Leveling caster selection

Finding the right leveling caster for your project

The choice of the right leveling caster for your construction is crucial. There are different types of leveling casters, but the right choice for your project is crucial.

Think about the following points:

    1. Are there special regulations (chemical, food industry) which have to be adhered to?
    2. Do you need stainless steel leveling casters due to these regulations?
    3. What is the maximum total weight of your construction?
    4. What is the condition of the soil or floor on site?
    5. Do you need polyamide or polyurethane wheels?
    6. Do you need a leveling caster with foot pedal?
    7. Do you need a leveling caster with plate or with stem fitting?
    8. Are you tied to a certain overall height?
    9. Would a lifting system be more suitable for your application?

    Based on the criteria you have defined, you can then select the appropriate leveling caster for your project.

Advantages of a leveling caster

Why use leveling casters?

We have been manufacturing leveling casters for some time, but not everyone knows the advantages of this product yet. A leveling caster combines two functions in a single product:

  • "drive"
  • "stand"

They consist of a caster, a machine foot, a mechanism and sometimes a foot pedal. Thanks to leveling casters, a worktable, a piece of furniture, a working platform or even a measuring device can be moved quickly and easily from its previous location to another location. Changes in production or general changes and optimizations in the work processes of a company can thus be taken into account. Leveling casters lead to more flexibility. Nevertheless, the effort for the team or the individual employee is kept within limits. Lifting rollers make sense above all where the use of large devices such as a forklift truck or a lift truck is not possible or very difficult.

Assembly of leveling casters

Installing lifting rollers - made easy

Leveling casters are available in various designs. Thus there are also differences in the assembly of the different types.

The following mounting options are available:

    1. with standard plate 105 x 85 mm (external dimensions) => various types
    2. with special plate => leveling caster type A2
    3. with stem fitting M10 => leveling caster type SLKX 5/50 and type SLK 41/50
    4. with back hole for one screw M12 => leveling caster type RL200
