Choosing a Castor

Here are a few important factors to consider when choosing castor wheels:

• Application: Are there specific requirements or industry standards that need to be met? Our team are your castor experts and ensure you find the perfect solution for your application. With a wide range of standard options and custom solutions available, we can supply the right castor for your industry.
• Load Capacity: Heavier loads will require larger capacities, with wheels made from higher density materials. Our castors are available in capacities ranging from 28kg all the way up to 10 tonnes. To determine the capacity required, divide the weight you need to move by the number of castors. It’s important to include a buffer.
• Floor type: Wheels and castors perform differently depending on the floor surface they are used on. Our team can help select the perfect solution for your application.
• Ease of Rolling: Load, wheel diameter, wheel hardness, and floor surface can all affect the ease with which the castor will roll. Rolling resistance can be improved by selecting the largest suitable wheel diameter for your application.
• Climate and Environment: Temperature the castor will be exposed to, whether the area is wet, and harshness of the environment should be considered. Depending on these factors, a specialty castor may be required for your application.
