How do you determine whether caster wheels are of good quality?

Casters should always operate smoothly and stably on the ground—but this is almost purely a theoretical ideal. In reality, casters frequently encounter brief, jagged surfaces when leaving the ground, or cross thresholds, tracks, and potholes. Consequently, when they suddenly become overloaded or when three-quarters of the casters lose contact with the ground, they must bear the entire weight of the furniture.

What are the differences among different swivel casters?

These two types of casters, due to their different functions, also serve different purposes. Swivel casters are suitable for food transportation in restaurants, while non-swivel casters are better suited for food handling in environments with a higher degree of mechanization. Because the materials used in non-swivel casters are relatively harder, many factories prefer these casters—they’re far superior to the swivel ones.

Principle of Antistatic Casters

Electrostatic casters are typically made from conductive materials such as metal or carbon fiber. These conductive materials have excellent electrical conductivity, enabling them to quickly dissipate static charges to the ground and thus prevent their accumulation. In addition, electrostatic casters feature a special structural design that enhances their conductivity and grounding effectiveness.
