Description
Thread Type Swivel 3″ TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) Caster Wheel
Thread Type Swivel 3 Inch TPR Caster Wheel is a compact stem-mounted caster designed for utility carts, office trolleys, display racks, movable shelving, service equipment and compatible indoor applications requiring smooth multidirectional movement.
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 Multidirectional Movement
The swivel mechanism allows the caster to rotate and change direction, helping compatible trolleys, carts and mobile equipment turn, manoeuvre and reposition more easily in offices, shops, showrooms, storerooms and confined indoor areas.
🔇 Quieter Indoor Rolling
The softer TPR tread helps reduce rolling noise and vibration compared with harder wheel materials, making it suitable for indoor applications where quieter and smoother 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 and transported items.
📦 Common Uses
Suitable for utility carts, office trolleys, display racks, movable shelving, shop equipment, service carts, storage units, equipment stands and compatible indoor fixtures designed for threaded-stem caster mounting.
🏢 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 thread-type swivel version when the trolley or equipment requires easy multidirectional movement and has a compatible threaded mounting point.
Choose the matching thread-type swivel-and-lockable version when easy turning and parking control are both required.
Choose a top-plate swivel version when the equipment is designed for plate-mounted installation rather than a threaded stem.
📐 Check Compatibility Before Ordering
Before ordering, confirm the wheel diameter, overall caster height, threaded-stem diameter, thread pitch, stem length and available clearance on your trolley or equipment.
The product page does not currently publish a verified working-load capacity or complete thread measurements. Confirm the required load and mounting compatibility with JTC before using the wheel for loaded equipment or replacing an existing caster.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What does TPR mean?
TPR means Thermoplastic Rubber. It provides a softer, more cushioned rolling surface than hard nylon or hard-plastic caster wheels.
Can this caster turn in different directions?
Yes. The swivel mechanism allows the caster to rotate and change direction for easier manoeuvring.
Does this caster have a brake?
No. This is the standard non-locking swivel version. Choose the matching swivel-and-lockable version when parking control is required.
What is a thread-type caster?
A thread-type caster uses a threaded stem or bolt-style mounting instead of a flat top plate. The stem screws into a compatible socket, nut or mounting point.
What thread size does this caster use?
The current product page does not publish the thread diameter, pitch or stem length. Confirm these measurements with JTC before ordering.
Is this a rubber wheel?
It is a thermoplastic rubber wheel. TPR provides rubber-like cushioning and grip while being manufactured as a thermoplastic material.
Is it suitable for quieter indoor use?
Yes. TPR wheels are commonly selected where quieter rolling, floor protection and smoother trolley movement are important.
What is the working-load capacity?
The current product page does not publish a verified load capacity. Confirm the required application and load with JTC before ordering.
Where does this wheel perform best?
It performs best on clean and reasonably smooth indoor tile, epoxy-coated and finished concrete floors.
Is mounting hardware included?
Additional nuts, sockets and installation hardware are not included unless separately specified.
