Medical Casters for Healthcare Facilities

Atlanta Caster supplies high-performance medical casters designed to meet the strict demands of the healthcare industry. From hospitals and clinics to surgical centers and long-term care facilities, mobility is a critical part of daily operations. The right caster ensures that equipment moves safely, quietly, and reliably, without damaging flooring or compromising hygiene standards.

We offer a comprehensive selection of medical equipment casters built for durability, cleanliness, and ease of use. With a range of mounting options, wheel types, and materials, our casters support everything from lightweight carts to heavy surgical equipment.

Meeting the Demands of Healthcare Mobility

Healthcare environments present unique challenges when it comes to mobility. Equipment must be moved smoothly and quietly across hallways, patient rooms, and surgical suites. At the same time, surfaces need to remain clean, undamaged, and free of debris.

Atlanta Caster delivers dependable solutions for these requirements. We offer non marking caster wheels, quiet casters, and corrosion resistant casters that perform reliably in high-traffic, sanitized environments.

All caster components are carefully selected to support hospital-grade performance standards, including load capacity, noise control, and resistance to cleaning agents.

Medical Casters Built for Daily Use

Whether it's for IV poles, transport carts, or operating tables, medical casters play a vital role in patient care. Each product is engineered to meet the functional needs of medical staff, while ensuring safety and reliability for patients and equipment.

Our casters come in various designs to suit different load capacities, surface types, and movement needs. Common options include:

• Rigid casters for straight-line travel
• Swivel casters for easy turning and maneuverability
• Single casters for compact equipment

Mounting options include top plate, threaded, and expanding applicator to fit a variety of frame designs. These mounts ensure secure attachment to medical devices and equipment stands.

Medical Equipment Casters

We supply medical equipment casters for a wide range of applications. From diagnostic machines to exam tables, our casters are built for strength and stability.

For heavy-duty machines, we offer high load capacity casters designed to carry substantial weight without compromising mobility. These casters are ideal for CT scanners, mobile imaging units, and patient lifts.

Our wheel type options include cast iron, forged steel, and forged steel Hd to handle high stress and maintain performance over time. Fork materials such as stainless steel and zinc plated are available for maximum hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Hospital Bed Casters and Wheels

Mobility for hospital beds is essential in both emergency and routine care settings. Our hospital bed casters and hospital bed wheels are engineered for smooth operation, reliable locking, and minimal floor impact.

These casters are designed to roll quietly, reducing noise in patient areas. Many options include total-lock and directional-lock features to secure beds during transfer and use.

Quiet casters and non marking caster wheels are standard in this category to support safety and cleanliness in patient care areas. Our fork type options in stainless steel provide long-term resistance to rust, even under frequent cleaning.

Surgical Table Casters

Mobility in operating rooms must be precise, controlled, and stable. Our surgical table casters are built to provide smooth, quiet rolling combined with secure locking. These casters handle heavy loads and frequent repositioning while supporting strict hygiene protocols.

To maintain stability, we offer rigid, swivel, and single casters with locking mechanisms that prevent unwanted movement. High load capacity casters are ideal for heavy surgical tables and operating platforms.

All casters used in surgical environments include corrosion resistant components such as zinc plated or stainless steel forks, and mount options for a secure fit under surgical equipment.

Cart Casters for Healthcare Facilities

Medical carts are used throughout healthcare facilities for supplies, medication, diagnostics, and patient care. Cart casters must roll easily on smooth and uneven flooring, navigate tight corners, and support moderate loads.

We supply casters that ensure quiet performance with minimal resistance, reducing operator strain and noise in sensitive areas. Many options feature non marking wheels to protect floor surfaces from scuffs and wear.

Common cart caster options include:

• Swivel design for easy steering
• Threaded or top plate mount for secure installation
• Stainless steel fork for rust resistance in sterile areas

Corrosion Resistant Casters

Frequent cleaning and exposure to disinfectants require materials that resist damage. Our corrosion resistant casters are built with medical-grade components that stand up to harsh cleaning agents and moisture.

We recommend stainless steel forks for environments where hygiene and durability are critical. These forks resist rust and extend the lifespan of the caster, even under repeated washdowns and chemical exposure.

Types of Casters for Healthcare

There are several types of casters used in healthcare settings, each suited to specific applications:

• Rigid casters for straight paths and fixed direction
• Swivel casters for maneuverability in tight areas
• Single casters for compact and lightweight applications
• Locking casters for added safety during use
• High capacity casters for large medical machines or surgical tables

Choosing the right caster depends on the equipment type, load weight, frequency of movement, and environmental conditions.

Wheel and Mounting Options

Selecting the appropriate wheel type is important for performance and longevity. Our options include:

• Cast iron for solid strength under heavy loads
• Forged steel for impact resistance and durability
• Forged steel Hd for extreme weight and rough use

Mounting options include:

• Top plate for stable installation on flat surfaces
• Threaded for easy adjustments or replacements
• Expanding applicator for tubular legs or frames

These combinations allow for secure, long-lasting caster installations across a wide variety of medical equipment.
