How it rolls
The softer TPR tread helps reduce harsh rolling noise compared with harder wheel materials, making it suitable for indoor areas where quieter trolley movement is preferred.
Suitable floors
Smooth tiles, epoxy-coated floors and sealed concrete, especially for indoor trolleys where quieter running and cushioning are useful. Keep the route clear of sharp debris and deep joints.
Typical uses
Suitable for utility carts, office trolleys, display racks, movable shelving, shop equipment, service carts, storage units and compatible indoor fixtures requiring easy multidirectional movement and parking control.
JTC working-load guidance is per wheel for comparable models in this mounting series, not a trolley rating or a certified test result. Individual published model recommendations may differ. Allow for equipment weight, uneven loading, mounting strength, floor condition and impact.

Rigid Type 3″ TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) Caster Wheel
Rigid Type 3″ TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) Caster Wheel is a fixed-direction caster designed for utility trolleys, office carts, display racks, movable shelving and compatible indoor equipment requiring stable straight-line movement.
Its practical 3-inch thermoplastic rubber wheel provides a softer rolling surface than hard nylon or hard-plastic caster wheels, helping reduce rolling noise and provide better protection for suitable finished indoor floors.
️ Stable Straight-Line Movement
The rigid bracket keeps the wheel facing in one fixed direction. It moves forward and backward without swivelling sideways, providing predictable tracking for compatible trolleys, carts and equipment.
Quieter Indoor Rolling
The softer TPR tread helps reduce harsh rolling noise compared with harder wheel materials, making it suitable for shops, offices, showrooms, hospitals and indoor service areas.
Technical Specifications

Fixed forward-and-backward movement
Top plate / fixed bracket mount
No – rigid non-locking version
Approximately 4 inches / 102 mm
Approximately 3.7″ × 2.5″ / 94 × 64 mm
️ Better Protection for Finished Floors
The softer thermoplastic rubber tread provides more cushioning than hard nylon and hard-plastic wheels, helping reduce harsh wheel contact on suitable tile, epoxy and finished concrete floors.
〰️ Smoother Trolley Movement
The rubber-like TPR tread provides a more cushioned rolling feel than hard wheel materials, supporting controlled trolley movement across clean and reasonably level indoor floors.
Common Uses
Suitable for utility trolleys, office carts, hospital service carts, display racks, movable shelving, shop equipment, storage units and compatible indoor fixtures requiring stable straight-line movement.
Recommended for Indoor Floors
TPR wheels are best suited to clean and reasonably smooth indoor surfaces such as tile, epoxy-coated floors and finished concrete.
Continuous use on broken concrete, rough outdoor ground, metal scrap areas or sharp debris may increase tread wear. A rubber, PU, Jeep-cut or pneumatic wheel may be more suitable for demanding outdoor conditions.
Choosing the Correct Caster Type
Choose this rigid version when the trolley or equipment requires stable and predictable forward-and-backward movement.
Choose the matching swivel version when easy turning and multidirectional movement are required.
Choose the matching swivel-and-lockable version when easy steering and parking control are both required.
Check Compatibility Before Ordering
Before ordering, confirm the wheel diameter, overall caster height, mounting-plate dimensions, bolt-hole spacing and available clearance on your trolley or equipment.
The product page does not currently publish a verified working-load capacity. Confirm the required load and application with JTC before installing the wheel on loaded equipment.

Swivel Type Lockable 3″ TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) Caster Wheel
Swivel Type Lockable 3 TPR Thermoplastic Rubber Caster Wheel is a multidirectional caster designed for utility trolleys, display racks, office carts, service equipment and compatible indoor applications requiring easy turning and convenient parking control.
Its 3-inch thermoplastic rubber wheel provides a softer rolling surface than hard nylon or hard-plastic wheels, helping reduce trolley noise, absorb minor vibration and provide better protection for suitable finished indoor floors.
Easy 360-Degree Movement
The swivel bracket rotates freely, allowing the wheel to change direction without lifting or repositioning the trolley. This supports easier steering in offices, shops, showrooms, service areas and other indoor working environments.
Integrated Parking Control
The integrated locking mechanism provides convenient parking control when the trolley or equipment needs to remain stationary during normal use, loading, unloading or storage.

The softer TPR tread helps reduce harsh rolling noise compared with harder wheel materials, making it suitable for indoor areas where quieter trolley movement is preferred.
️ Better Protection for Finished Floors
The softer thermoplastic rubber tread provides more cushioning than hard nylon and hard-plastic wheels. This helps reduce harsh contact with suitable finished floors during normal indoor use.
〰️ Reduced Vibration
The rubber-like TPR tread absorbs minor vibration from floor joints and small surface imperfections, supporting smoother trolley movement and helping reduce vibration transferred to the trolley frame.
Common Uses
Suitable for utility carts, office trolleys, display racks, movable shelving, shop equipment, service carts, storage units and compatible indoor fixtures requiring easy multidirectional movement and parking control.
Recommended for Indoor Floors
TPR wheels are best suited to clean and reasonably smooth indoor surfaces such as tile, epoxy-coated floors and finished concrete.
Continuous use on broken concrete, sharp debris, rough outdoor ground or highly uneven surfaces may increase rolling resistance and tread wear. A heavy-duty rubber, Jeep-cut or pneumatic wheel may be more suitable for rougher conditions.
Choosing the Correct Caster Type
Choose this swivel lockable version when easy turning and parking control are both required.
Choose the matching rigid version when stable and predictable forward-and-backward movement is required.
Choose the matching standard swivel version when easy multidirectional movement is required without a parking lock.
Check Compatibility Before Ordering
Before ordering, confirm the wheel diameter, overall caster height, mounting-plate dimensions, bolt-hole spacing, swivel clearance and available installation space on your trolley or equipment.
The product page does not currently publish a verified working-load capacity. Confirm the required load and application with JTC before using the wheel for loaded equipment or replacing an existing caster.
The locking mechanism is intended to provide normal parking control. Do not rely on the caster lock as the only safety restraint on slopes, moving vehicles or safety-critical equipment.
