[Heavy Duty Swivel Castors](https://www.nuovatecnica.com/#girevoli) [Heavy Duty Swivel Castors with Brake](https://www.nuovatecnica.com/#girevoli-con-freno) [Heavy duty rigid casters](https://www.nuovatecnica.com/#rigide) Nuova Tecnica's high load capacity industrial castors are built for the best sliding properties on all types of flooring such as asphalt, concrete and stoneware. These industrial wheels also maintain their grip even in contact with various oils and greases and chemicals such as acids and salt solutions, making them the ideal solution when moving machinery or heavy industrial equipment in the mechanical and metalworking industries. Heavy duty industrial castors come in different designs: rigid, swivel, or swivel with brake. They generally have an upper plate, which is also fixed or swivel, attached to the load by bolts. The correct assembly of the individual components guarantees their exceptional resilience and weight resistance. ## Industrial Heavy Duty Swivel Castors High-capacity industrial swivel castors are a particularly useful solution in warehouses, lines, and other industrial and non-industrial contexts where space is not so large. In this case, having the support of four industrial swivel castors makes it possible to have towing and/or pushing from all sides and to be able to turn the machinery on its own axis. This solution is therefore advantageous when manoeuvrability is desired even with heavy loads. ![Heavy Duty Swivel Castors](https://www.nuovatecnica.com/images/2023/ruote-alta-portata/girevoli/GXT-80-ASF-MCD-838x800.jpg) ![Heavy Duty Swivel Castors](https://www.nuovatecnica.com/images/2023/ruote-alta-portata/girevoli/UGXT-200-ASF-MCQ-832x800.jpg) ![Heavy Duty Swivel Castors](https://www.nuovatecnica.com/images/2023/ruote-alta-portata/girevoli/UGXT-300-ASF-MCQ-845x800.jpg) ## Heavy Duty Swivel Castors with brake Swivel heavy duty industrial swivel castors are a particularly useful solution in warehouses, lines and other industrial and non-industrial contexts where space is not so large.
