Vestil D-CK4-PU8-2 Poly-on-Steel Plate Caster Set for Self-Dumping Hopper, 8" Diameter Wheels, 5000 lb. Capacity

This Vestil D-CK4-PU8-2 caster set contains four plate casters with 8" diameter rubber wheels, and is suitable for use with self-dumping hoppers and other industrial applications. Each wheel has a 2" wide tread made of mold-on rubber for cushioning the load, protection of the floor surface, and resistance to noise, shock, and vibration. This set has two rigid and two swivel casters for control and maneuverability. Each caster has a plate with four drilled holes for bolting or welding to a flat surface. This caster set has a 2, 400 lb. total load capacity when the weight is evenly distributed across all casters. Plate casters are wheeled mechanisms used to support and maneuver objects such as carts, racks, and dollies. Plate casters are named for their mounting system: they have a flat plate, usually with four bolt holes, that forms the top of the caster and attaches to the object. Plate casters vary in their maneuverability. Some are rigid and only roll at a fixed angle, while other casters swivel to allow a 360-degree change in direction. Plate casters may have brakes, and swivel casters may have locks to set them to a fixed angle. Casters may have single or twin (dual) wheels made from a variety of materials. Generally, wheels with hard tread material have a higher load capacity and roll easier than soft tread wheels, which provide quieter operation and cushioning. Load capacity for plate casters is also affected by tread width and wheel diameter. Plate casters are used on furniture, carts, shelving, appliances, scrap bins, production dollies, and utility trucks for material handling applications in a variety of industries. Vestil manufactures materials handling equipment, including hoists and trolleys, jib and gantry cranes, loading dock equipment, and storage solutions. The company, founded in 1968, is headquartered in Angola, IN.
