Hamilton Caster has added a twin-wheel design to its line of polyurethane wheels. The Swivel-EAZ wheel features two independent swivel surfaces that roll using internal precision bearings on one common axle. These surfaces reduce rolling resistance and minimize the initial start forces while eliminating the need for costlier dual-wheel casters. The split outer polyurethane treads of the wheel are non-marking and moulded to rust-resistant aluminum cores. Available mounted in many of the company’s broad line of industrial casters, the wheel comes in 4-in. and 8-in. diameter sizes, crown and flat face tread designs and 80A and 95A hardnesses.
