Industrial Castors

Industrial castors are wheel-and-bracket assemblies that let trolleys, transport frames and equipment move under load. Choose them by the complete working conditions: supported weight, floor, mounting space, steering and braking. Taishan supplies several wheel materials and configurations; the specification row for your chosen code determines its dimensions and catalogue load.

Industrial castors are wheel-and-bracket assemblies that let trolleys, transport frames and equipment move under load. Choose them by the complete working conditions: supported weight, floor, mounting space, steering and braking. Taishan supplies several wheel materials and configurations; the specification row for your chosen code determines its dimensions and catalogue load.

Choose industrial castors for the actual route

The best starting point is the route a loaded trolley will travel. A smooth warehouse aisle, a threshold between rooms and a rough loading area create different demands. Record joints, debris, turning space and how often the equipment moves before comparing wheel materials. A castor that fits the mounting plate can still be unsuitable for the floor or operating conditions.

A practical selection sequence

  1. Record equipment mass plus maximum payload, castor layout and uneven loading.
  2. Measure wheel clearance, overall height, plate size and bolt-hole centres.
  3. Choose steering and parking functions from the configurations listed for the series.
  4. Compare exact code rows and send the duty cycle, quantity and destination with your enquiry.

Specify the movement and stopping requirements separately

Swivel and fixed castors affect steering; brakes and directional locks perform different control functions. Check which movement a particular brake locks and whether it can be reached when the trolley is loaded. A parking brake must not be assumed to provide controlled braking while equipment is moving.

Practical checks

Pro tip: Measure bolt-hole centres separately from the outside plate dimensions. Similar-looking plates are not automatically interchangeable.

Pro tip: Test a loaded sample on the real route. An empty trolley test does not establish pushing effort or obstacle performance.
