Forged Steel Dual Wheel Casters
Series HS2 & EHD2 - Cap. to 7,000 lbs.

#S-EHD2-83SYT70 Swivel w/ Superlast® XC Wheels



#S-HS2-4SPB
Swivel w/ Poly-Soft® Wheels.


The Dual Wheel Extra Heavy Duty (EHD2) Series now features Hamilton’s Precision Integrated HPI™ Swivel Technology. The new technology outperforms conventional CNC-machined ball raceways, kingpinless, and unit load bearing swivel constructions. The HS2 Series comes standard with conventional steel ball raceway technology and can be upgraded to the HPI™ Swivel Technology as an option, consult the factory.
Dual wheel casters address the problem of how to minimize overall height and maximize load capacity on resilient tread wheels. Dual wheel casters also improve stability and swivel more easily than wider-face single wheels because differential action reduces the "scrubbing" effect of soft treads against the floors.

These forged steel dual wheel casters are built on the proven and reliable Heavy Service (HS) and Extra Heavy Duty (EHD) swivel caster platforms. This means you have lots of flexibility if you need to match an existing bolthole pattern or overall height dimension. For dual wheel casters with even higher load capacities, see the MDD Series.


OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES

Swivel Lock–4 position (-4SL) –convert swivel to rigid for straight line steering, robotically welded housing & CNC-milled slots assure long lasting, trouble-free performance.

The HS2 Series can be upgraded to Hamilton’s new HPI™ Swivel Technology, consult factory for pricing.

Sealed Swivel Assembly (-SS) not available with swivel lock.
