Hamilton Cush-N-Aires have become widely recognized as the leading pneumatic-tired casters in the industry. The quality that earned this reputation continues without compromise: all swivels are S.A.E. 1045 drop forged steel with an integrally forged kingpin and precision tapered thrust bearing to ensure easy swiveling and longer life.
Ideal For Handling:
- Missle Components
- Electronic Equipment
- Ceramics
- Liquids
- Rough Surfaces
Pneumatic tires offer variable flotation: reduce inflation pressure to improve cushioning for lighter loads, or inflate fully for optimum rollability and capacity loads.
- Swivel Construction — Drop forged steel mounting plate and horn base. Legs 1/4" thick on 8" and 10" models; 3/8" on 12" and 16" models.
- Kingpin — Integrally forged with mounting plate, 3/4" diameter on 8" and 10" models; 1" diameter on 12" and 16" models.
- Main Load Bearing — Large diameter raceway machined for hardened and polished steel balls.
- Secondary Load Bearing — Precision tapered roller bearing capped with grease retainer.
- Axle — Bolt and nut type: 1/2" diameter on 8" and 10" models; 3/4" diameter on 12" models; 1" diameter on 16" models.
- Tires — 8", 10", 12" and 7016-PR are 4-ply rated; 70166-PR is 6-ply rated.
- 8" and 10" top plates: 4-1/2" x 6-1/2", slotted bolt holes.
- 12" and 16" swivel top plates: 6-1/8" x 7-1/2", slotted bolt holes.
- 12" and 16" rigid top plates: 5-1/2" x 7-1/2", slotted bolt holes.
Featured Wheel Bearing:
Precision Ball Bearing - double sealed, maintenance free, superior rollability aids manual applications, not recommended if shock loading is prevalent.
Precision Tapered Roller Bearing - best for most severe heavy duty or all power-towed applications
Straight Roller Bearing - traditional anti-friction bearing, best for manual applications where shock loading (but no side thrust) is prevalent.
