Replacing an old castor? Measure between the centres of two fixing holes along the long edge, then across the short edge, and compare with the hole centres above. Allow the swivel radius as clear space around each castor so it can turn freely.

Load check

Enter the weight of the item plus its heaviest load. This castor is rated 65kg each.

How we work it out: on a real floor one castor is often carrying little or nothing, so we share the weight across one fewer castor than you fit (with 3 castors, across all 3). Tick the box to add a 30% margin for rough use.

  • Hard-wearing and easy to wipe clean
  • Best on smooth concrete and hard floors
  • Noisier than rubber or polyurethane
  • Hard tread can mark or damage soft and delicate floors

Technical Specifications

* Maximum load for a set of 4 castors is calculated at 75% of combined individual ratings to account for uneven weight distribution.

Frequently Asked Questions

What floor surfaces is this castor suitable for?
The white nylon wheel is best suited to smooth, hard floor surfaces such as concrete, tile, vinyl, laminate, and sealed timber. It is not recommended for deep-pile carpet or heavily textured outdoor surfaces, where a rubber or polyurethane wheel would be more appropriate.
How does the brake mechanism work?
The castor features an integrated foot-operated brake. Pressing the brake lever down with your foot locks the wheel in place, preventing rotation and swivel movement. Lifting the lever releases the brake and restores full mobility. No tools are required to operate it.
How many castors do I need, and what is the combined load capacity?
Most applications use a set of 4 castors. Each castor is rated to 65kg individually; however, the recommended maximum load for a set of 4 is 195kg — calculated at 75% of the combined total to account for uneven weight distribution during movement. For loads approaching this limit, we recommend verifying the weight distribution of your specific application.
What are the mounting hole dimensions, and how do I fit this castor?
The top plate measures 60mm x 60mm with hole centres of 48mm x 38mm across 4 bolt holes. Fitting requires four appropriately sized bolts (not included) passed through the plate holes and secured into the base of your equipment. Ensure the mounting surface is flat and structurally sound to achieve the rated load capacity.
