Three steps. First, calculate the total loaded weight of the equipment plus the heaviest contents. Second, divide by the number of castors fitted (usually 4) to get the per-castor static load. Third, add a safety margin for impact, dynamic loading, and uneven floor — typically 25-50% above the static load. Choose castors with a load rating exceeding this figure. For example, a 400kg loaded cabinet on 4 castors needs 100kg per castor static; with safety margin, choose 150kg-rated castors per corner.

Rubber wheels offer good floor protection, quiet rolling, and shock absorption — the standard for general workshop and office use. Polyurethane wheels last longer than rubber, roll quieter on smooth floors, and don't mark linoleum or vinyl — preferred for heavy-use indoor applications. Steel and cast-iron wheels handle the heaviest loads and rough industrial floors but mark softer flooring and are noisier — used for heavy plant-yard and outdoor industrial work.

A swivel castor rotates 360 degrees on a top-mounted swivel bearing — the wheel follows the direction of push. A swivel-and-brake castor adds a foot-operated brake (typically a cam pressing against the wheel tread or a pin engaging the swivel) — engages to lock the castor in position. Standard practice on a 4-castor cabinet is two swivel-and-brake castors at one end (typically the rear) and two swivel castors at the other — gives mobility plus parking-brake function.

Most equipment castors use standard mounting patterns — top-plate (with the standard 2-bolt and 4-bolt patterns) or threaded-stem (typically M10, M12, or 1/2 inch UNC). Match the original castor's wheel diameter, mounting type, bolt-pattern dimensions, and load rating. The original castor often has manufacturer markings — search by the markings if visible.

Within Hardwares, Castors and Wheels covers the rolling-wheel hardware fitted to workshop equipment, mobile cabinets, work platforms, and the wider range of trolleys and rolling supports used in industrial, automotive, and trade environments — covering swivel castors, fixed castors, braked castors, heavy-duty industrial castors, and replacement-and-fitment wheels.

Parts for Machines supplies castors and wheels across the trade and industrial ranges — sized from light-duty 50mm castors (small bench-trolleys, light cabinets) up to heavy-duty 200mm+ industrial castors (rated 500kg+ per castor for heavy plant trolleys and industrial dollies).

Product pages list the wheel diameter (typically 50mm, 75mm, 100mm, 125mm, 150mm, or 200mm), the wheel material and tread (rubber for general workshop use; polyurethane for harder-wearing and quieter rolling on smooth floors; cast-iron or steel for heaviest-duty industrial use; pneumatic-tyred for rough-floor and outdoor use), the load rating per castor (in kg — must be sized to support the loaded weight divided across the number of castors, with safety margin for impact and dynamic load), the mounting style (top-plate with bolt-pattern, threaded-stem fitting, or expansion-stem fitting), the swivel and brake configuration (rigid/fixed, swivel without brake, swivel with brake, swivel with directional lock), and the bearing type (plain bushing for lighter use; ball-bearing for heavier and longer-life applications).

For replacement of an existing castor, match four key dimensions: wheel diameter, mounting style and bolt-pattern, load rating, and overall height (to maintain the equipment's original ride height). For a new fit-out, choose castors sized for at least 25% over the loaded equipment weight. Trade pricing on bulk-pack and workshop fit-out orders is available; contact the team via WhatsApp 07754288583.
