Dual Wheel / Pivoting Axle

Load Capacity Up to 26,400 lbs.
The use of Pivoting Axle Casters assures that if one wheel goes on a higher surface, the axle will pivot to keep both wheels under load. It is essential when handling heavy loads that both wheels remain on the ground at all times to avoid an over-stress condition. Pivoting Axles are available on the 10-98K/VXDW, 10-98K/VYDW and 10-98K/VZDW Series Casters
