Castor wheel — bottom entry, 3.5 t

EC-CWBE-35-TL / -PL
3D model on request

Bolt this 3.5 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

Step up to 3.5 t and this castor still swivels on a threaded main stem that sets preload, with 16 mm plate legs welded to the housing to take the impact and static loads of powered towing. The dovetail twistlock interface locks it into the bottom corner casting with nothing to drill or weld, and it works with the castor tow hitch in this range.

Features

  • Bottom-entry twistlock engagement — no drilling or welding; interface plates steady the wheel in operation
  • Separate SKUs for castors supplied with the twistlock (-TL) and without it (-PL)
  • Optional swivel lock available (at 90° intervals)
  • Optional steering arm
  • Fitted with a bespoke stand to aid moving and installation

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.
