3 Inch Wire Rack & Shelving Caster Kit (Set of 4) Details

The AstraRoll Technical Advantage: Smooth, Silent, and Secure
Standard hard-plastic wheels supplied with cheap shelving units are noisy, scratch floors, and shatter under impact. We engineered our shelving kits to deliver commercial-grade performance:
Whisper-Quiet Floor Protection: Our premium Thermo-Plastic Rubber (TPR) tread combines the durability of hard plastic with the soft, shock-absorbing ride of rubber. It rolls silently across tile and concrete and is 100% non-marking, making it ideal for pristine hospital corridors or high-end retail floors.
Universal OEM Compatibility: Designed with a precision-machined 3/8"-16 x 1-1/4" threaded stem, these casters screw perfectly into the bottom of almost any standard 1-inch wire shelving post. Installation takes seconds—no specialized tools or adapters required.
Total Lock Stability: When you need your mobile rack to act as a stationary prep table, our heavy-duty step-down brakes lock securely into place, preventing both wheel rotation and swivel rig movement.
Integrated Wall Protection: Every kit includes four revolving rubber "donut" bumpers that slide just above the casters. If a heavy cart bumps into a wall or doorframe, the bumper absorbs the impact, saving your facility from expensive drywall repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Will these fit my specific brand of wire shelving?
A: Yes. The 3/8"-16 threaded stem is the universal industry standard for nearly all major wire shelving brands with 1-inch diameter posts, including Metro, Nexel, Regency, Eagle, and Seville Classics. Simply unscrew the stationary leveling feet and screw these casters in.
Q: How much weight can the entire shelving unit hold with these casters installed?
A: This 3-inch kit is rated for a dynamic load of 600 lbs (evenly distributed across the shelves). For extremely heavy industrial storage requiring 1,000+ lbs capacity, we recommend upgrading to our 5-inch Polyurethane wire shelving caster kits.
Q: Do the brakes lock just the wheel, or the swivel too?
A: Our premium brake levers are designed to apply strong positive pressure to the wheel tread, firmly locking the wheel in place so your rack will not roll away while you are loading or unloading inventory.
Q: Are the donut bumpers required for installation?
A: They are optional but highly recommended. The rubber bumpers slide over the stem before you screw the caster into the post. They sit just above the wheel to act as a revolving cushion against walls and other carts.
