Cast Iron Rigid Caster 6" x 2" - 1,543 lb

This caster supports up to 1,543 lbs per wheel on smooth flat surfaces at walking speed. The 6" wheel diameter rolls over small floor imperfections and expansion joints more easily than 4" wheels. Use this size for heavy curing racks, material carts, and industrial dollies.

The 6" wheel rolls over floor joints, debris, and uneven surfaces that would stall a 4" wheel under heavy load. It also distributes the load over a larger contact patch, reducing floor damage on softer surfaces. The 6" size is the standard choice for medium to heavy industrial applications.

Cast iron casters work best on smooth concrete, sealed concrete, and steel floors common in manufacturing and powder coating shops. They will mark and damage softer surfaces like wood, vinyl, and epoxy coatings. For finished floors, rubber or polyurethane tread casters are a better choice.

Yes. Cast iron wheels handle the weight of loaded cure racks and resist the chemicals used in powder coating prep. The steel roller bearings and hardened raceways hold up under repeated use. For racks that enter the oven, verify that the caster temperature rating meets your cure temperature.
