Optimize the mobility and stability of your industrial equipment with our high-performance leveling swivel caster. Specifically designed for demanding environments, it allows you to easily move your heaviest technical machines and then immobilize them perfectly stable in record time.
Thanks to its retractable rubber pad system activated by an integrated ratchet, you can switch from mobile equipment to a fixed and secure workstation effortlessly and without complex tools.
- Exceptional operator time saving: Less than a minute is needed to raise or lower the 4 casters of a support. A valuable asset for the productivity and comfort of your teams.
- Ergonomic ratchet system: No more hard-to-reach knobs. The integrated ratchet lever allows you to raise or lower the pad with simple pumping motions.
- Maximum stability and safety: In the lowered position, the thick rubber pad absorbs vibrations and prevents slipping.
- Optimized ground clearance: The pad only lifts the support by 5 mm in actual use. This is the ideal height to firmly block the machine while maintaining a low center of gravity for maximum safety. Once the pad is raised to the high position, there will be a 15mm gap between the ground and the bottom of the pad.
- Ultra-Robust design: Equipped with a high-strength nylon wheel and a reinforced body, it supports unit loads of up to 750 kg.
Instructions & Operation
The use of the caster is intuitive and ultra-fast:
- To lower the pad (Secure the machine): Position the ratchet to the right and perform a back-and-forth (pumping) motion until the rubber pad lifts the wheel about 5 mm off the ground.
- To raise the pad (Move the machine): Position the ratchet to the left and pump to retract the pad. The wheel then resumes contact with the ground.
- Easy direction reversal: To switch between raising and lowering, simply pull or push the small selection button located on the side of the ratchet (indicated by the threading direction markings).
- Heavy Load Tip: You can insert a screwdriver or a 6 mm metal rod into the hole provided at the end of the ratchet to increase the lever arm and reduce the pumping effort.
(Visual note: In the presentation photos, the pad is shown in the fully lowered position to illustrate the range of the mechanism. In actual use conditions, a lift of 5 mm of the wheel is more than enough to stabilize your machine).
