Description
Swivel Type Heavy Duty 5″ x 2″ Teflon Caster Wheel
Swivel Type Heavy Duty 5 x 2 Teflon Caster Wheel is a wide industrial caster designed for heavy platform trolleys, warehouse transport carts, fabricated steel frames, machinery bases and demanding material-handling equipment requiring easy steering.
Its large 5-inch diameter, wide 2-inch Teflon-type hard-plastic wheel, reinforced swivel bracket and heavy-duty top-plate mounting provide 360-degree manoeuvrability, efficient rolling and improved load stability on suitable industrial floors.
🔄 Heavy-Duty 360° Swivel Movement
The swivel bracket rotates through 360 degrees, allowing heavy trolleys, transport platforms and mobile equipment to turn and change direction more easily in warehouses, workshops, factories and fabrication areas.
⚖️ Wide Tread for Load Stability
The wide 2-inch tread distributes weight across a broader wheel surface, supporting stable movement and improved balance for compatible industrial trolleys, platforms and equipment.

⚙️ Low Rolling Resistance
The rigid hard-plastic wheel rolls efficiently across smooth and stable industrial floors, helping reduce the starting and pushing effort required when moving compatible heavy-duty equipment.
🧱 Heavy-Duty Teflon-Type Wheel
The dense hard-plastic construction provides a rigid wheel profile, useful shape retention and dependable rolling performance for demanding indoor material-handling applications.
Important: “Teflon type” is the common market description for this hard-plastic industrial wheel. It is designed for mechanical strength and load handling, not ovens, furnaces or other high-temperature environments.
📦 Common Uses
Suitable for heavy-duty industrial trolleys, warehouse transport platforms, fabricated steel carts and frames, machinery bases, equipment-support structures, mobile work platforms and custom material-handling systems.
⬆️ Benefits of the 5-Inch Wheel Size
The larger 5-inch diameter generally rolls more easily and provides better ground clearance than smaller industrial caster wheels.
Combined with the wide 2-inch tread, it offers a practical balance of rolling efficiency, load distribution and manageable equipment height.
🏭 Designed for Smooth Industrial Floors
This hard caster wheel performs best on clean, dry and reasonably level concrete, epoxy-coated and tiled industrial floors.
Continuous operation on rough, broken or highly uneven surfaces may increase vibration, pushing effort and wheel wear. Rubber, TPR or pneumatic wheels may be more suitable where additional cushioning is required.
🛞 Choosing the Correct Caster Type
Choose this standard swivel version when the trolley or equipment requires 360-degree steering and multidirectional movement without a parking brake.
Choose the matching rigid version when maximum straight-line stability and predictable forward-and-backward movement are required.
Choose the swivel-and-lockable version when the equipment must be manoeuvred and then held stationary using a foot-operated brake.
📐 Check Compatibility Before Ordering
Before ordering, confirm the wheel diameter, wheel width, mounting-plate dimensions, bolt-hole spacing, overall caster height and available clearance on your trolley or equipment.
The recommended working load is application guidance. Actual suitability depends on equipment construction, mounting strength, number of casters, even load distribution, floor condition, movement speed and impact during use.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Does this caster rotate through 360 degrees?
Yes. The heavy-duty swivel bracket rotates fully to provide multidirectional movement and controlled steering.
Does this model include a brake?
No. This is the standard non-locking swivel version. A matching swivel-and-lockable model is available separately.
What is the recommended working load?
The recommended working-load guidance is approximately 260–275 kg per wheel under suitable conditions and proper load distribution.
Is this wheel suitable for high-temperature use?
No. It is a Teflon-type hard-plastic industrial wheel designed for mechanical strength and load handling, not high-temperature environments.
Where does this caster perform best?
It performs best on clean, dry and reasonably smooth concrete, tile and epoxy-coated industrial floors.
Can rigid and swivel casters be used together?
Yes. A common trolley arrangement uses two rigid casters for directional stability and two swivel casters for steering.
Do the matching versions have the same load guidance?
Yes. The matching 5″ × 2″ rigid and swivel-lockable Teflon-type caster wheels currently publish the same approximate 260–275 kg recommended working load per wheel.
Is mounting hardware included?
Mounting bolts and installation hardware are not included unless separately specified.
