Frequently Asked Questions
Advantages of Castors with Brakes
Castors with brakes are designed to provide secure mobility and precise control by combining smooth movement with reliable locking mechanisms. Engineered with durable materials and integrated braking systems, they ensure stability and safety when needed - both when moving and when stationary.
TENTE castors with brakes offer various benefits:
Increased Safety - The locking mechanism stops unexpected movement, giving you peace of mind and stability.
Secure Locking - Ensures your application stays securely in place when needed, preventing any unwanted movement.
Increased Efficiency - A secure application leads to a safer and more productive work environment, allowing for more efficient workflows.
Durability - TENTE castors are built to withstand heavy loads and frequent use without compromising on reliability.
Types of Castor Braking Mechanisms
In professional terms, the brake mechanism is usually referred to as a locking mechanism. There are several types of locking mechanisms for castors, each offering unique benefits for different needs:
Wheel Brake
A wheel brake is a manually operated pedal lock that prevents unitended movement of the wheel, while allowing the castor to swivel freely. This locking mechanism is ideal for applications, like a workstation or trolley, that need to stay still but also require easy movement.
Directional Lock
A directional locking mechanism allow to lock the swivel, while still allowing the castor wheel to rotate. Ideal for improved steering around bends, as well as for moving in a straight line over a long distance.
Total Lock
This locks both the wheel and the swivel housing, preventing all castor movement. A total lock is perfect for equipment that needs a secure standing.
Central Lock
A central lock allows for a simultaneous locking of more than one castor using a central actuation lever. A central locking mechanism can be combined directional and total locking castors, as well as with a wheel brake mechanism. Combined directional lock for improved steering around bends, as well as movement in a straight line over long distances. Also a total lock for simultaneously locking the wheel and swivel housing for a secure standing.
Intermittent Lock
The intermittent lock engages when any weight is put on the castor. In most cases, this locking mechanism prevents motion by stopping operation until the load is removed. Intermittent brakes are often used for application like office chairs or other furniture.
Fields of Application for Castors with Brakes
Castors with brakes are used in a wide range of industries, providing both mobility and stability when needed. In an industrial environment, they for example help move heavy machinery and transport carts while ensuring they stay securely in place during operation. Medical equipment like hospital beds and rolling IV stands rely on them for smooth movement combined with a firm lock when stationary. In a logistics setting, they keep applications like picking trolleys and roll cages manoeuvrable yet secure when loading or unloading goods. Retail and commercial spaces benefit from them in display units and mobile workstations, offering flexibility while preventing unwanted movement. Even in furniture and home applications, they’re found on office chairs, media furniture and storage units, making everyday tasks easier. No matter the industry, braked castors strike the perfect balance between movement and control, improving safety, efficiency, and convenience.
