Value Collection GMC-SH-0083 Swivel Caster 1000 Lb Phenolic

Product Description

The Value Collection GMC-SH-0083 is a swivel top plate caster fitted with a 5-inch diameter phenolic wheel and a Rollock brake for controlled stopping on material handling equipment. The wheel is 2 inches wide and rides on a roller bearing housed in a cold forged frame with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance. Rated to carry 1,000 pounds, this caster is built for demanding shop floor and warehouse use. The top plate mount measures 4 by 4.5 inches and the overall assembly height is 6.5 inches. Installation is straightforward for maintenance crews and facilities technicians familiar with standard caster swaps.

This caster is suited for material handling applications in industrial, warehouse, and shop environments. The Rollock brake style allows operators to lock the wheel in place quickly, making it practical for carts, racks, dollies, and other rolling equipment that must stay stationary during loading or unloading. The phenolic wheel is a common choice for hard, smooth floors where a firm, non-marking roll is needed. The swivel configuration allows full 360-degree directional movement, supporting maneuverable cart designs in tight spaces.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians or facilities personnel. Before replacing a caster, ensure the cart or equipment is unloaded and stabilized to prevent tipping. Secure the top plate using hardware appropriate for the frame material and rated for the intended load. Verify the Rollock brake engages and releases cleanly before returning the equipment to service.
