Featuring sealed Easy-Roll pedestal precision ball bearings, up to 4× longer wheel life than conventional polyurethane wheels, heavy-duty 1/4" thick steel construction, dual ball bearing swivel raceways with a grease zerk, a standard 4"×4-1/2" top plate, and a 3-year warranty, it's built to perform in manufacturing, warehousing, healthcare, food service, maintenance, and other demanding industrial applications. The non-marking polyurethane tread helps protect finished floors while reducing push and pull forces, making it a versatile, economical choice wherever easier mobility, secure positioning, and long service life are priorities.
Benefits of the Colson Swivel Rig with Side Brake
Swivel casters with brakes combine smooth maneuverability with the ability to securely hold carts and equipment in place during loading, unloading, assembly, or storage. This rugged Colson swivel rig features dual ball bearing swivel raceways for smooth steering, heavy-duty 1/4" thick steel construction, an oversized 3/4" kingpin, and an easy-to-engage side-activated tread lock brake. According to ANSI ICWM testing conducted by Colson, the larger 3/4" kingpin delivers up to 40% longer service life than traditional 5/8" kingpin designs commonly found on imported and many competitive industrial casters. The side-activated tread lock brake securely locks the wheel to help prevent unwanted movement while remaining quick and easy to engage and release. The result is smoother maneuverability, greater durability, dependable long-term performance, and secure braking when needed.
