Air Cargo & Deck Casters Manufacturer

The AstraRoll Technical Advantage: Built for the Tarmac
Airport cargo handling is a game of high speed and high impact. We've engineered our CargoMax series to conquer these specific challenges:

Superior Impact Absorption: Cargo pallets (ULDs) are often dropped onto decks with significant force. AstraRoll casters utilize a thickened top plate and a reinforced cold-forged swivel head that distributes shock loads evenly, preventing the raceway from "brinelling" (denting) or jamming.

All-Weather Debris Protection: Unlike standard industrial casters, our Air Cargo series features a Full-Wrap Debris Shield. This prevents metal shavings, cargo straps, and grit from entering the swivel raceway, ensuring the caster continues to pivot smoothly in the dirtiest sorting environments.

Advanced Corrosion Resistance: Airport aprons are chemically hostile environments due to jet fuel, de-icing fluids, and salt. Our rigs undergo a specialized multi-stage zinc plating process that exceeds industry-standard salt spray tests, ensuring years of rust-free service in outdoor conditions.

Zero-Maintenance Sealed Bearings: Every second counts in air logistics. We utilize permanently sealed, high-precision ball bearings in both the swivel and the wheel hub. This eliminates the need for periodic re-greasing and prevents bearing seizure caused by moisture.

Key Specifications & Capabilities

Swivel Raceway: Double ball-bearing raceway, case-hardened for maximum life.
Mounting: 2-bolt/4-bolt top plate (customization available).

Why Choose AstraRoll?

Wholesale Solutions for Terminals: We provide massive-scale supply for new airport terminal builds and global cargo hubs. By buying direct from the AstraRoll factory, terminal operators and logistics integrators bypass the "aviation premium" markup of secondary distributors.

Custom OEM Decks: Building a custom transfer platform? Our engineering team can adapt mounting heights and bolt-hole patterns to act as a seamless drop-in replacement for any legacy cargo deck system (Colson, RWM, etc.).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Are these casters resistant to de-icing fluids?
A: Yes. We use specialized seals and high-durability zinc coatings specifically designed to resist the corrosive nature of aircraft de-icing chemicals and jet fuel common on airport ramps.

Q: Can these wheels handle the impact of a falling ULD pallet?
A: While no caster is indestructible, our reinforced nylon wheels and forged raceways are designed to survive the high-impact "drop" loading typical in cargo hubs. For extreme impact areas, we recommend our specialized heavy-wall forged steel rigs.

Q: Do you offer non-swivel (rigid) versions?
A: Absolutely. While swivel casters are the standard for omni-directional decks, we provide matching rigid rigs for sorting lanes that require guided, straight-line movement.

Q: Is the debris shield removable for cleaning?
A: The shield is designed to be permanent to provide maximum protection, but the sealed bearings inside require no cleaning. The external housing can be high-pressure washed without compromising the internal grease.

Q1. Are you a trader or direct factory?
