ALBION

ALBION is a manufacturer of industrial casters and wheels, with a product line that spans medium-duty, heavy-duty, and corrosion-resistant configurations. The brand is recognized for its range of plate casters, including swivel and rigid models, available in wheel diameters from 3 1/4 in to 8 in and wheel widths up to 2 in. ALBION casters are offered with various wheel materials—polyurethane, iron, phenolic, and polyolefin—each selected for specific load-bearing and environmental requirements. Wheel bearing types include roller and ball bearings, and mounting heights range from 6 1/2 in to 10 1/8 in, depending on the model. The product families represented in 3G Electric's inventory include Easy-Roll Maintenance-Free Plate Casters, Medium-Duty Plate Casters, and Heavy-Duty General-Purpose Kingpinless Plate Casters. These casters are designed for applications that require reliable mobility under consistent loads, with options for swivel or rigid configurations and brake types such as face brakes or no brake. ALBION casters are built to meet industrial standards for durability, with wheel/tread colors including orange, yellow, and black, indicating different material compositions. The brand's focus on medium- to heavy-duty applications makes its products suitable for material handling equipment, carts, and industrial machinery where floor protection and load capacity are critical. 3G Electric supplies ALBION casters globally, supporting procurement specialists and maintenance managers with a selection that includes models with slot or rectangular mounting plates, ensuring compatibility with standard equipment. The technical specifications provided for each SKU—such as wheel diameter, width, mounting height, bearing type, and caster type—allow engineers to match the caster to the operational requirements without ambiguity. ALBION's product range does not include specialized certifications beyond standard industrial manufacturing practices, and the brand is not associated with any widely known awards or partnerships. The casters are designed for general industrial use, with no claims of extreme-environment performance unless explicitly stated in the product specifications. 3G Electric's catalog of ALBION casters provides a straightforward selection for buyers who need verified dimensions and load ratings, with no marketing embellishments.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about ALBION from 3G Electric.

What wheel materials are available for ALBION casters from 3G Electric?

ALBION casters supplied by 3G Electric are available with wheel materials including polyurethane, iron, phenolic, and polyolefin. Polyurethane wheels offer floor protection and quiet operation, iron wheels provide high load capacity and durability, phenolic wheels resist moisture and chemicals, and polyolefin wheels are lightweight and corrosion-resistant. Each material is selected based on the application's load, floor surface, and environmental conditions.

What is the difference between swivel and rigid ALBION plate casters?

Swivel ALBION plate casters have a rotating head that allows the wheel to turn 360 degrees, enabling maneuverability in tight spaces. Rigid casters have a fixed head, providing straight-line tracking and stability for applications like carts or machinery that move in a single direction. Both types are available in medium-duty and heavy-duty configurations, with options for brakes on swivel models.

What bearing types are used in ALBION casters?

ALBION casters use roller bearings or ball bearings, depending on the model. Roller bearings are suited for moderate loads and speeds, offering good shock absorption. Ball bearings handle higher speeds and lighter loads with less friction. The bearing type is specified in the product details, allowing buyers to select based on the operational speed and load requirements.

Are ALBION casters suitable for outdoor use?

ALBION casters are designed primarily for indoor industrial use, but some models with polyolefin or phenolic wheels can withstand occasional outdoor exposure. For continuous outdoor use, consider corrosion-resistant options or consult the specific wheel material's environmental resistance. The product specifications do not include IP ratings, so buyers should verify suitability based on the wheel material and application.

How do I determine the correct mounting height for an ALBION caster?

The mounting height is the distance from the mounting plate to the bottom of the wheel. ALBION casters in 3G Electric's catalog list mounting heights ranging from 6 1/2 in to 10 1/8 in. To select the correct height, measure the existing caster's mounting height or the clearance needed for your equipment. Ensure the total height matches the equipment's design to maintain proper load distribution and clearance.

What brake options are available for ALBION swivel casters?

ALBION swivel casters are available with no brake or with a face brake. The face brake locks the wheel by pressing a brake pad against the wheel tread, preventing rotation. This is suitable for applications requiring stationary positioning. Rigid casters typically do not include brakes, but swivel models with brakes provide additional control for mobile equipment.
