Heavy Duty Plate Castor with Brake for Aluminium Frame Equipment
As a leading aluminum profile manufacturer, we are proud to offer the Heavy Duty Plate Castor with Brake, designed specifically for seamless integration with our T-slot framing systems. This castor features a durable polyurethane (PU) wheel that provides excellent floor protection, high abrasion resistance, and exceptionally quiet rolling performance. Available in four sizes (1.5", 2.0", 2.5", and 3.0" diameters), each model supports substantial loads, ranging from 80kg to 350kg per caster. The integrated total lock brake secures both the wheel and swivel, ensuring your equipment remains stationary when parked. The robust plate mounting design allows for quick, tool-free attachment to aluminum profiles using standard hardware. Engineered for demanding industrial environments, this castor is ideal for mobile workstations, automation equipment, and heavy machinery frames. With its corrosion-resistant finish and 360° swivel capability, it delivers reliable performance and longevity, making it the perfect mobility solution for custom aluminum frame equipment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this castor compatible with all MK Aluminum T-slot profiles?
A: Yes, our Heavy Duty Plate Castor is designed as part of the MK Aluminum modular T-slot framing ecosystem. It mounts easily to standard 8mm or 10mm slot profiles using T-slot nuts and bolts, which are sold separately.
Q: How does the brake mechanism work?
A: The castor features a total lock brake that simultaneously locks the wheel from rolling and the swivel from rotating. This provides secure, stationary positioning for your equipment when the brake is engaged, preventing any unintended movement.
Q: What is the load capacity for the 3.0-inch model?
A: The 3.0-inch model (MKFP-PUPC-3.0Inch) has a typical load capacity range of 250–350 kg per caster. For exact engineering specifications and load ratings, please request a technical datasheet from our team.
