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
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.

- Cushions the load and soaks up vibration

Details & FAQs
Heavy Duty Gate Castor
This 100mm heavy duty swivel gate castor supports and guides a gate as it opens and closes, taking up to 70kg off the hinges. It runs on a black rubber wheel with a cast iron centre and bolts to the gate with a 165 x 41mm mounting plate, making it a simple upgrade for driveway, garden, field and yard gates that drag or sag.
The swivel head lets the wheel follow the swing of the gate and change direction easily, while the rubber tread rolls steadily over the ground. With a total castor height of 375mm and 242mm from the ground to the lower plate bolt hole, it suits gates with a good gap underneath.
