CASTORS TO MEET YOUR NEEDS
Hard-tread polyolefin castors roll
easier than soft tread castors.
Nonmarking, impact- and chemicalresistant castors won't flat-spot
under static loads or pick up metal
shavings, nails, and other debris.
Pneumatic castors provide a cushioned
and quiet ride for fragile loads, making
them ideal for rough and uneven
surfaces, inside and out.
TPR castors absorb shock,
provide floor surface protection,
and quiet operation. Chemical and
water-resistant.
