Castors
Castors for medical equipment
Medical replacement castors or wheels are available in many models. For example fixed castors do not rotate and thus provide directional stability to the medical equipment. Fixed or rigid castors are good for use on smooth surfaces and for medical equipment that need to be kept in a fixed position. On the other hand, swivel castors can rotate around. With swivel castors you can move medical equipment in all directions as they can rotate in 360 degrees. Braked castors have a locking mechanism that keeps the medical equipment in a fixed position. Furthermore treaded castors have a tread pattern and a steel band that provide better traction and stability. Our replacement castors are used globally for different medical equipment like patient lifts, hospital beds, shower chairs, transport carts and mobile furniture.
Castors for hospitals and care facilities
Wherever you look within the hospital you can be sure that you will spot castors quickly. Take a glance at the bottom of your hospital equipment such as laundry carts, IV poles, mobile workstations, food carts and you will notice the presence of medical castors wheels. In all key areas of the hospitals, castors are used and therefore part of the safe and smooth operation. Use our interactive castor navigator to select the department or room within the hospital to find your castor wheels.
