Description
Product Overview
The 80mm Pressed Steel Swivel Castor is a robust, precision-engineered mobility component fitted with a grey cast iron wheel and a 4-hole top plate for secure, permanent mounting. Rated to a 120kg load capacity per castor, it is purpose-built for demanding environments where reliable, smooth movement is non-negotiable — including industrial workshops, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, hospitality trolleys, and heavy-duty commercial furniture.
Key Features
- 80mm Wheel Diameter — Navigates smoothly across hard floors, concrete, and uneven industrial surfaces.
- 120kg Load Capacity — Engineered to handle substantial loads with confidence and consistency.
- Full 360° Swivel Action — Enables effortless directional control and tight-space manoeuvrability.
- Grey Cast Iron Wheel — Delivers exceptional wear resistance and long-term durability under continuous use.
- Pressed Steel Housing — Zinc-plated for corrosion resistance, maintaining structural integrity in tough conditions.
- Ball Journal Bearing — Reduces rolling friction for smooth, low-effort movement even under load.
- 4-Hole Top Plate Fixing — Provides a stable, permanent mount compatible with a wide range of equipment frames.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the total height of this castor, and how does it affect equipment clearance?
The total castor height is 106mm, measured from the base of the wheel to the top of the mounting plate. This is the clearance height your equipment will be raised by when these castors are fitted. Always verify this measurement against your equipment's frame height and any doorway or racking clearance requirements before ordering.
How do I confirm the top plate will fit my existing equipment?
The top plate measures 100mm (length) x 85mm (width), with bolt hole centres at 60mm and 80mm and a hole diameter of 10mm. Before purchasing, measure the existing fixing points on your equipment and compare them to these dimensions to ensure compatibility. M8 or M10 bolts are typically used with this plate configuration.
Is a cast iron wheel suitable for the floor surfaces in my facility?
Grey cast iron wheels are best suited to hard, solid surfaces such as concrete, stone, and compacted earth floors. They offer outstanding durability and load-bearing performance but are not recommended for use on polished, delicate, or soft floor coverings, as the hard tread may cause surface marking. If floor protection is a priority, consider a rubber or polyurethane-wheeled alternative.
How many castors do I need, and what is the combined load capacity?
Most applications use a set of 4 castors. The combined maximum load for a set of 4 is rated at 360kg — calculated at 75% of the total single-castor capacity to account for real-world uneven load distribution. If your load approaches or exceeds this figure, we recommend selecting a castor with a higher individual load rating or consulting our team for guidance.
