Locking Swivel Castors

Locking swivel castors rotate 360 degrees and include a locking mechanism to secure the wheel, the swivel, or both. This lets equipment move easily when unlocked and stay firmly in place when locked. They are essential for heavy-duty industrial trolleys, carts, and machinery.

Choosing Locking Swivel Castors for Industrial Use

To ensure safety and stability, consider these key factors when selecting locking swivel castors:

• Load Capacity: Choose castors rated for the combined weight of your equipment and load. Industrial castors typically support 240kg to 600kg or more per wheel.
• Wheel Material: Polyurethane wheels offer durability and noise reduction; rubber wheels provide traction on uneven surfaces; nylon wheels suit smooth floors and lighter loads; metal wheels handle extreme conditions.
• Locking Mechanism: Dual locking secures both swivel and wheel for maximum stability; single locking secures only the wheel for moderate control.
• Mounting Type: Plate mounts distribute weight evenly; stem mounts fit into pre-drilled sockets on equipment.

Locking swivel castors are common on industrial carts, medical devices, food service trolleys, and mobile workstations where both mobility and secure positioning matter.

Heavy-Duty Locking Swivel Castors Options

Heavy-duty locking swivel castors are built for strength, durability, and smooth movement. Examples include:

• 2-inch Plate Caster Wheels: Dual locking brakes, 240kg load capacity; ideal for furniture and light industrial carts.
• 4-inch Heavy Duty Casters with Brake: Swivel plate casters with locking brakes, support up to 360kg; suitable for workbenches and heavy carts.
• 5-inch Heavy Duty Swivel Casters with Brake: Set with locking and non-locking nylon wheels, total load capacity 480kg; designed for industrial carts and toolboxes.

These castors use strong steel or alloy frames with quality wheels for durability and reliable performance. Consider your load, floor type, and locking needs when choosing castors.
