Round Steel Air Bearing & Caster Modules - Great Machinery Moving Equipment

Machinery Moving Equipment - Round Steel Modules - Great for permanent fitting to heavy machinery and other loads that require repetitive movements. Mounting plates available.

Round Steel Air Caster Modules are the ideal machinery moving equipment, and are very strong and robust structures capable of supporting the proportionate weight of loads weighing many tons. They have a profile height of under 3 inches. They are the most suitable equipment for lifting and moving heavy machinery, and are often attached permanently to machinery that requires repetitive movements, via an optional steel mounting plate.

The low profile of this caster module requires less than 3" clearance. Ordinary 90-110 psi air is required to inflate it. This air bearing is ideal for the fixed application of modular air bearings.
