sample image of each...
- Nylon: Injected nylon offers great
strength, shock absorption and resistance to
corrosion. Nylon casters don't scratch or rust
and their appearance doesn't deteriorate with
age.
Bright Zinc Plating: A blue zinc-chromate
plating on steel casters offers a long lasting,
bright and attractive finish.
Yellow Zinc Plating: Yellow zinc
plating is an additional bath over the standard
blue zinc-chromate. It offers additional
resistance to corrosion, without adding significantly
to the expense.
Powder Coating: Many casters in
this catalog can be powder coated, allowing
the caster to be color matched to your specifications.
Powder coating is an inert, strong protective
finish that resists scratching and corrosion.
Chrome Plating: Chrome plated steel
casters offer increased resistance to corrosion
over the zinc plating...with a much shinier
finish.
- Stainless
Steel: Stainless
steel offers
the greatest
resistance to
corrosion of
all the metals
used to produce
casters. All
stainless casters
in this catalog
are made of Type
304 polished-stainless
steel, giving
a very attractive
appearance. Many
stainless steel
casters in this
catalog are non-magnetic
and ideal for
use in magnetic
resonance imaging
(MRI) applications.

Thread Guards: Thread guards are discs
between the wheel and caster fork that prevent
thread, string, hair and other debris from entering
and clogging the wheel bearing. Thread guards
enable the wheel to revolve freely, while prolonging
the life of the tire tread and wheel bearings.
Thread guards are standard on many casters shown
in this catalog, and can be special ordered on
other casters.
