This popular caster series has a precision roller bearing load and thrust swivel section (thrust swivel section = “TRL”). Rigs are precision machined to provide long life with greater capacity for that very rugged application. Made from AISI 1045 drop forged steel.
• Albion 295 Series: Standard Kingpin Dual Wheel Casters. Capacity up to 17000 Lbs. The 295 Series is designed for greater capacity and better distribution of floor load with lowest possible overall height.
