What is a twin-wheel caster?
Twin wheel casters are caster wheels that feature two wheels mounted on a central axis. Attaching these wheels through a mounting plate to your chosen furniture or equipment allows you to move them effortlessly without carrying loads and potentially ruining your surface floors.
What is the benefit of twin wheels?
Twin wheels have an advantage over single caster wheels. Some of the benefits you will get from these double-wheel casters are:
- Higher load capacity: Heavy equipment requires wheels with a higher load capacity, and two are definitely better than one in this case. With a double-wheel feature, the weight load will be evenly distributed to each wheel, allowing more stability and higher load capacity than single-wheel options.
- Ease of movement: Twin wheel casters offer a better feel and maneuverability, allowing for smooth movement and the inability to tip over.
- Less surface strain: The even weight distribution contributes to less wear and tear on the surface floor, even while moving heavy furniture and equipment.
What are the different types of casters?
Caster wheels come in different types that cater to particular applications. At Apollo Caster, we offer numerous types of casters for all your needs, including ball casters, bed rollers, low profile, business machine, dual wheel, flanged, leveling casters, kingpinless, spherical, spring loaded, stemless casters, stainless steel, colored casters, and twin wheel stem casters.
What size of twin wheel caster should I use?
Since twin wheel casters come in a variety of sizes, there are a few things you need to consider to find what fits your needs, like weight capacity, wheel diameter, mounting plate size, and purpose of application.
Smaller caster wheels are preferred for the control and stability of delicate equipment such as medical appliances, office chairs, or other pieces of specialty equipment. Meanwhile, larger caster wheels are preferred for higher load capacity and easy mobility for heavy industrial equipment or furniture.
It is also worth asking the experts from Apollo Caster if you are having trouble choosing which size you should get.
How much weight can twin caster wheels take?
Each set of twin caster wheels possesses a different weight capacity that’s determined by several factors, such as wheel diameter, thickness, height, and material. With the versatility of caster wheels in various industries, manufacturers design them in a wide range of shapes and sizes to consider varied needs. At Apollo Caster, you can find twin caster wheels with a weight capacity of up to 300 lbs.
