Shock Absorbing Casters

Caster Concepts' popular shock absorbing casters have swivel sections that are constructed of high alloy steel and are precision machined for close tolerences and long life. These industrial casters feature legs of thick section plate steel. Integrally forged kingpins are available from 3/4" to 1-1/4" in diameter. In normal configurations, these swivel sections will carry 3 to 4 times their listed capacity.

Benefits of Shock Absorbing Casters

The high strength chrome vanadium springs provide longer life through constant flexing and compressing. The spring compression starts with as little as 25 pounds loading per caster resulting in cushioned loads and quiet empty returns. The long swivel lead reduces excessive shimmy and vibration while towing.

Special non-catalog sizes and designs are available. Swivel locks and face contact brakes are available. For more information, please contact the Caster Concepts' Team of Professionals.

Common Uses & Applications for Shock Absorbing Casters

Shock absorbing casters are ideal for jet engine dollies, aircraft jacks, in-plant trailers, trash gondolas, lift truck stabilizer casters, revolving signs and parade floats.
