Surfaces
Roll over rough floors, outdoor terrain, or tiles with ease. The built-in rubber spring cushions impact, making it easier to move heavy loads with less effort.
Protects Sensitive Equipment
Ideal for medical devices, electronics, and precision tools. These castors reduce vibration, helping to prevent damage and maintain optimal performance.
Better Stability and Safety
Reduce the risk of tipping or losing control. The total stop brake and shock absorption system work together to keep your carts and trolleys steady—even under heavy loads.
Quieter Operation
Perfect for quiet zones like hospitals, offices, and libraries. These castors significantly reduce rolling noise, improving comfort and professionalism in noise-sensitive spaces.
Extended Lifespan
By reducing impact and wear, these castors extend the life of both your equipment and the wheels themselves. Fewer replacements mean long-term savings.
Versatile Applications
Healthcare: Use on hospital beds, IV stands, and medical carts for silent, stable mobility.
Industrial: Ideal for transporting heavy loads in factories, warehouses, and loading docks.
Retail: Great for display units, carts, and floor-sensitive environments.
Commercial & Office: Use on mobile desks, equipment racks, and chairs to ensure smooth movement and protect flooring.
How to Choose the Right Shock Absorbing Castor
Consider three key factors:
- Load Capacity: Make sure the castor supports the weight of your equipment.
- Wheel Material: Choose based on floor type and noise reduction needs.
- Mounting Type: Select the right fitting for your setup—top plate, bolt hole, or stem.
