Our selection of castor and trolley wheels is designed to meet the needs of both residential and industrial users. Light-duty wheels are commonly used for furniture and small equipment, while heavy-duty trolley wheels are essential for warehouses and logistics operations.

Castor and trolley wheels are widely used in:
• Warehouses and logistics centres
• Workshops and factories
• Retail stores and backrooms
• Offices and commercial spaces
• Trolleys, carts, racks, and equipment

Choosing the correct wheel type ensures safe movement, better control, and long-term durability under load.

Castor Wheels for Equipment & Furniture

A castor wheel (also spelled caster wheel) is a wheel mounted to a fork that allows objects to roll smoothly across floors. Castor wheels are commonly used on furniture, equipment, racks, and movable platforms.

Castor wheels are suitable for:
• Industrial equipment and machines
• Furniture and storage racks
• Worktables and movable platforms
• Office and commercial fixtures

Castor wheels are available in swivel and fixed designs. Swivel caster wheels allow full 360-degree movement for easy manoeuvring, while fixed caster wheels provide straight-line stability. Selecting the right castor wheel helps ensure smooth movement while supporting the required load capacity.

Trolley Wheels for Industrial & Warehouse Use
A trolley wheel is designed specifically for carts and trolleys that transport goods and materials. Trolley wheels are built to handle heavier loads and frequent movement, making them essential for industrial and warehouse environments.

Trolley wheels are commonly used for:
• Warehouse trolleys and carts
• Industrial material handling
• Retail stock movement
• Logistics and delivery operations

Durable trolley wheels improve stability and control when moving heavy items, reducing strain on workers and minimising the risk of accidents. For environments with continuous use, choosing high-quality trolley wheels is critical for safety and efficiency.

Types of Castor & Caster Wheels

Understanding the different types of castor wheels helps you select the most suitable option for your application.

Swivel Castor Wheels
Swivel caster wheels rotate freely, allowing easy directional changes. They are ideal for tight spaces and equipment that requires frequent manoeuvring.

Fixed Castor Wheels
Fixed caster wheels move in a straight line, providing stability and control for heavier loads or longer transport distances.

Rubber Castor Wheels
Rubber castor wheels are designed to reduce noise and protect floor surfaces. They are commonly used indoors on smooth floors.

Nylon & PU Wheels
Nylon and polyurethane (PU) wheels offer higher load capacity and resistance to wear. They are suitable for industrial environments where durability is required.

Heavy-Duty Caster Wheels
Heavy-duty caster wheels are designed to support substantial weight and frequent use. These wheels are ideal for industrial machinery, heavy trolleys, and warehouse equipment.

Choosing the Right Castor Wheel or Trolley Wheel

Selecting the right wheel depends on several important factors:
• Load capacity required
• Floor surface type
• Indoor or outdoor use
• Required mobility and manoeuvrability

For light equipment and furniture, smaller castor wheels may be sufficient. For industrial trolleys and heavy loads, larger trolley wheels or heavy-duty caster wheels are recommended. Always ensure the wheel’s load rating exceeds the actual weight being carried for safety and longevity.

Castor Wheels for Singapore Industrial Environments

In Singapore, castor and trolley wheels are widely used in industrial estates, warehouses, and commercial facilities. Smooth movement and space efficiency are especially important in environments where storage and transport areas may be limited.

Common local applications include:
• Warehouse material handling
• Factory equipment mobility
• Retail stock movement
• Workshop tool carts

Using suitable castor wheels helps optimise workflow and reduce downtime caused by damaged or inefficient wheels.

Durability, Floor Protection & Maintenance

Quality castor wheels are designed for long-term use with minimal maintenance. Choosing the correct wheel material helps protect floors and reduce wear on both the wheel and surface.

Maintenance tips include:
• Checking wheel bearings regularly
• Replacing worn or damaged wheels promptly
• Ensuring wheels are properly secured

Proper maintenance ensures smooth movement and extends the lifespan of castor and trolley wheels.
