Series: 7/8" Wide Casters: Series 1 | Colson Caster
Colson 1 Series casters are one of the most durable 1″-wide single-wheel caster solutions on the market, handling working loads of up to 145 lbs. per caster. Utilizing thicker steel than most competitors and an attractive zinc finish, this series provides reliability and performance for any light duty cart, rack, or cabinet application (plus many others!). Full double ball hardened raceways offer increased performance and swivel action. Each caster is pre-lubricated with ‘Colson 45’ multi-temp grease, which works in both hot and cold environments. If you need more capacity or a wider wheel footprint for stability, step up to the Colson 2 Series for capacities of up to 325 lbs. per caster and 1-1/4″ wide wheel treads.

Performa
Performa wheels offer the advantages of both hard and soft tread materials in a single wheel. Like a hard tread wheel, Performa rolls easily and is very durable. Like a soft tread wheel, it rolls quietly, protects floors and resists impacts with a cushion ride. It also features maximum weather-ability, low temperature flexibility, resistance to chemicals, water and steam, and rejects floor debris such as metal shavings. Non-marking thermoplastic elastomer tread is permanently bonded to a ribbed polyolefin wheel core.
Polyolefin
Designed for hard impacts and heavy loads, this wheel is injection molded from an exclusive Colson polyolefin compound. The unique ribbed design adds strength. Very light in weight, yet the impact strength of this wheel is far superior to hard rubber wheels. It offers superior resistance to most oils, chemicals, grease, gasoline, cooking fats and acids. In addition, the wheel is stain resistant, non-marking and provides zero water absorption.
Polyurethane HI-TECH
Polyurethane tread is bonded to a polyolefin core. Tread is molded in, around and through a ribbed extension of the core to prevent debonding. Standard colors are maroon tread on grey core. This is a very attractive, all purpose wheel. Resistant to most chemicals, solvents, water and acids.
Cushion and Hard Rubber
Cushion and Hard rubber wheels are conventional-style rubber wheels, which provide good floor protection and quiet operation. They support capacities up to 100 pounds each.
