Apparatus caster with swivel bracket and brake TPRb F

The TPRb F light-duty series features casters with a swivel bracket equipped with a reliable brake mechanism. The bracket is made of steel with a zinc-plated coating that provides corrosion protection. A bolt hole at the top allows for easy mounting to equipment. The tread is made of grey thermoplastic rubber, resistant to moisture and chemically aggressive substances, while the rim is made of high-strength polypropylene.

Thermoplastic rubber maintains its properties within a wide temperature range: from -20°C to +60°C.

This series is used in medical facilities and laboratories (trolleys, stretchers, furniture), as well as for installation on commercial equipment.

Information about casters and operating conditions
• Casters are replaceable technical components mounted on equipment, platform carts, and similar devices to provide mobility. This information applies to swivel casters intended exclusively for use on non-motorized transport units and equipment (hereafter referred to as “units”) that are typically stationary and moved at speeds not exceeding 4 km/h.
• Operating conditions primarily include technically correct installation:
– The caster must be securely attached to the unit at all designated mounting points.
– Swivel casters must be installed with their swivel axis in a vertical position.
– Fixed (rigid) casters must be mounted so that their wheel axes lie on parallel lines.
– All swivel casters installed on a unit must be of the same type.
– The load on a single caster is calculated using the formula:
Q = ((M + m) / (n – 1)) × W
Where:
Q – load on one caster
M – weight of the transported load
m – weight of the cart
n – number of casters
W – safety factor (>1 under non-standard operating conditions)
• The caster, bracket, braking and locking systems, as well as the wheel axle, form a single functional assembly.
• A necessary condition for proper caster selection is the availability of data on all potential loads.
