Colson offers more than 35,000 different caster models – from tiny chair casters to giant industrial models that carry 4,800 pounds each. With this broad selection the "special" caster you need is probably a standard Colson model.

New Foot Activated Swivel Lock

Because the new swivel lock is operated with foot action, the user is no longer required to bend over and engage a hand operated pull-ring as is found on most models. This ergonomic advantage helps reduce worker back strain, hand soreness and increases worker efficiency. When the foot pedal is in the "up" position, the swivel lock is locked into one of four positions at 90° intervals. When the pedal is pushed down, the lock is disengaged for free swiveling action.
