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.
Floors & use
Rubber tread
- Cushions the load and soaks up vibration
- Quiet on most surfaces
- Copes with uneven floors, thresholds and outdoor use
- Good grip on smooth floors
- Takes more effort to push than nylon under heavy loads
- Oils and solvents shorten tyre life
Details & FAQs
Light Duty Gate Castor
This 100mm swivel gate castor supports and guides a gate while it opens and closes. It bolts to the side of the gate with a 100mm x 25mm bracket plate, and runs on a black rubber wheel with a polypropylene centre rated at 60kg. It takes the weight off the hinges and helps stop a gate from dropping or dragging on the ground.
The wheel swivels freely so it follows the gate's swing, and the rubber tread rolls quietly over paths, paving and driveways. The total castor height is 280mm, with 195mm from the ground to the lower bolt hole, so you can check it suits the gap under your gate before ordering.
