Features

• Material options: resilient (black hard rubber), high modulus (black soft rubber), polyurethane (grey), and a polymer housing (all polymer, no metal).
• Load capacity: 800 lb per cart for resilient and high-modulus options; 1200 lb per cart for polyurethane and polymer housing.
• Construction: all-polymer housing across options for corrosion resistance and consistent, reliable rolling.
• Size and weight: 5 in height; 2.5 lb per caster.
• Finish: High Modulus option available in the lineup.
• Availability: casters sold individually; SKU 5MDA; Category: Metro Heavy-duty Stem Casters; polyurethane option is the catalog image reference.

Benefits

Match caster material to your cart and floor to optimize performance. Rubber options (resilient and high modulus) provide effective shock absorption on concrete and tile, helping protect loads and reduce operator effort during lengthy moves. For heavier carts, polyurethane and polymer housing deliver higher load capacity (up to 1200 lb per cart) without sacrificing maneuverability.

The all-polymer housing resists corrosion in humid or cleaned environments, reducing maintenance and extending service life. With a 5-inch height, these stem casters offer ample clearance to roll over thresholds and small obstacles, making them suitable for warehouses, maintenance departments, and industrial service carts. Sold individually, they enable precise, customized setup to meet your specific cart weight and floor conditions.
