Heavy duty swivel casters

If the swivel castor for a tool trolley is faulty, you can always buy a spare one, and install it yourself. These items rotate on bearings around their axes. This makes mobile devices especially manoeuvrable and easy to operate.

The base of the wheel can be made of polyamide, polypropylene, aluminium, steel, etc. And the tires are usually made of polyurethane, rubber, and phenolic resins. Catalogues also offer monolithic parts where the base and the contact surface are made of the same material.
