Clean room and hygienic environments Frequently Asked Questions What is the maximum weight this castor can support? Each castor has a load capacity of 180kg. When using four castors together, the maximum combined load capacity is 540kg. Always ensure loads are evenly distributed across all castors for optimal performance and safety. What type of floors is this castor suitable for? This castor is specifically designed for smooth indoor floor surfaces such as concrete, tiles, vinyl, and epoxy-coated floors. The white nylon wheel provides non-marking performance and very low rolling resistance on these surfaces, making it ideal for warehouses, workshops, and commercial facilities. How do I install this top plate castor? The castor features a 4-hole top plate measuring 100mm × 85mm with 10mm diameter holes. The hole centres are positioned at 60mm × 80mm. Simply align the plate with your equipment base, mark the hole positions, drill pilot holes if necessary, and secure using appropriate bolts or screws (not included). Ensure all fixings are tightened securely before use. What is the difference between a swivel and fixed castor? A swivel castor rotates 360 degrees, allowing easy directional changes and manoeuvrability. This makes it ideal for equipment that needs to be steered or repositioned frequently. Fixed castors only roll in one direction and are typically used in combination with swivel castors to provide stability whilst maintaining some manoeuvrability. Why choose nylon wheels over rubber or polyurethane? Nylon wheels offer exceptional durability, very low rolling resistance, and excellent load-bearing capacity. They are resistant to many chemicals, oils, and solvents, making them ideal for industrial environments. Nylon wheels are also non-marking and perform well in both hot and cold conditions. However, they provide less shock absorption than rubber or polyurethane wheels. What is the total height of this castor? The total height from the floor to the top of the mounting plate is 181mm. This measurement is important when determining ground clearance for your equipment. Always account for this height when designing or modifying trolleys, carts, or other mobile equipment. Can this castor be used in food or pharmaceutical environments? Yes, the white nylon wheel and pressed steel construction make this castor suitable for hygienic environments including food processing and pharmaceutical facilities. The smooth surfaces are easy to clean and the materials are resistant to many cleaning agents. The white colour also makes contamination more visible during inspection. What maintenance does this castor require? Regular maintenance includes periodic inspection for wear or damage, cleaning to remove debris and contaminants, and checking that all mounting bolts remain secure. The ball journal bearing is designed for long service life but should be checked periodically for smooth operation. Lubrication requirements are minimal due to the bearing design.
