CA 11-MP-623-S-FCWB

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the complete specifications for the CA 11-MP-623-S-FCWB?
A: The CA 11-MP-623-S-FCWB is a 6 inch swivel caster with full brake for 11 Series stocking carts. It features a cast iron wheel core with mold-on polyurethane tread, zinc-plated steel frame, and sealed precision ball bearing for smooth operation with integrated locking capability.

Q: What does sealed precision ball bearing mean and why does it matter?
A: The sealed precision ball bearing in the CA 11-MP-623-S-FCWB provides smooth swivel action while keeping contaminants and moisture out of the bearing. Sealed bearings require minimal maintenance and deliver reliable performance in warehouse environments.

Q: What is the full brake feature and how is it different from the CA 11-MP-623-S?
A: The full brake (FCWB) on the CA 11-MP-623-S-FCWB locks both the wheel rotation and swivel motion, completely immobilizing the caster. This is more comprehensive than a wheel brake alone and is essential when carts must be held stationary in high-traffic areas or during loading and unloading.

Q: Why is the zinc-plated steel frame important?
A: The zinc-plated steel frame on the CA 11-MP-623-S-FCWB provides corrosion resistance and durability in warehouse and industrial settings. Zinc plating protects the steel from rust and extends the caster assembly lifespan, especially in humid or outdoor storage areas.

Q: How does the cast iron wheel core affect performance compared to steel core?
A: The cast iron wheel core in the CA 11-MP-623-S-FCWB provides strength and stability under load. Cast iron cores absorb vibration and wear evenly, supporting the 6 inch polyurethane tread and enabling reliable swivel motion with full brake engagement.
