Important features for shopping trolley carts

If your shopping trolley fails to run smooth when you are shopping in a supermarket or DIY store, your stress level rises rapidly. Even when fully loaded, shopping trolleys must be easy to push and steer and must have safety mechanisms that prevent the trolley from rolling away. This is not possible with inferior casters: Casters can get stuck, drift in the wrong direction or be difficult to maneuver. 

Sometimes shopping carts have to be pushed along extremely narrow aisles, and if an obstacle is in the way, they must be maneuvered in the tightest of spaces. With the wrong casters this is practically impossible and steering becomes burdensome. On the other hand, high-quality swivel casters allow easy maneuvering in all directions. It is important that the casters have a strong and durable housing to allow them to withstand shocks and impacts. 
The tread material needs to be considered. If the casters leaves marks, this diminishes the appearance of the supermarket. For this environment rubber treads is recommended, as these rarely leave marks, even when heavily loaded. 

Shopping trolleys run smooth with TENTE casters – for young and old alike 
Shopping trolleys can be equipped with TENTE 2875QMP or TENTE 2370PJP castors. Both series have very good running characteristics, a strong housing construction and high-quality bearings. TENTE casters from the 2875QMP range are additionally equipped with an integrated brake shoe, to reduce the risk of the trolley rolling away. TENTE 2370PJP casters have a tread made of thermoplastic rubber, the innovative Supratech. They are available in different sizes: Casters with a small wheel diameter can also be used for children's shopping trolleys.
