28AX08228S01FBK is a 8" x 2" wide wheel brake caster with a Maroon MAX-Efficiency Wheel and 4-1/2" x 4'' top plate designed and constructed for highly ergonomic and quiet operation. Featuring a USA-made rig with a sealed-precision-ball-bearing raceway and extended lead, this caster provides effortless mobility and is extremely quiet, providing a safer working environment for your employees. The caster requires no maintenance for life, featuring sealed precision ball bearings in wheel and swivel section (for swivel models). 1/4" steel construction with fully welded legs (welded inside and outside to yoke base) allow these highly ergonomic casters to perform at higher load capacities than traditional casters, even with the extended lead – which helps smoothly and easily align the casters when turning while also reducing unwanted chatter from towed or faster moving equipment. The advanced polyurethane on aluminum MAX-Efficiency (85A durometer) wheel provides best-in-class ergonomic advantages and durability – while also handling high-load capacities and debris rejection. The wheel is truly a quiet workhorse, and even features uniquely designed self-retaining top-hats that prevent hundreds of thousands of zip ties from being thrown away each year. The included face brake provides easy to engage positive braking action against the wheel face, ensuring a solid lock. This maintenance-free and ergonomic series also features:
• Maintenance Free: Maintenance free swivel section. No lubrication ever needed
• Ergonomic Extended Lead: Extended lead is standard, improving ergonomics, reducing push / pull force
• Top Plate & Yoke Base: Cold formed from ¼" steel plate. Yoke base is notched for field installable 4-position swivel lock
• Legs: 1/4" steel, formed to increase strength and welded on inside and outside of yoke base
• Finish: All parts, except wheel, are zinc plated
• Axle: 1/2" diameter solid axle with lock nut
