UKEN Caster Wheel – Nylon Swivel with Brake – U5465B — BOLTON SKU 59142.
About the UKEN U5465B Castor Wheel, Nylon Swivel, Brake
This is a UKEN castor supplied under manufacturer reference U5465B, built as a swivel unit with an integral brake and a nylon wheel. A swivel castor carries its wheel on an offset fork that rotates about a vertical raceway, so the wheel trails and steers itself as the trolley or frame is pushed; the brake locks the assembly so the equipment stays put once it is positioned. Nylon is chosen as a wheel material where a hard, low-rolling-resistance tread is wanted: it rolls easily on smooth concrete and tiled floors, resists water, oils and many workshop chemicals, and does not pick up debris the way a soft tread can, at the cost of transmitting more noise and vibration than a rubber or polyurethane wheel. Wheel diameter, load rating and the top-plate or stem mounting pattern are not carried in this designation — state the fitting and the load you need to carry with your enquiry and we will confirm them against the manufacturer’s data before quoting.

Typical applications
A braked U5465B swivel castor wheel of this type is fitted to workshop and tool trolleys, parts and stores racking, packing and inspection benches, mobile equipment stands and site cabinets — anywhere a unit has to be repositioned by hand and then held steady while it is worked on. Nylon wheels suit indoor hard floors in workshops, stores and hangars. A common arrangement is to fit swivel castors on one end and fixed castors on the other, with brakes on at least two corners, so the assembly steers predictably and locks securely.
