Free guide to specifying industrial castors

Elesa (UK) has published a free White Paper Characteristics of castors for industrial situations, written by Managing Director Nigel Pritchett. This free guide explains the terminology, international standards and performance-related formulae applicable to industrial castors, and is illustrated with clear diagrams.

The White Paper will be of benefit to any designer or specifier who has to select or specify castors for industrial equipment and machinery.

To request a copy of the free White Paper Characteristics of castors for industrial situations, email sales@elesa.co.uk or telephone +44 (0)1526 322670.
