Co. had previously custom-engineered a new all-stainless inline caster for an aerospace part supplier, and has now made it available to other customers. These casters are suitable for a clean room environment, but have a carrying capacity of 15,500 pounds. The 10 1/8” tall and 21” long construction comes with two 8” diameter by 2.2” wide, double-flanged track wheels.

Because the application required the load to remain completely level despite floor irregularities, the inline wheels support each other with a pivot point in the center of the caster, so that when the front caster encounters irregularities, the back caster maintains level. These come in durable, high-grade 316L stainless steel for all major components, which means they’re resistant to corrosion and pitting and perform well under continuous use.
