Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the CA 11-CI-623-3-S caster assembly?
A: The CA 11-CI-623-3-S is a swivel caster assembly featuring a cast iron wheel, designed for 11 Series stocking carts. Cast iron wheels provide high durability and are suited for heavy-duty industrial environments.
Q: What are the specifications of the CA 11-CI-623-3-S?
A: The CA 11-CI-623-3-S features a 6 inch diameter cast iron wheel with a swivel mounting design. The cast iron core provides strength for high-load applications. Confirm wheel diameter and load capacity match your cart requirements before ordering.
Q: Is the CA 11-CI-623-3-S different from the CA 11-CI-623-S?
A: The CA 11-CI-623-3-S and CA 11-CI-623-S are both cast iron swivel casters for 11 Series carts. The suffix difference may indicate configuration, bearing, or mounting variation. Verify the specific model number of your equipment to ensure proper fitment.
Q: Why choose cast iron wheels over polyurethane?
A: Cast iron wheels are harder and more durable than polyurethane, making them ideal for uneven floors, outdoor use, and heavy-duty industrial applications. Cast iron is more durable but generates more noise and vibration and provides less traction on smooth floors.
Q: What maintenance do cast iron wheels require?
A: Inspect cast iron wheels regularly for cracks, chipping, or flat spots. Clean debris and buildup from the wheel surface. Lubricate the swivel bearing pivot point. Cast iron is lower maintenance than polyurethane but requires inspection for impact damage.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of the CA 11-CI-623-3-S?
A: Cast iron caster wheels typically last 5 to 7 years or longer in standard industrial use. Heavy-duty continuous operations may result in faster wear. Replace if the wheel cracks, develops flat spots, or the swivel bearing seizes.
