Swivel On Swivel Caster

SoS reduces the amount of force needed to turn and maneuver a cart, and to start rolling a cart when all the wheels are not parallel.

Caster Concepts Inc. (Albion, MI) unveiled the Swivel on Swivel (SoS) Caster that reduces operator fatigue through the unique design that features two kingpinless, maintenance free swivel section rigs.

The Swivel on Swivel Caster is the latest addition to the Caster Concepts line of ergonomic products designed to reduce the risk of workplace injuries, while increasing productivity and efficiency. SoS reduces the amount of force needed to turn and maneuver a cart, and to start rolling a cart when all the wheels are not parallel.

Caster Concepts’ field tests determined that the SoS Caster reduces operator push force by almost 40 percent compared to conventional swivel section rigs. By reducing the push force, the caster will help reduce the risk of injuries from over-exertion due to pushing and pulling.
