Value Collection GMC-SH-0017 Rigid Caster 4 in 1000 Lb

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION GMC-SH-0017 is a rigid top plate caster built for stationary-direction rolling loads in demanding general-purpose applications. The wheel is constructed from semi-steel and measures 4 inches in diameter with a 2-inch width, giving it a stable contact footprint suited to hard floor surfaces. A roller bearing supports smooth rotation under load, and the stamp-formed frame construction keeps the assembly rigid under sustained weight. The powder-coated finish adds basic corrosion resistance. This caster carries a rated load capacity of 1,000 pounds and stands 5.625 inches overall height, making it a straightforward fit for carts, equipment bases, and industrial platforms.

This caster is intended for general-purpose industrial and commercial use where a fixed rolling direction is required. The rigid style does not swivel, so it is typically paired with swivel casters on the same platform to allow directional control. Common applications include shop carts, material handling equipment, and stationary industrial machinery bases on smooth concrete or hard flooring. The top plate mount style allows direct bolting to a flat frame or deck surface using the 4.5 x 6.25 inch plate footprint.

Key Features

• Semi-steel wheel construction for durability on hard floors under heavy loads
• Roller bearing for reduced rolling resistance at rated capacity
• Stamp-formed rigid frame for fixed-direction travel
• Powder-coated finish for basic corrosion and abrasion resistance
• Top plate mount with 4.5 x 6.25 inch plate for direct frame bolting
• 1,000 lb rated load capacity at 5.625 inches overall height

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose rigid top plate caster for use on carts, equipment frames, and industrial platforms requiring fixed-direction wheel movement on hard floor surfaces.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a maintenance technician or equipment fabricator using standard hand tools. Power down or de-energize any associated equipment before mounting. Secure the top plate to a flat, structurally sound surface using appropriately rated fasteners through all plate holes to achieve the full rated load capacity. Do not exceed the 1,000 lb rated capacity per caster, and account for dynamic load factors when calculating total caster requirements for a given platform.
