MetroMax i Stem Casters — Polymer and Resilient Options for Humid and Toxic Environments

MetroMax i Stem Casters are designed to enhance mobility for MetroMax shelving in environments where moisture and chemical exposure are a concern. Available in two configurations—standard polymer casters for lighter loads and a resilient variant with metal hubs for heavier duty use—the system offers reliable performance across challenging settings.

Features

• Two load options: standard polymer casters rated at 300 lb per caster; resilient casters rated at 800 lb per caster.
• Material design: polymer wheels with no exposed metal parts to resist corrosion in humid or toxic environments.
• Mounting: i Stem compatibility for seamless integration with MetroMax shelving systems.
• Finish and construction: resilient finish on the high-capacity variant, featuring metal hubs to support heavier loads.
• Weight: approximately 4 lb per caster.

Benefits

• Minimizes corrosion and contamination risk thanks to polymer construction with no exposed metal parts.
• Enables smooth, controlled movement of shelving and carts, even when load demands are high or environments are harsh.
• Offers a clear path to scale: use the 300 lb per caster polymer option for standard reconfigurations, or upgrade to the 800 lb resilient version for tougher applications.
• Simple installation and compatibility with existing MetroMax i Stem setups, allowing quick reconfiguration without specialized tools.

Ideal For

Lab and chemical storage areas, industrial workspaces, and other environments where humidity or chemical exposure could affect hardware. The polymer version is suitable for lighter, frequent moves, while the resilient variant provides extra durability for heavier loads.
