FAQs

What is the load capacity of this castor?

Each Draper 100mm Swivel Castor with Brake has a load capacity of 80kg.

What type of floor surfaces are recommended for use?

The non-marking rubber tyres are suitable for most indoor floor surfaces including concrete, wood, linoleum, and tile.

How do I attach the castor?

The castor features a swivel plate with mounting holes. You will need to use appropriate screws or bolts (not included) to securely fasten the plate to a flat, sturdy surface.

Does this castor swivel?

Yes, it is a swivel castor, meaning it can rotate 360 degrees to allow for easy changes in direction.

How does the brake work?

The brake lever, when engaged, locks the wheel to prevent it from rotating and the castor from swiveling, thus securing the item in place.

Are screws or bolts included for mounting?

No, screws or bolts for mounting are not included with the castor. You will need to provide suitable fixings based on your mounting surface.

Can I use these castors outdoors?

While they can be used on some outdoor surfaces, the rubber tyres and metal components may be susceptible to wear and corrosion from prolonged exposure to weather elements. They are primarily designed for indoor use.

Troubleshooting

Castor is difficult to swivel

Check for any obstructions around the swivel plate or wheel. Ensure mounting screws are not overtightened, restricting movement. Clean and lubricate the swivel bearing.

Brake does not engage or hold effectively

Clean the brake lever and wheel tread from dirt or debris. Ensure the brake mechanism is properly aligned. If persistent, the castor may need replacement.

Castor wheel is not rotating freely

Inspect the wheel for foreign objects lodged in it. Remove any debris and ensure the axle is clear. If the wheel is damaged, replace the castor.

Castor makes excessive noise during movement

Clean the wheel and surrounding area. Check for wear on the rubber tyre. Lubrication of the swivel and wheel axle may help reduce noise.
