rodfor medical equipmentwith brake

Definition
A caster is a mechanical component consisting of a wheel mounted in a yoke, combined with a fixing system (plate, central hole, stem or sleeve) that allows mounting under a support. It provides mobility to equipment or loads by transforming translational movement into wheel rotation, reducing the effort required for movement.

Materials

• Yoke in yellow dichromated steel.
• Swivel on precision ball bearings.
• Cover in nylon.
• Wheel core in polyamide.
• Tread in polyurethane, hardness 42° Shore D.
• Precision ball bearings.

Version
Mounting type: stem. Available in 3 versions:

• Without brake.
• With 2-function brake (total lock or free).
• With 3-function brake (total lock, free and directional lock).

Dimensional range

• Wheel diameter (d1): 125 to 200 mm.
• Tread width (l2): 32 or 35 mm.
• Offset (l1): 35 to 60 mm.
• Nominal load: 150 kg.

Use
