Load check
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.

Rubber tread · working temperature -20°C to +80°C

- Good grip on smooth floors
- Takes more effort to push than nylon under heavy loads
- Oils and solvents shorten tyre life
Details & FAQs
For trolleys and equipment that must move quietly, leave no marks on clean floors and then stay firmly in place, this 200mm braked castor is the largest wheel in this blue non-marking range and the easiest to push under heavy loads. It has a blue non-marking elastic rubber tyre on a black polypropylene centre running on a roller bearing, a zinc-plated pressed steel housing, a 140 x 110mm top plate and a foot-operated total lock brake that holds both the wheel and the swivel head. Each castor is rated to 400kg and stands 240mm tall. It suits hospital and laboratory trolleys, catering equipment, heavier retail and warehouse trolleys, and anywhere floors must be kept clean and unmarked.
Why it works
Blue non-marking elastic rubber tyre
The blue elastic rubber tyre is designed not to leave marks on floors, so it is widely used on hospital, laboratory, retail and food-area floors. The tread (hardness A70) absorbs bumps, grips well and runs quietly, and it copes with temperatures from -20°C to +80°C.
Large 200mm wheel on a roller bearing
The large wheel rolls easily over joints, thresholds and lift gaps, and runs on a roller bearing rather than a plain bore, so a loaded trolley takes less effort to start and keep moving, and the wheel wears more evenly over time.
Total lock brake – wheel and swivel held together
A standard wheel brake stops the wheel rolling but still lets the castor spin round. This castor's foot brake locks the wheel and the swivel head at the same time, so equipment stays exactly where you park it.
- Blue non-marking elastic rubber tyre, quiet running
- Total lock foot brake locks wheel and swivel together
- Roller bearing, 400kg per castor, 1,200kg for a set of four
- 140 x 110mm top plate, M10 fixings
- 240mm total height, 157mm swivel radius
Where it's used
Hospital, care home and laboratory trolleys, catering and food-preparation equipment, retail display and stock trolleys, clean-room and pharmaceutical carts, and warehouse and distribution trolleys. Suited to vinyl, tiles, sealed concrete, resin and other hard indoor floors where marking is not acceptable.
Choosing the right option
Choose blue non-marking rubber, as here, where floors must stay clean and quiet running matters; grey rubber is a lighter-duty alternative, and polyurethane suits heavier loads. Check you have a flat area at least 140 x 110mm under each corner for the plate. For brakes, most equipment has total lock castors on two corners and plain swivel castors on the other two; the matching unbraked 200mm blue non-marking swivel castor has the same height and plate, so a mixed set sits level. For the load, add up the weight of the item and everything on it and divide by three rather than four, because on an uneven floor one castor is often lifted; if the answer is over 400kg, choose a heavy-duty castor. Allow 157mm of swivel clearance around each castor.
Installation, use and care
Hold the plate flat against the base and fix it through all four holes with M10 bolts and nuts. Fixings are not included. Fit the castor so the brake pedal faces outwards where your foot can reach it. Check the fixings after the first few weeks, keep the wheel and brake clear of threads and debris, and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Keep the rubber tyre away from oils and solvents. Bring equipment to rest before applying the brake.
Frequently asked questions
Will the blue wheel mark my floor?
No. The blue elastic rubber tyre is a non-marking compound, chosen for hospital, laboratory and retail floors where marks are not acceptable.
What does "total lock" mean?
The foot brake locks both the wheel and the swivel head, so the castor can neither roll nor spin round.
What size bolts do I need?
The plate holes are 10mm, so use M10 bolts and nuts. Fixings are not supplied.
What is the load capacity?
Each castor is rated to 400kg. A set of four is rated to 1,200kg, because the load is calculated on three castors to allow for uneven floors.
