Ynot Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Been trying to find some caster type wheels to fit in the end of standard scaff tube, but can I find any...It's most likely t be a terminology thing - ie - call them what the manufacturers do and bingo! Scanned the Flints catalogue as well, to no avail yet. Any suggestions?(Preferably from those that know, rather than 3 pages of guesses...?) I need them to put on the end of decking legs to create a mobile set piece...So they need to be sturdy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themadhippy Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Try page 2.61 of the flints catalogue, part no CAS313 or CAS314 or just search for scaffold castor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danburns Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 If you've got a current catalogue, try bottom of page 2.61 :P They look identical to ones I've used with steeldeck before, so they're sturdy too! E2A madhippy beat me to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the kid Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I don't know what the pictures are like, but the ones that I bought that were marked "unbraked" are in fact with brake, but its only a small screw in job not the big leaver brake's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billy bobinski Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 If you're looking for some seriously heavy duty and rated ones, with good brakes, you need Boss mobile alloy scaffold wheels. I think that they are part of the SGB/Youngman group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as you can imagine there were THOUSANDS of hits, and few I tried were too helpful at the time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
