Castors, hitches, lugs

Castor wheel — bottom entry, 1.8 t

Bolt this 1.8 t bottom-entry castor onto a container's bottom corner casting and tow it across concrete, paving or asphalt without a crane or forklift. The dovetail twistlock interface needs no drilling or welding, and it's available with (-TL) or without (-PL) the twistlock.

Description

Built for the abnormally high impact and static loads that powered towing puts through a container, this 1.8 t castor carries the load on a precision swivel set by a threaded main stem, with 16 mm plate legs welded to the housing. It locks straight into the bottom corner casting through the dovetail twistlock interface, and works with the matching castor tow hitch.

Features

• Locks into the bottom corner casting via the dovetail twistlock interface — no drilling or welding, with interface plates to steady the wheel in use
• Choose -TL (supplied with the twistlock) or -PL (without) — each option has its own SKU
• Optional swivel lock, adjustable at 90° intervals
• Short-term hire available on the 1.8 t variants

Where it is used

For hard, flat, prepared surfaces such as concrete, paving and asphalt. Moving over unpaved or uneven ground calls for the off-road wheel kit instead.
