When selecting a good caster, it is necessary to consider multiple factors comprehensively to ensure that it meets specific usage requirements. The following is a clear guide for selecting casters, including punctuation and information summarization:

1、 Understand the types of casters

Heavy duty casters: usually made of metal or plastic, with high load-bearing capacity and stability, suitable for situations where heavy loads are required and ground requirements are not high.

Elastic casters: made of rubber, polyurethane and other materials, with shock absorption and cushioning performance, suitable for occasions with high ground requirements and noise reduction needs.

Universal casters: can rotate 360 degrees, making the device more flexible during movement, suitable for situations where frequent changes in direction are required.

2、 Determine the size of the casters

Diameter: The larger the diameter of the casters, the better the stability of the equipment, but the rolling resistance will also increase accordingly. Generally, the appropriate diameter is selected based on the device's weight and movement requirements.

Width: The width of the casters affects the load-bearing capacity and stability of the equipment. Wider casters can provide a larger support area and are suitable for accepting heavier loads.

3、 Consider raw materials for casters

Metal casters: They have high load-bearing capacity and stability, but they are noisy and have severe wear and tear on the ground.

Plastic casters: simple, impact resistant, and have low noise, but their load-bearing capacity is relatively weak.

Rubber casters: With outstanding shock absorption and cushioning performance, suitable for occasions with high ground requirements.

Nylon raw material: lubricating, not easy to produce noise, and has a high cost performance ratio.

Polyurethane raw material: With good elasticity and impact resistance, it is suitable for furniture and places with high wear and tear.

Zinc alloy raw materials: Good toughness, high strength and hardness, but relatively expensive.
