Frequently asked questions

Common questions about HAMILTON from 3G Electric.

What wheel materials are available in Hamilton extreme-duty plate casters?

Hamilton extreme-duty plate casters are available with nylon, polyurethane, and steel wheels. Nylon wheels, such as those in SKU 6AZN4, offer high load capacity and resistance to impact, often used in applications where floor protection is less critical. Polyurethane wheels, like those in SKU 55HA30, provide a balance of load capacity and floor protection, reducing noise and marking. Steel wheels, as seen in SKU 55HA32, are used for maximum load capacity and resistance to harsh environments. The choice depends on the specific application requirements, including load weight, floor surface, and operating conditions.

What is the difference between ball bearings and roller bearings in Hamilton casters?

Hamilton casters use either ball bearings or roller bearings in their wheels. Ball bearings, found in SKU 6AZN4, are typically used for lighter loads and higher speeds, providing smooth rolling with lower friction. Roller bearings, as in SKU 55HA30, are designed for heavier loads and shock loads, offering greater contact area and durability. Roller bearings are common in extreme-duty applications where high weight capacities and frequent movement are expected. The bearing type affects the caster's load capacity, rolling resistance, and maintenance requirements. Selection should be based on the application's load and speed demands.

Are Hamilton plate casters available with brakes?

Yes, many Hamilton extreme-duty plate casters are available with face brakes. For example, SKU 55HA30, 55HA32, 55HA27, 55HA29, 55HA28, 55HA34, and 55HA31 all feature a face brake. This brake design allows the operator to lock the wheel in place, preventing movement during loading, unloading, or when the equipment is stationary. Casters without brakes, such as SKU 6AZN4, are also available for applications where braking is not required. The brake option is specified in the caster type, such as 'Swivel with Brake' versus 'Swivel'.

What are the typical mounting heights for Hamilton extreme-duty plate casters?

Hamilton extreme-duty plate casters have mounting heights ranging from 10 inches to 13 inches, depending on the wheel diameter and caster design. For instance, SKU 55HA31 has a 6-inch wheel and a 10-inch mounting height, while SKU 55HA27 has a 10-inch wheel and a 13-inch mounting height. The mounting height is measured from the floor to the top of the mounting plate and is critical for ensuring that the caster fits the equipment and maintains the correct deck height. It is important to match the mounting height to the existing caster or design requirements.

Can Hamilton casters be used in high-temperature or washdown environments?

Hamilton casters are available in various materials that may suit different environments. Steel wheels and casters, such as SKU 55HA32, are generally more resistant to high temperatures and harsh conditions than nylon or polyurethane. However, specific temperature ratings and washdown capabilities depend on the individual product specifications. For washdown or corrosive environments, stainless steel or special coatings may be required, but these are not indicated in the provided product data. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's specifications for each caster to determine suitability for high-temperature or washdown applications.
