Swivel Plate Caster 3 in 176 lb
This swivel plate caster is built for carts, wheelbarrows and similar yard equipment that need a single wheel with a 3 in diameter. The polyurethane tread on a polyolefin core is non-marking and rated for a 175 lb load capacity. It suits DIY owners and maintenance crews who want a durable, floor-friendly wheel for light hauling tasks.
Sustained load behaviour
Under continuous use the polyurethane tread resists flat-spotting better than softer rubber compounds, keeping rolling resistance steady over long runs. The swivel race turns freely without a lock, so the caster tracks straight when pushed but pivots easily around corners. No brake is fitted, so the wheel will roll freely on slopes unless the equipment has its own stopping method.
Deciding specification
The 175 lb load rating is the single figure that determines whether this caster fits the job; exceeding it risks premature wear or sudden failure. Buyers who need a higher capacity or a wheel with an integrated brake will have to select a different model. The 3 in wheel diameter also limits clearance over rough ground compared with larger options.

Questions about this item
Does the 175 lb load rating on the 3 in polyurethane wheel stay stable when the caster runs all day on concrete?
The polyurethane tread on a polyolefin core is non-marking and rated for 175 lb continuous rolling on hard floors without flattening.
What mounting hardware must I already have to bolt this plate caster to my cart frame?
You need four bolts or screws that match the plate hole pattern and are long enough to penetrate your frame material securely.
Will the 1 1/4 in wheel width on this caster line up with the axle spacing on my older wheelbarrow?
The single 3 in diameter wheel fits standard 1 1/4 in hub bores, so it matches most legacy wheelbarrow and cart axles directly.
