ISO shipping container swivel castor with brake 250 mm - 3000 kg

Shipping container swivel castor with brake 250 mm with ISO Twistlock - 3000 kg

The shipping container wheels are specifically designed to enable easy movement of ISO containers, even under heavy loads. To secure the twist lock mechanism, the twist handle must be pressed in, causing the mechanism to clamp onto the corner castings of the connection. A 100 mm fold-out support wheel is mounted on the fork section of the wheel, allowing the swivel castor to be easily moved under a corner casting. Once secured, the support wheel can be folded in.

The swivel castor has double wheels with a diameter of 250 mm and a width of 63 mm, which ensures good maneuverability and low rolling resistance, even under high loads. The wheels are equipped with a yellow polyurethane tire that is vulcanized onto cast iron rims that are painted black. The tires have a hardness of 92 shore A, which makes the wheel slightly cushioned and suitable for uneven surfaces. Both wheels are locked by the brake mechanism and have double 6206 2RS ball bearings for smooth and tension-free operation. The swivel castor has a dynamic load capacity of 3000 kg.

The wheel's swivel head has a four-position directional lock, which allows the swivel head to be locked at every 90 degrees. This ensures stability and precise maneuverability. In addition, the fork is hot-dip galvanized, protecting it from light weather conditions. The swivel ring is sealed to keep out dirt. The swivel ring consists of an axial roller bearing and a tapered roller bearing, allowing smooth rotation even under very heavy loads. The fork section and mounting plate are securely fastened with bolts and spot welds, ensuring that there is no play in the fork head. The steel fork is 10 mm thick and the twist-lock mechanism and forks are attached to the swivel ring with a spot weld.
