Single-Flange Track-Wheel Plate Caster MPN:R-EHD-FT5FH

Extra-heavy-duty single-flange track-wheel plate casters each have one flange that guides the caster's wheel along a flat track or rail and ensures the wheel maintains contact with it. Also known as L-shaped face casters, single-flange track-wheel casters create less friction between the wheel and the track or rail than dual-flange casters. These extra-heavy-duty casters are made from either forged steel or iron and have precision tapered bearings. They can bear more weight and withstand more shock and impact than medium-duty track-wheel casters. These casters mount onto industrial vehicles and other heavy equipment in manufacturing plants, off-shore loading operations, mines, forestry applications, and other industrial settings. They provide precise control over the equipment's movement and alignment as it rolls along a track or rail.

Track-wheel plate casters have wheels that fit into compatible tracks or rails. They mount to containers, racks, carts, and other equipment to provide precise control over movement and alignment when moving the equipment between two locations, such as from one machine to another, into and out of an oven, or between points on an assembly line. These casters are used in settings that require tightly controlled movement of large, heavy equipment along a specific path, such as foundries, manufacturing plants, and mines. Each caster has a mounting plate that attaches to the equipment, and the casters allow the equipment to roll along a track or rail. The casters come in swivel and rigid versions. Swivel casters can rotate 360°, allowing equipment to change directions while rolling. Rigid casters roll in a straight line. Two rigid plate casters are often paired with two swivel casters so the equipment can both maneuver around curves and obstacles and maintain a straight course.
