The housing is constructed from polyamide, a durable engineering polymer that provides excellent chemical resistance and longevity, and incorporates two ball races within the swivel bearing assembly to ensure smooth, reliable rotation and minimal friction during operation. The wheel comprises a 125 mm diameter design with a polypropylene body that offers lightweight performance whilst maintaining structural integrity, coupled with a thermoplastic rubber tread that delivers superior grip and floor protection across various surface types. With an overall height of 162 mm, this castor is dimensionally optimised for integration into care beds, catering carts, meal delivery systems, and shower chairs, where space efficiency and ergonomic accessibility are paramount considerations. The load capacity specifications indicate a static load rating of 200 kg, providing substantial support for stationary applications, whilst the dynamic load capacity of 100 kg at 3 km/h ensures safe manoeuvrability during transport and repositioning tasks. This combination of engineering specifications makes the Galea swivel castor an ideal choice for healthcare facilities and food service operations requiring dependable, long-lasting mobility components that meet stringent performance and safety standards.
