Faultless (a Colson Group brand) built the 1400 series as its everyday industrial workhorse for platform trucks, dollies, warehouse carts and commercial equipment — and this is the hard-to-find single with the brake, for when one caster in a set fails and the other three are still good.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe phenolic (Plaskite®) wheel is phenolic resin reinforced with macerated fabric, compression-molded for high strength and impact resistance. It carries metal-wheel loads without developing a flat spot under standing loads, is non-marking, non-conductive and spark-proof, resists oil, gasoline and dilute acids, and is rated from -40°F to +300°F — the brown fabric band visible at the center of the tread in the photos is that reinforcement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePress the ON pedal to set the face-contact brake against the wheel; press OFF to roll. The zinc-plated rig has a double ball bearing swivel raceway with grease fittings at the swivel and axle for serviceable, long life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy phenolic?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHighest load capacity per dollar of any standard wheel, no flat-spotting when parked loaded, and it rolls easily on smooth concrete and hard floors.
