Value Collection GMC-SH-0073 Swivel Top Plate Caster

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION GMC-SH-0073 is a swivel top plate caster built for heavy-duty material handling applications. It rolls on a 5-inch diameter phenolic wheel that is 2 inches wide and supports up to 1,000 pounds of load capacity. The overall assembled height is 6.5 inches. A roller bearing provides smooth, consistent rolling under load, and the stamp-formed steel construction gives the yoke and plate assembly the structural rigidity needed for sustained use on shop floors, carts, and industrial equipment. The zinc finish on both the wheel and hardware resists light corrosion in typical indoor environments. Licensed tradespeople and facilities maintenance technicians commonly install this type of caster on mobile workstations, utility carts, and equipment bases.

This caster is suited for material handling environments where a non-marking or hard-surface wheel is acceptable. The phenolic wheel handles smooth concrete and hard floor surfaces well and is commonly found on warehouse carts, assembly line equipment, and industrial racks. The top plate mount makes it straightforward to bolt onto flat equipment frames without welding or special adapters. The swivel action allows full 360-degree directional movement, which improves maneuverability on tight runs and crowded floor layouts.

Key Features

• 1,000 lb load capacity per caster for demanding material handling use
• 5-inch diameter phenolic wheel with 2-inch width for stable rolling on hard surfaces
• Roller bearing for smooth, low-resistance swivel movement under load
• Stamp-formed steel yoke construction for durability and consistent geometry
• Zinc finish on wheel and hardware for corrosion resistance in indoor environments
• 4 x 4.5 inch top plate mounts directly to flat equipment frames with standard hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a top-plate-mount swivel caster for material handling equipment, carts, racks, and industrial platforms requiring a phenolic wheel with roller bearing at 1,000 lb capacity per caster.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians or millwrights using standard hand tools. Secure the top plate to the equipment frame using appropriately rated fasteners through all four plate mounting holes to achieve full rated load capacity. Ensure the mounting surface is flat and structurally sound before fastening. Do not exceed the rated load capacity of 1,000 pounds per caster.
