Polyurethane Caster for Wheelbarrows and Carts
The Value Brand 1KB23 is a polyurethane-tread wheel on a nylon core built for wheelbarrows and utility carts. It carries a 250 lb load rating and fits axles of 3/8 in with a 1-1/2 in hub length. The wheel measures 5 in in diameter and 1-1/4 in wide with a firm 98 Shore A durometer.
Non-Marking Tread and Delrin Bearing
The polyurethane tread is non-marking so it will not scuff garage floors, patios or indoor surfaces. A Delrin bearing provides smooth rotation without the need for a spanner bushing. The standard tread shape and firm compound keep rolling resistance low on hard or compacted ground.
Plastic Core and Simple Axle Fit
The nylon core resists moisture and will not rust, while the 3/8 in axle bore allows direct installation on many common wheelbarrow and cart frames. No spanner bushing is included, so the wheel mounts with existing hardware. The 1-1/2 in hub length matches standard fork spacing for a secure fit.

Questions about this item
Will the polyurethane tread or the Delrin bearing need replacement first on this 250 lb caster?
The polyurethane tread on the nylon core handles the load and floor contact, while the Delrin bearing manages rotation; wear depends on surface roughness and load consistency rather than a fixed interval.
What limit appears first when this 5 in wheel runs continuously under its 250 lb rating?
Sustained operation at the 250 lb load rating will stress the 98 Shore A polyurethane tread and the Delrin bearing interface, making heat buildup in the tread the practical ceiling.
How much heat and noise does the 98 Shore A polyurethane wheel generate during all-day use?
The firm 98 Shore A polyurethane on a nylon core runs quietly on smooth floors, but continuous rolling under load produces moderate heat in the tread and low mechanical noise from the Delrin bearing.
