Kingpinless Casters

Kingpinless Casters

Kingpinless casters are suitable for any type of power-towed applications where impact and shock loading can cause failure in conventional king bolt and nut swivel casters.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the advantages of Albion's dual wheel casters?

Albion's dual wheel casters distribute weight more evenly to reduce scrubbing when changing directions. Their design allows greater load capacity, as the extra wheel provides additional support & stability. They are perfect for use in office chairs, file cabinets and hospital beds.

What is the best wheel to use on rough floors?

Firstly, larger wheels allow easy travel over rough floors or outdoor surfaces. Second, resilient tire material, like polyurethane or mould-on rubber, should be used that will flex, absorb shock and return to its normal shape when the operation is complete.

What are precision sealed ball bearings?

These ball bearings use small steel balls to reduce friction between moving parts and are sealed to protect the balls & inner compartments from dirt, dust and other contaminants.

What is the function of a kingpin rim?

Kingpin casters feature a metal ring, called a rim, that surrounds the swivel bearing and provides extra support & stability to the wheel. It also protects the swivel bearing from impact and damage caused by heavy loads, high speeds and frequent turns.
