Heavy and Medium-Duty Brakes

Product catalog summary

Poly Cam Wheel Brake (PCWB)
The PCWB is designed for heavy-duty applications, including aerospace and military use. It features an adjustable pad that compresses against a non-skid metal to prevent wheel rotation, with adjustable pressure to compensate for wheel wear over time.

Field Installable Face Contact Brake (ICWB)
The ICWB is ideal for 2” wide wheels, particularly medium-duty casters like Kingpinless. It uses a pedal to rotate a metal pad that locks the wheel, and it is compatible with swivel locks.

Side Action Wheel Tread Brake (WBT)
Available on the 46 Series, the WBT applies force directly to the wheel tread and can be used with swivel locks, offering a better option than the WB.

Field Installable Cam Wheel Brake (FICWB)
This is a field-installable version of the CWB, suitable for the 75 & 76 Series with various bearings on wheels ranging from 6” to 12”.

Side Tread Brake (STB)
Available on the 45 Series, the STB applies force directly to the wheel tread and can be used with swivel locks, providing a better option than the WB.

Face Contact Wheel Brake (FCWB)
Primarily used on pneumatic casters, the FCWB uses a T-handle screw to compress a brake shoe against the wheel face, offering significant adjustment.

Face Contact Nylon Brake (FCNB)
Available on the S45 & 46 Series, this corrosion-resistant nylon brake applies force directly to the wheel tread.

Field Installable Side Wheel Brake (WB)
Designed for 4” to 8” diameter, 2” wide wheels with roller bearings, this economical brake is used in general applications like maintenance carts and work tables.

Face Contact Nylon Total Lock Brake (FCNTLB)
Available on the S45 & 46 Series, this brake locks both wheel and swivel action and is corrosion-resistant.

Field Installable Wrap Around Side Brake (WWB)
Operates similarly to the side wheel brake but is operable from more locations, fitting 2” wide wheels only.

Metal Installable Face Contact Brake (MICWB)
Featuring an aluminum pedal, the MICWB is suitable for 2” wide medium-duty casters, especially Kingpinless, and functions with swivel locks.

Face Contact Steel Total Lock Brake (FCSTLB)
Available on the 46 Series, this front-mounted brake locks both wheel and swivel action, recommended for total lock needs in general-purpose applications.

Cam Wheel Brake (CWB)
Designed for 3” wide casters, the CWB uses a pedal to engage a non-skid pad against the wheel, suitable for general applications like carts and assembly lines.
