PU heavy duty castors: strong, durable and floor-friendly

When it comes to moving heavy loads, the right castors are essential. PU heavy duty castors are specifically designed to carry high weights effortlessly while rolling smoothly. Thanks to their robust yet elastic material, our polyurethane (PU) castors deliver reliable performance in warehouses, workshops and production environments. The combination of strength, durability and comfort makes PU heavy duty castors the ideal choice for anyone looking for wheels that are both strong and easy to move.

Why choose PU heavy duty castors?

Polyurethane offers an excellent balance between strength and flexibility. While nylon castors are often hard and noisy, and rubber wears out more quickly, PU provides a durable yet smooth solution. These castors roll comfortably, even under high loads. PU heavy duty castors are also quiet in operation and protect floors from scratches and wear. Want extra safety?

Frequently asked questions about PU heavy duty castors

Do you have questions about PU heavy duty castors? Below you’ll find the most common questions with clear, practical answers.

Can PU heavy duty castors be used outdoors?

Yes, PU heavy duty castors are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The polyurethane material is resistant to moisture, temperature changes and small surface irregularities. This allows them to roll smoothly even on concrete or hard floors.

How do I maintain PU heavy duty castors for a long lifespan?

Keep the castors clean by regularly removing dust and dirt with a dry cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning agents and check occasionally that the bearings still roll smoothly. Lightly lubricate them if necessary. Good maintenance prevents wear and ensures the castors roll quietly and efficiently, even under heavy use.

How do I determine the correct load capacity for PU heavy duty castors?

Load capacity is key to both safety and longevity. A simple rule of thumb: divide the total weight of the trolley and load by three. This ensures a safe margin. For example, a 600 kg transport trolley requires castors that can each carry at least 200 kg.
