Medium duty casters are designed to support and move moderately heavy loads. The capacity of a typical caster falls within a range of 500 to 1,200 pounds per caster. It is greater than light duty caster capacity, but less than the capacity of heavy duty caster. Thus, medium duty casters can provide a balance between light duty and heavy duty caster capacity.
Medium duty casters can be used to transport semi-heavy objects such as medical equipment, industrial carts, podiums, and laboratory instruments. They are also capable of supporting large items like safes or refrigerators in office settings. Overall, you can find medium duty casters in various industries and applications.

Brake options: Certain medium duty casters have brakes which are used to prevent the wheels from rolling, helpful during loading and unloading stuff of large weight.
