Premium 160mm Braked Swivel Bolt Hole Castor
Anti-Static Polyurethane Tyre with Total-Lock Brake System
Engineering Excellence in Mobility Hardware
Engineered for demanding industrial, commercial, and institutional environments, this 160mm braked swivel castor combines precision German-style bearing technology with advanced anti-static polyurethane tread. The result is a mobility solution that protects sensitive flooring, dissipates static charge, and delivers whisper-quiet operation under loads up to 400kg.
Key Performance Features
- Anti-Static Polyurethane Tyre: Grey non-marking tread compound prevents static build-up and protects polished floors, epoxy coatings, and vinyl surfaces
- Total-Lock Brake System: Simultaneous wheel and swivel lock ensures absolute stability during loading, maintenance, or stationary operations
- Precision Swivel Mechanism: Ball-bearing swivel head with sealed race delivers 360° rotation with minimal effort and extended service life
- Bolt Hole Mounting: Robust four-hole fixing plate (typically 105×85mm) provides secure attachment to equipment frames and trolley bases
- Nylon Centre Hub: Lightweight, corrosion-resistant wheel centre reduces overall castor weight while maintaining structural integrity
- 400kg Load Rating: Tested and certified for heavy-duty applications including industrial carts, material handling equipment, and institutional furniture

Why Choose Anti-Static Polyurethane?
Polyurethane castors represent the premium choice for environments demanding both performance and floor protection. Unlike rubber wheels that can leave marks or hard plastic wheels that transmit shock and noise, polyurethane delivers:
- Superior Floor Protection: Non-marking grey compound won't scuff, streak, or damage polished concrete, tile, vinyl, or epoxy surfaces
- Static Dissipation: Anti-static formulation safely dissipates electrostatic charge, protecting sensitive electronics and preventing dust attraction
- Quiet Operation: Resilient tread absorbs vibration and reduces rolling noise compared to hard plastic or metal wheels
- Chemical Resistance: Polyurethane resists oils, solvents, and most industrial chemicals better than rubber alternatives
- Extended Service Life: Exceptional abrasion resistance and load-bearing properties ensure years of reliable service
- Low Rolling Resistance: Smooth, consistent roll reduces operator fatigue and improves maneuverability
Installation & Mounting Guidance
Bolt Hole Mounting: This castor features a four-hole fixing plate designed for permanent attachment to equipment frames, trolley bases, or custom fabrications. Ensure mounting surface is flat, rigid, and capable of supporting the distributed load.
Recommended Fasteners: Use grade 8.8 or higher bolts with flat washers and lock washers or thread-locking compound. Torque fasteners evenly to manufacturer specifications.
Load Distribution: For optimal performance and longevity, distribute total equipment weight evenly across all castors. Avoid exceeding the 400kg per-castor rating.
Brake Positioning: When installing multiple braked castors, position brakes for convenient operator access. Consider diagonal brake placement for maximum stability.
Maintenance & Care
- Inspect castors regularly for tyre wear, bearing play, and brake function
- Clean wheels and swivel mechanism periodically to remove debris and contaminants
- Lubricate swivel bearing annually with light machine oil or bearing grease
- Check mounting bolts for tightness; re-torque as needed
- Replace castors when tyre shows significant wear or bearing develops excessive play
- Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, corrosive chemicals, or abrasive environments beyond specification
Quality & Compliance
Manufactured to exacting standards and tested for load capacity, brake performance, and durability. Suitable for use in commercial and light industrial applications. Anti-static properties meet typical ESD requirements for electronics manufacturing and sensitive environments.
Premium Mobility Hardware for Professional Applications
Whether you're outfitting a new fleet of industrial trolleys, upgrading existing equipment, or building custom material handling solutions, this 160mm braked swivel castor delivers the performance, reliability, and floor protection your operation demands.
