Benefits of SuperCompact Casters
With its unique Kingpinless design, the SuperCompact caster is a tough, durable substitute for other lesser-quality casters on the market today. SuperCompact caster benefits include:
- Superior durability: The weakest point in any swivel caster is the kingpin and the Kingpinless SuperCompact caster line offers impressive longevity, durability, and strength by eliminating that fail point.
- Extreme capacity: RWM’s SuperCompact caster offers impressive load-bearing capacity, with up to a 32,000-pound rating per wheel. This makes it ideal for moving heavy machinery equipment, tooling, die molds, and home manufacturing lines to transport even the heaviest loads.
- Compact design: Small size, big performance, SuperCompact casters are the ultimate solution for demanding situations that require maximum capacity with minimum caster size.
Best Applications for Small Casters
- Industrial Use: Small casters like the SuperCompact series are ideal for industrial equipment and machinery that require a combination of superior mobility, high weight ratings, and a low center of gravity. This includes tool carts, portable workstations, light-duty machinery, material handling equipment, utility carts with a low deck height, and more.
- Commercial & Retail Settings: Our SuperCompact series can make retail displays, office furniture, mobile shelving units, stock carts, and similar equipment efficient and easy to move with short casters that are discreet, easily hidden, and do not add too much height to the finished assembly.
- Medical & Laboratory Equipment: Small casters can provide medical equipment like lab carts, portable diagnostic machines, hospital beds, and food service carts with enhanced maneuverability wherever precision movements are required.
RWM Small Casters vs. Other Industrial Small Caster Manufacturers
- Quality & Performance: Unlike many competing products, the SuperCompact series of casters is made in the United States. They feature innovative designs, superior materials, and extensive testing to ensure they are durable and fit for the application. Our small casters offer incredible load ratings of up to 10,000 pounds per caster for the SC-85 series and up to 32,000 pounds for the SCF-125 series. They also offer smooth operation with quality bearings, hardened raceways, and exceptional longevity.
- Customization Options: In its standard configuration, the SuperCompact series features 4-inch mini caster wheels with a total height of 6 or 6.5 inches, depending on the weight rating. The standard wheel is steel, but RWM Casters can produce custom casters to fit your needs, with variable sizes, metal, rubber, or plastic wheels, and varying mourning options. Our custom caster options offer versatility that competing products cannot match due to their limited or non-existent customization options.
