Optimize the mobility and stability of your industrial equipment with our leveling swivel caster. Specifically designed for demanding environments, it allows you to easily move your heaviest technical machines and then immobilize them perfectly stable in record time.
Thanks to its retractable rubber pad operated by an integrated ratchet, you can switch from mobile equipment to a fixed and secure workstation effortlessly and without complex tools.
- Exceptional operator time savings: Less than a minute is enough to raise or lower the 4 casters of a support. A valuable asset for your teams' productivity and comfort.
- Ergonomic ratchet system: No more hard-to-reach knobs. The integrated ratchet lever allows you to raise or lower the pad with simple pumping motions.
- Maximum stability and safety: In the lowered position, the thick rubber pad absorbs vibrations and prevents any slipping.
- Optimized ground clearance: The pad raises the support by only 5 mm in real situations. This is the ideal height to firmly block the machine while maintaining a low center of gravity for maximum safety.
- Ultra-Robust Design: Equipped with a high-strength nylon roller and a reinforced body, it supports unit loads of up to 750 kg.
Operating Instructions & Functionality
The use of the caster is intuitive and ultra-fast:
- To lower the pad (Lock the machine): Position the ratchet to the right and perform a back-and-forth (pumping) motion until the rubber pad lifts the roller about 5 mm off the ground.
- To raise the pad (Move the machine): Position the ratchet to the left and pump to retract the pad. The roller then regains contact with the ground.
- Easy direction reversal: To switch between raising and lowering, simply pull or push the small selection button located on the side of the ratchet (indicated by the threading direction labels).
- Heavy Load Tip: You can insert a screwdriver or a 6 mm metal rod into the hole provided at the end of the ratchet to increase the lever arm and reduce the pumping effort.
(Visual note: In the presentation photos, the pad is shown in the fully lowered position to demonstrate the range of the mechanism. In actual use conditions, a lift of 5 mm of the roller is more than sufficient to stabilize your machine).
