Such as nylon wheels, cast iron wheels, forged steel wheels, hard rubber wheels, polyurethane wheels, and phenolic resin wheels are ideal. Among them, forged steel wheels and polyurethane caster wheels are especially suitable for extra heavy-duty casters.

At present, the 12-ton extra-heavy-duty casters we produce are double-wheel casters with a diameter of 400mm and a wheel width of 125mm. Of course, heavy-duty with special specifications can also be customized, for example, heavy-duty casters with low center of gravity, the smallest 2-inch casters, and can also bear more than 360kg.
