Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity per castor?

The product states a *collective* load capacity of 1000KG for all four wheels. The individual capacity per castor is not explicitly detailed but is designed to contribute to this total. Ensure proper weight distribution.

Are screws or bolts included for mounting?

No, screws or bolts for mounting are not included. You will need to provide appropriate heavy-duty fasteners suitable for your specific application and the load being carried.

How do I install the brakes?

Two of the castors come with integrated brake mechanisms. There is no separate installation for the brakes themselves; they are part of the castor unit and are operated by a lever.

Can these castors be used outdoors?

While durable, these castors are best suited for indoor or protected outdoor environments. Prolonged exposure to harsh weather elements may affect their performance and longevity.

What type of flooring are these castors suitable for?

The durable rubber construction is designed to be mark-free and is suitable for a wide range of indoor flooring, including hardwood, laminate, tile, and concrete. They can also handle rougher surfaces with ease.

How do I maintain the swivel mechanism?

Regular cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended. For optimal performance, periodic lubrication of the swivel joint with a suitable grease can prevent stiffness and ensure smooth rotation.

Troubleshooting

Castors feel stiff or difficult to swivel.

Check for any debris or obstructions around the swivel mechanism. Clean thoroughly and apply a suitable lubricant to the swivel joint. Ensure mounting bolts are not overtightened and constricting the mechanism.

Wheels are not rolling smoothly.

Inspect the wheels for embedded debris or damage. Ensure the wheel bearings are clear and functioning. Clean the wheels and the area around the axle.

Brakes are not engaging or holding effectively.

Ensure the brake lever is fully engaged. Check the brake pad for wear or damage. The mounting surface must be perfectly level for the brakes to hold maximum load.

Excessive noise during movement.

While designed to be silent, extreme loads or rough surfaces can cause noise. Ensure the castors are securely attached and consider applying lubricant to the swivel. Check for any loose parts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Mounting Plate: Each castor features a top plate with pre-drilled holes. Ensure the surface you are attaching the castor to is strong enough to support the intended load.
  2. Fastening: Use appropriate heavy-duty bolts, nuts, and washers (not included) to securely fasten the mounting plate to your equipment or furniture. Ensure all four bolts per castor are tightened firmly.
  3. Orientation: For optimal stability, consider the placement of the braked castors, typically at the rear or sides of the item being moved.

Compatibility:

  • These castors are compatible with any flat surface sturdy enough to accommodate their mounting plates and the total weight load.
  • Ideal for wood, metal, or robust plastic structures.
  • Ensure the mounting surface can support the maximum collective weight of 1000KG.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Regularly wipe the wheels and swivel mechanisms with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
  • Lubrication: Periodically, a light application of lubricant (e.g., lithium grease) to the swivel mechanism can ensure continued smooth operation.
  • Inspection: Periodically inspect the mounting bolts and wheel integrity for any signs of wear or damage. Tighten any loose fasteners as needed.
