Casters for Food Processing & Washdown

Washdown kills ordinary casters: caustic cleaners, hot water and salt attack the raceway and the plating, then the wheel seizes mid-shift. The RM-Clean series builds the whole load path in stainless steel — bracket, raceway, axle and fittings.

SS304 covers standard washdown; SS316 is specified where chlorides, brine or marine air are present.

Swivel torque tested per batch so wet trolleys stay predictable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need SS316?

For plain washdown 304 is enough. Near salt, brine or aggressive chloride cleaners, specify 316.
