This guide is for anyone needing to add stable, high-capacity mobility to furniture or equipment. The Parnells 300 series fixed castor offers a robust solution with a 120kg weight capacity per castor, ensuring secure movement for heavy loads. A potential consideration is that these are fixed castors, meaning they only allow for straight-line movement.

The total weight capacity for the set of 4 castors is 480kg, with each individual castor rated for 120kg.
No, these are fixed castors and only allow for straight-line movement. They do not swivel.
The wheels are made of 80mm white polypropylene and are designed to be non-marking.
The top plate measures 100mm x 80mm, with hole centres spaced at 80mm x 60mm.
The overall height from the base of the castor to the top of the wheel is 112mm.
While durable, it is recommended to use these castors in protected environments. Prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions may affect their longevity.
Check the wheel for any debris, thread, or material caught in the axle or on the wheel surface. Clean thoroughly. Ensure the wheel bearing is not damaged.
Verify that the castor is securely bolted to the surface. Ensure the mounting plate is flat against the surface and all screws are tightened evenly. Check that the wheel is not damaged or warped.
Although designed to be non-marking, very heavy loads or specific floor types could still show faint marks. Ensure the wheels are clean and free from grit. If marks persist, consider the floor type's compatibility with polypropylene.
Setup: These castors feature a top plate measuring 100mm x 80mm, with pre-drilled hole centres at 80mm x 60mm. Ensure you have appropriate screws or bolts suitable for your application and the material you are attaching the castors to. Mount securely, ensuring all four mounting holes are used for maximum stability and weight distribution.
Compatibility: Compatible with most solid surfaces where straight-line movement is desired. The polypropylene wheels are suitable for workshop floors, concrete, and other hard surfaces. They are best suited for static or infrequently moved heavy items.
Care: Periodically check the castor wheels for any debris or obstructions. Clean the wheels with a damp cloth if they become dirty. Inspect the mounting bolts and plate for any signs of wear or loosening, tightening as necessary.
