Description
Swivel Type Lockable Heavy Duty 6″ x 2″ Teflon Caster Wheel
Swivel Type Lockable Heavy Duty 6″ x 2″ Teflon Caster Wheel is a wide industrial caster designed for heavy platform trolleys, warehouse transport carts, fabricated steel frames, machinery bases and material-handling equipment requiring easy steering and controlled stationary positioning.
Its large 6-inch diameter, wide 2-inch hard-plastic wheel, reinforced swivel bracket, heavy-duty top-plate mounting and foot-operated brake provide 360-degree manoeuvrability, efficient rolling and practical parking stability on suitable industrial floors.
🔄 Heavy-Duty 360° Swivel Movement
The reinforced swivel head rotates through 360 degrees, allowing heavy trolleys, transport platforms and mobile equipment to turn and change direction more easily in warehouses, factories, workshops and fabrication areas.
🔒 Foot-Operated Parking Brake
The integrated foot brake restricts wheel rolling under normal working conditions, helping reduce unwanted equipment movement while the trolley or platform is parked, loaded or unloaded.

⚖️ Wide Tread for Load Stability
The wide 2-inch wheel profile provides a broader contact area than narrow caster wheels, supporting improved load distribution and stable movement for compatible industrial trolleys, platforms and machinery bases.
⚙️ 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, dimensional stability 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 and is not a genuine heat-resistant PTFE caster.
📦 Common Uses
Suitable for heavy-duty industrial trolleys, warehouse transport platforms, fabricated steel carts and frames, machinery bases, mobile work platforms, equipment-support structures and custom material-handling systems.
⬆️ Benefits of the 6-Inch Wheel Size
The larger 6-inch diameter provides improved ground clearance and generally rolls more efficiently under heavy loads than smaller industrial caster wheels.
Combined with the wide 2-inch tread, it provides a practical balance of rolling efficiency, load distribution and stable equipment movement.
🏭 Recommended for Smooth Industrial Floors
This hard caster wheel performs best in dry environments on clean 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 swivel and lockable version when the trolley or equipment requires 360-degree steering together with a brake for controlled stationary positioning.
Choose the matching standard swivel version when multidirectional movement is required without a parking brake.
Choose the rigid version when stable straight-line movement and predictable forward-and-backward travel are required.
📐 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.
⚠️ Brake Function Note
The current specification confirms that the foot-operated brake restricts wheel rolling. Do not describe this model as a total-lock caster that locks both the wheel and swivel head unless that function is separately confirmed.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Does this caster rotate through 360 degrees?
Yes. The reinforced swivel head rotates fully to provide multidirectional movement and controlled steering.
Does this caster include a brake?
Yes. It includes a foot-operated brake that restricts wheel rolling under normal working conditions.
Does the brake lock the swivel head?
The current specification confirms restriction of wheel rolling. A total-lock function for the swivel head is not confirmed.
What is the recommended working load?
The recommended working-load guidance is approximately 300–320 kg per wheel under suitable conditions and proper load distribution.
Is this wheel made from genuine PTFE?
No. It is a hard-plastic industrial wheel commonly marketed as Teflon type.
Is this wheel suitable for high-temperature use?
No. It is designed for mechanical strength and industrial load handling, not ovens, furnaces or other 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.
Do the matching versions have the same load guidance?
Yes. The matching 6″ × 2″ rigid and standard swivel Teflon-type casters publish the same approximate 300–320 kg recommended working load per wheel.
Is mounting hardware included?
Mounting bolts and installation hardware are not included unless separately specified.
