  • Controlling Mobility: The Benefits of Swivel Lock Casters

    Ever wanted a great balance of maneuverability and stability? Look to swivel lock casters.

    When engaged, a swivel lock will turn a swivel caster into a rigid caster (also known as a fixed caster) by restricting movement to a single direction instead of moving freely.  Swivel locks can help accommodate the set of specific mobility needs that every industrial warehouse and other environment has. Casters with this additional feature ensure that whatever combination of swivel and rigid casters are needed for an application are readily available and accessible, which means no downtime for your operation. Upgrading your current casters to casters with swivel locks can be expensive, but isn't the only solution if your mobility needs aren't being met. Field-installable swivel locks are available, cost-effective and a cinch to add to your casters.  Continue reading
