3-1/2" Swivel Caster With Cast Wheel
Features
• Per-unit rating: 500 lb per-unit load capacity for component-level planning and selection of caster configurations.
• Calculation: use Total capacity = 500 lb x number of units when determining required caster count for system loads.
• Distribute loads: arrange heavy items across multiple casters to reduce load per unit and improve service life.
• Application: use on carts, dollies and equipment platforms for material handling tasks requiring component-level load control.
• Verification: apply the per-unit rating when sizing caster configurations and confirm total system capacity prior to use.
• Planning: include per-unit ratings in design reviews to ensure balanced load distribution and operational reliability.

Description
500 lb per-unit caster provides a defined component-level rating to support load planning and caster selection in material handling environments. Use the caster on carts, dollies and equipment platforms where consistent per-unit ratings simplify load distribution and selection. Total capacity = 500 lb x number of units. Use this calculation when verifying that the selected number of casters meets system-level requirements before deployment. Distribute heavy loads across multiple units to reduce strain on individual casters and to support predictable system behavior. Apply the per-unit rating when sizing caster configurations and when calculating system-level capacity. During planning, account for uneven loading and verify that the planned caster count yields sufficient margin for expected operating conditions. Provide the per-unit rating to maintenance, operations and design teams to support routine inspection, replacement planning and accurate documentation of component-level capacity for carts, dollies and equipment platforms.
