There are other factors to consider when choosing a  shock absorbing caster , such as how the springs are positioned. Most shock absorbing casters use a clam shell design for the legs and place a spring in between to keep the clam shell from closing. This design allows for significant variation in cargo load weights and a lower overall height, when compared to other shock absorbing casters. However, when the cart has no load, the springs have zero deflection, if carts are transported empty, then they are likely to have significant vibration when encountering an obstruction, and potentially create noise. If the casters are consistently carrying the same amount of weight, then vertical mounted spring (VMS) casters may be the right choice VMS casters, as the name implies, feature springs mounted vertically that are retained on a rod with threaded ends. The benefit of this design is that their will be no deflection of the springs when loaded with the rated load capacity. VMS c...

Shock absorbing casters  offer many benefits, including Protecting cargo from damage Reducing noise due to vibration Easier to roll than conventional casters when the flooring is cracked, uneven or encountering obstructions like thresholds Reduces risk of damage to flooring However, not all  shock absorbing casters  actually create a benefit.Shock absorbing casters are usually spring loaded, and those springs deflect when pressure is applied to them. If the caster uses the wrong springs, it could potentially do more harm than good. If the springs are too firm, they could actually cause more vibration and potentially noise and damage to contents. If the springs are not firm enough, it would be like there is no shock absorption at all. Therefore, it is very important to provide an accurate weight for the load. Exceeding the rated capacity on most spring loaded casters could render them useless, and to light of a load, could create excessive vibrat...

There are several different types of  light caster wheel , different sizes, colors and styles. The most common type of chair caster is the twin wheel hooded caster, (Pictured right). The stem on this caster is a grip ring stem 7/16" wide or thick by 7/8" tall and has 50mm wheels (2"). Made out of black nylon. This style caster comes on most new office and desk chairs and for the most part is adequate for the job. Our company is  stem swivel caster manufacturer  in china, here I want to take you visit our factory from these pictures as followings:

Caster and wheels are often categorized by their weight handling ability, these categories are simply "Light Duty, Medium Duty, Heavy Duty and Super Duty. To lessen confusion we will define these caster categories to better help you find what you are looking for. Light Duty Casters : Light Duty, Dolly Caster, XS Rubber wheel, rigidThe light duty category of casters and wheels specifications are as follows. Wheel size; diameter of the wheel is usually between 2" and 5" with a tread width of 7/8" to 1-1/2". The load capacity of Light duty casters is up to roughly 400lbs per caster. So as you can see the "Light duty" can still be very strong and substantial. Typical applications for Light Duty stem or plate mount casters in swivel or rigid would be: Medical equipment, dollies, office chairs, computer carts, Displays and fixtures, Rubbermaid carts and mop buckets, etc. Any cart that has 4 casters and is under 1200lb would qualify as light dut...

PU tire casters  are a popular wheel tread for use on industrial wheels, whether it is in a caster application or drive wheel applications. 1. Noise Reduction Polyurethane tire casters are a popular choice in industrial applications because of their quietness in operation when compared to harder wheels such as steel or cast iron. The polyurethane acts as a shock absorber and helps to cushion the ride and absorb bumps from uneven terrain. The noise levels can be reduced dramatically when using polyurethane instead of steel or cast iron wheels, which can help protect your employees hearing. 2. Load Bearing Capability Polyurethane tires are also often utilized for their load bearing capacity when compared to rubber. Polyurethane can provide a greater load bearing capacity while still providing the benefits of a rubber tread, such as noise reduction, shock absorption, and floor protection. 3. Coefficient of Friction Another benefit to polyurethane tires in industrial...

When looking at the ergonomic performance of an  industrial caster , there are typically two main areas that have the most impact: push/pull forces, which is the force needed to start and continue moving a cart; and swivelling force, which is the force needed to swivel out a caster to move in a new direction. To have an ergonomically sound caster, these forces need to be reduced so the user can move the material handling cart more easily. With easier movement of the cart, risk of injury to the user is reduced. Caster Swivelling Force Swivelling force refers to the force required to swivel the wheel. Swivelling force is highest when moving the caster wheels from a direction 90 degrees from their current position. Since this is the highest force, by reducing it, the overall ergonomic performance of the caster will increase significantly. Learn more  stem swivel caster  via  ytcaster.com .

Damping  industrial casters  choice excellent shock resistance spring, It's good turning and mechanical performance can avoid damage when wheels work on uneven ground wheels, however this can only reduce the damage of industrial casters. While industrial casters wear can not be avoided, in order to improve the service life of industrial casters, you only pay attention to the maintenance of industrial casters in everyday use. 1. periodic lubrication each component of industrial casters, Reduce damping and friction loss due to reduced service life of industrial casters ,improving the damping effect of industrial casters use . 2. When maintenance industrial shock absorb casters pay attention to whether brackets and fasteners operation properly,guarantee industrial casters does not affect the flexibility and shock stability, to ensure that their work normally. 3. Check the condition of elastic damping suitability of industrial casters ,clear the industrial casters ret...

Shock Absorber Casters  are Spring Loaded and designed to absorb shocks and minimize the impact to the cart, resulting in smoother movement, reduced risk of damage and less noise. Shock absorbing casters are ideal for applications where surfaces are not even or flooring has damage or debris. They are also great for applications where the load may be fragile or highly reactive to vibration, such as small parts or glass. However, to achieve these benefits the shock absorbing casters must have the right springs to achieve optimal spring deflection. There is a science to determining proper deflection, the wrong shock absorbing caster can actually do more harm than good. If the spring constant is too high, it could essentially be the same as not having a spring at all. If the spring constant is too low, it could extend the impact of the shock, and continue to vibrate excessively. Rest assured, our engineers are experts in the science of determining the right spring and caster c...

Today,the caster and wheels market is highly competitive. There are also have large number of  caster and wheel manufacturers . We think the caster company must be focus on quality and specifications development. Why? First different casters size and specifications are have different purpose. Caster wheels size and structure determines the load weight. In order to meet customers more option and catch more client's interesting, we need manufacturer different size and specifications caster wheels. At the same time, the casters quality must have guaranteed. Which can build long business relation with client. Then we need ensure the wheel material,and wheel frame design. To make the casters suit for variety environment. Such as  industrial caster wheels , hospital caster wheels, hard wood floor casters.
