As highlighted in the article “Hamilton introduces New 7100 Series – Heavy Duty Pneumatic Casters” by Hamilton Caster, a groundbreaking advancement in industrial mobility is taking shape. Introduces the impressive 7100 Series Pneumatic-tired Casters, bringing together Hamilton’s renowned heavy-duty construction with a compact, highly sought-after top plate measuring 4” x 5”. This top plate is zinc-plated to ensure resistance against rust and wear. These casters are not only backed by Hamilton’s three-year product warranty but are also eligible for the Same Day Pronto shipment service.
The design of the swivel construction within this series is no less than extraordinary, comprising a drop forged steel top plate and horn base. The legs are constructed from ¼” plate steel, expertly robotically welded both internally and externally to the horn base. Additionally, a ¾” diameter integrally forged steel kingpin, carrying Hamilton’s lifetime guarantee against failure, is incorporated. To guarantee seamless swiveling under heavy loads, the 7100 Series incorporates two precisely machined swivel bearing surfaces – a 2 ½” diameter main load raceway, and a precision tapered secondary load bearing engineered to counteract radial thrust.
Available in wheel sizes ranging from 8” diameter (2.80/2.50-4) up to 12” diameter (4.10/3.50-6), the new 4” x 5” top plate offers a choice between straight roller bearings or precision tapered roller bearings within the wheels. Moreover, larger wheel sizes, from 16” to 25”, are offered in the series, accompanied by larger top plates. Hamilton stocks the most popular sizes to ensure Same Day Pronto Shipment, guaranteeing timely access to these advanced casters.
The pneumatic-tired casters are particularly effective at cushioning loads and exhibiting excellent performance on paved or concrete surfaces. This series finds its ideal applications in aerospace ground support equipment, including both power towed and manual operations. Furthermore, it is well-suited for the transportation of sensitive cargo such as military weaponry, and any other equipment requiring meticulous care during transport.
