Frequently Asked Questions
What surfaces are these swivel castors suitable for?
These castors are designed for use on smooth, hard floor surfaces including concrete, tile, laminate, and sealed timber. The polypropylene wheel provides reliable rolling performance on flat, indoor surfaces. They are not recommended for outdoor use, rough terrain, or heavily textured flooring where a rubber-tyred castor would be more appropriate.
How do I know if the top plate will fit my furniture or equipment?
The top plate measures 60mm x 60mm with hole centres of 48mm x 38mm. Before purchasing, measure the existing fixing points on your furniture or equipment and compare them against these dimensions. The 4-hole bolt pattern is a widely used standard, compatible with many trolleys, shelving units, and furniture frames.
Can I use these castors on a trolley or cart that carries 200kg?
Each castor is rated to a maximum of 65kg individually. A set of four provides a combined maximum capacity of 195kg under evenly distributed load conditions. For loads approaching or exceeding 200kg, we recommend selecting a castor with a higher individual load rating to ensure a safe margin above the working load.
Do these castors require any maintenance or lubrication?
No. The plain bearing design is maintenance-free under normal operating conditions. Periodically check that the fixing bolts remain tight and inspect the wheel for any signs of wear or debris build-up, particularly if used in environments where dust or fine particles are present. Clean the wheel surface as needed to maintain smooth rolling performance.
