Caster wheels with brakes
The right caster wheels with brakes for every application
Stop means coming to an immediate and safe halt. There is no margin for error with caster wheels with brakes and castor wheels with parking locks. You have to be able to rely on them, especially in dangerous situations. This calls for both occupational safety and common sense. You yourself know best about the risk of accidents in intralogistics. From electric shocks to bruises, everything is included. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Act (ArbSchG), you are legally obliged to “assess the working conditions from the point of view of occupational safety and to strive for an improvement in health and safety” as put so aptly by the Association of Metal Employers’ Liability Insurance Associations.

Swivel casters with brakes
Swivel casters with brakes block the rolling and swivelling movements of the castors at rest with the aid of brake systems (wheel and swivel head brake). “Front”, “rear”, “fixed” and “central” brake systems are used. “Front” brake systems are located at the front relative to the running direction. “Rear” brake systems are fitted to the rear of the castors. “Fixed” brake systems do not rotate with the swivel head and the pedal always remains in the same position. “Central” brake systems use a single lever to brake two or more castors on a transport equipment. A brake system should be selected after careful consideration of user-friendliness, installation conditions and user-specific accident prevention measures.

Blickle drum and dead man’s brake
(product code suffix: -TB and -TM)
Mostly commonly used brakes in the middle and lower load capacity range, easy and ergonomic operation with low actuation forces.
Robust, adjustable design for medium and high load capacity ranges with particularly high holding forces (frictionlocking).
A fixed locking system (friction- and form-locking) ensures a high level of operating convenience and continuous accessibility.
Simultaneous locking (friction- and form-locking) of two or more castors by means of a lever, comfortable actuation and release forces.
High braking effect thanks to brake shoes, largely protected against corrosion and dirt by the closed design.
Fixed caster with brake
You can choose between two variants of the fixed caster with brake: The Blickle drum brake and Blickle dead man's brake. The drum brake works by pressing two brake shoes integrated into the wheel against the cast wheel centre, which acts as the brake drum. The drum brake provides a high level of braking performance even though only a small amount of force is required to activate it.
