4" x 1-3/16" Shock Absorbing Rigid Caster with Brake - Part# 7M-GDS100BRF-KO

*Part number with US Mounting Plate Option: 7M-GDS100BRF-US

This spring loaded caster is the premium shock absorbing caster available for loads requiring 300 pounds of capacity or less. Not only does it protect sensitive equipment from shock loads and vibration but it also reduces noise during transportation and has the ability to roll over obstructions. 

The 7M-GDS Series features a special NBR rubber based spring system instead of conventional metal springs. This eliminates shortened service life due to rust or loss of tension within standard metal springs. Additionally, the NBR rubber offers a softer, more ergonomic ride with less recoil when the caster goes over obstacles. With multiple wheel and mounting options, the 7M-GDS Series is the go-to series for a wide variety of applications. This caster is RoHS and CE Mark compliant.
