Take a look at your shopping cart casters

Are your shopping carts ready?

The fall shopping season is upon us. 


To make sure that you order the correct replacement wheels for your shopping cart, here is a helpful chart to show you the different measurements:




1 Overall Height - The vertical distance between the floor and the mounting plane of the equipment. 

2 Offset - The horizontal distance between vertical center lines through the kingpin and the wheel center. (Not shown in diagram) 

3 Swivel Radius - The horizontal distance from the vertical centerline of the kingpin to the outside edge of the wheel tread. This dimension specifies the minimum distance required for the caster to swivel 360° when mounted. 

4 Wheel Diameter 

5 Tread Width

Class III electric lift trucks need stability casters?

Class III Electric lift trucks are electric pallet jacks you'll usually encounter as both walk-behind (walkie) and rider models. Counterbalanced walk behind stackers and units featuring straddle legs also fall into this category.

These will have vertical or horizontal movement and lift loads ranging from 2,000 - 8,000 lbs. The operator position is always in the front of the truck and controls the equipment through a steering tiller. All controls are mounted on the top of the tiller and the tiller is moved side to side to steer the truck. 

Most equipment in this category lifts loads only a few inches off the ground however the stackers lift to heights commonly found on forklifts. This class of equipment is typically used to unload delivery trucks and are best for short distances to a staging area or in small warehouses.

So why the need for stability casters?  

A stabilizer caster evens out the load balance by providing another point of contact with the ground in addition to the Drive Tire at the driver position and the load bearing wheels under the forks. They also feature shock performance to stabilize the load as it corners. Acting as a shock also reduces wear on the electrical components. Onboard chargers, tiller cards, and motor controllers are just a few examples of components you'll replace less often when utilizing a high-quality stabilizer caster.  

All stabilizer casters are not created equal. When replacing an OEM caster or converting stabilizer bar to a caster, you'll get the most bang for your buck when you trust Generic Parts Service with your order.

The stabilizer casters we feature are engineered as a drop-in replacement for Crown, Hyster, Yale, and Raymond electric lift trucks.
  • Less height and performance deterioration over time than traditional metal springs for reliable and consistent performance. Advanced technology includes a premium polyurethane block to replace the use of unreliable metal springs while also providing greater stability in cornering.  
  • Premium polyurethane block technology creates greater stability by reducing oscillation and rocking effect the equipment experiences. 
  • Important heavy-duty construction with 0.25" thick steel plates and with minimum welds to reduce weak spots. 
  • Convenient Height Adjustments offer an easy three-position adjustment bolt to eliminate the hassle of additional spacers
  • Uses a larger wheel (4" O.D.) with the toughest polyurethane compound available and high quality sealed bearings for a longer wheel life 
  • Rust-Proof Zinc plated parts and a greasable wheel or axle for corrosive environments 
  • Less downtime means higher productivity!


I have a skid plate, can I upgrade to the caster?

From the factory, some walkie pallet jacks feature a skid plate and not the caster assembly. This design has its limits and will never provide the benefits of reduced electrical repairs or true load stability. Our stabilizer casters feature the same bolt pattern and are an easy solution to upgrade your equipment.

The Yale MPB 040 E is an example of one model you can replace the skid plate with our premium stabilizer caster.
