Frequently Asked Questions
Advantages of Medium Duty Castors
Medium duty castors combine robust load capacity with versatile performance, designed to handle between 150 and 500 kg per castor. They bridge the gap between light and heavy-duty solutions, offering the strength required for substantial loads while maintaining smooth, responsive movement. This makes them a dependable choice for a wide range of professional applications, from industrial transport to commercial equipment, where consistent mobility and stability are essential.
TENTE medium duty castors offer several key benefits:
Durable Construction – Constructed from durable materials and engineered for longevity, these castors are built to endure frequent use while resisting wear, impact, and challenging floor conditions.
Adaptable Wheel Options – Available with a wide range of tread materials to suit different floor types and operating environments — from softer, floor-protecting treads to harder, low-resistance options for smooth industrial flooring.
Versatile Mounting Solutions – Plate, stem, and bolt hole fittings ensure compatibility with various equipment designs, enabling easy integration into existing systems.
Increased Safety – For secure positioning during use or when stationary, these castors can be equipped with total locks, directional locks, or other locking mechanism, depending on your operational needs.
Types of Medium Duty Castors
Medium duty castors come in a wide variety of designs to meet the demands of different load requirements, floor conditions, and manoeuvring needs. Whether you require smooth swivelling for tight spaces, fixed-direction stability for straight runs, or specialised features such as noise reduction or electrical conductivity, there is a medium duty solution to match. By selecting the right combination of wheel material, bearing type, and housing design, you can optimise both performance and service life for your specific application. Below are some of the commonly used types of medium duty castors and their key advantages:
Medium Duty Swivel Castors
Medium duty swivel castors are designed for smooth, controlled movement in any direction, making them ideal for manoeuvring equipment through tight spaces, around machinery, or along complex pathways. The performance of these castors is closely linked to the wheel tread and its compatibility with the floor surface. By selecting the right tread for the operating environment, medium duty swivel castors deliver smooth handling, long service life, and reliable performance in industrial, medical and commercial applications. One representative product line in our range is the TENTE Alpha series, which combines robust design with a wide variety of configuration options. This series offers medium duty swivel castors with load capacities ranging up to 500 kg per castor, depending on size and specification. Wheel diameters are available from 80 mm to 200 mm, with different tread materials — including thermoplastic rubber, polyurethane, and abrasion-resistant polyamide options — to suit diverse floor conditions.
Medium Duty Fixed Castors
Fixed castors offer consistent, straight-line travel, providing stability and directional control for equipment that needs to cover longer distances without frequent steering adjustments. Commonly paired with swivel castors in a two-fixed, two-swivel configuration, they create an optimal blend of stability and manoeuvrability. Built to withstand the full medium duty load range, these castors deliver dependable performance even in demanding medical, industrial or logistics settings. Our portfolio features different variations of fixed castors within the load range, including housing options like heavy pressed steel or stainless steel, wheel options like abrasion-resistant polyamide, electrically conductive polyurethane treads, non-marking elastic-tires and many more.
Medium Duty Stainless Steel Castors
When corrosion resistance is as important as strength, stainless steel medium duty castors offer the perfect solution. Resistant to cleaning chemicals, moisture, and temperature changes, they are particularly suited to hygiene-critical or moisture-rich environments like food production facilities, hospitals, and laboratories. Their robust design ensures a long service life without compromising cleanliness or mobility. The TENTE Alpha stainless series is one example from our product portfolio, offering load capacities of up to 500 kg per castor depending on size and configuration. Wheel diameters are available from 80 mm to 200 mm, with options like non-marking vulcanized elastic tires or solid rubber, abrasion-resistant polyamide, and many more to match different floor conditions. The housings are made from high-grade stainless steel, ensuring both durability and resistance to corrosion.
Fields of Application for Medium Duty Castors
Medium duty castors are a versatile solution for applications across industrial, medical, and commercial sectors where both strength and mobility are essential. In manufacturing environments, they are a reliable choice for applications like transport equipment, production trolleys, mobile work benches and many more that must carry substantial loads without sacrificing manoeuvrability. In logistics, they are often used on roll cages, roll pallets, shopping trolleys and more, ensuring smooth handling even when fully loaded. In hygiene-critical environments such as hospitals, laboratories, and food production facilities, options like stainless steel medium duty castors provide the necessary corrosion resistance and easy cleaning properties for compliance with strict standards. In commercial spaces, they support mobile shelving, display units, catering carts, and more, offering stable, controlled movement on a variety of floor surfaces. By selecting the correct combination of housing material, wheel tread, and bearing type, medium duty castors can be adapted to perform reliably on anything from polished indoor floors to uneven outdoor surfaces — making them an all-rounder for applications where durability, adaptability, and smooth operation are non-negotiable.
