Industrial settings require durable and reliable casters to move heavy loads efficiently. When you need a caster that can handle high speeds, heavy impacts, and tough conditions, RWM’s kingpinless casters are the top choice. As the originator and recognized market leader of kingpinless casters, RWM has designed a solution that outperforms traditional casters in demanding industrial applications.

Inforgraphic explaining the benefits of RWM Casters' Kingpinless casters.

What Is a Kingpinless Caster?

Kingpinless casters differ from traditional casters primarily in their construction. Most conventional casters use a central kingpin to hold the swivel sections together. While functional, this design is prone to failure under heavy loads and high-impact conditions. In contrast, kingpinless casters eliminate the weak point by using a single, robust raceway design.

This patented design by RWM has made their kingpinless casters the industry standard. Without the common failure point of the kingpin, these casters can handle higher speeds and impacts while delivering a longer service life. This innovative approach not only improves durability but also enhances maneuverability and reduces maintenance needs.

Benefits of Kingpinless Casters

Kingpinless casters offer numerous advantages compared to traditional caster designs:

Superior Durability: The absence of a kingpin eliminates a common failure point, resulting in longer-lasting casters.
High Impact Resistance: These casters withstand harsh conditions and heavy loads without breaking.
Enhanced Speed Capability: Ideal for high-speed applications, maintaining stability while moving large weights.
Longer Service Life: The heat-treated raceway reduces bearing indentations from impact, allowing the swivel section to turn smoothly.
Heavy Load Capacity: Able to handle loads up to 40,000 pounds, making them perfect for demanding applications.
Improved Maneuverability: Precision-machined raceways reduce wear and provide tight swivel tolerance, making movement easier.
Strength and Stability: 74% stronger than the competition, thanks to harder steel and high carbon content.
Reduced Maintenance: The modular top plate and heat-treated raceway reduce wear and maintenance costs.
Smooth Operation: Evenly distributed radial force eliminates hammering forces on raceway intersections, enhancing performance.

With these features, RWM’s durable kingpinless casters outperform other designs, making them a smart investment for any industrial application.

Best Uses for Our Casters

Kingpinless casters are built for tough applications where durability and performance are non-negotiable. Here are some common industries and uses where kingpinless casters excel:
