Caster Brake Kit, Face Contact, 4 in

This kit supplies a face-contact brake for a single wheel up to 4 inches in diameter and 2 inches wide. The thermoplastic construction resists corrosion and weighs little. It is intended for wheelbarrows, garden carts and similar yard equipment. No lock mechanism is included in the package.

Suits owners replacing a worn face brake

Buyers who need a locking brake or a kit that includes the lock hardware should look elsewhere. The kit is also unsuitable for wheels wider than 2 inches or larger than 4 inches. Anyone requiring a different brake style or mounting pattern will need another solution.

Face-contact brake for 4 in wheel, 2 in width

The critical specification is the face-contact design matched to a 4-inch wheel with a 2-inch width. If your wheel differs in diameter, width or brake type, this kit will not fit. Verify both measurements before ordering.

Questions about this item

How do I install the face-contact brake on a 2 in wheel and what step do people miss?

Slide the brake bracket over the wheel hub so the thermoplastic face presses flat against the tyre tread, then tighten the mounting bolts evenly; the step most people miss is checking that the brake arm swings clear of the frame before final torque.

What maintenance or replacement will this caster brake kit need later?

The thermoplastic contact face will wear down with use; inspect it each season and replace the pad when the braking surface becomes thin or glazed.

What limit appears first under sustained use of this brake kit?

Heat buildup in the thermoplastic face reduces friction first, so prolonged downhill loads will cause fade before any mechanical part fails.
