Sugatsune America Swivel Caster With 3-15/16" Polyamide / Polyurethane Wheel No Brake, Threaded Stem Mount 220lb Capacity - EX-100N16

Sugatsune Swivel Caster For Smooth Cabinet Mobility

Sugatsune swivel caster is a stem mounted caster designed to add controlled mobility to cabinets and similar projects. The threaded stem mount configuration sets this caster up for installations where a bolt-style connection is preferred for secure engagement into a prepared mounting point. The wheel diameter of 3-15/16 inches allows the caster to roll over typical shop and jobsite surfaces while keeping overall cabinet height in a predictable range for layout and alignment. The wheel material combination of polyamide and polyurethane provides a hard-wearing rolling surface while staying relatively quiet in use compared to bare metal wheels. Ball bearing equipped swivel and wheel construction supports smooth movement under load, which helps when maneuvering heavier cabinets into precise positions. A load capacity of 220 lb per caster defines the working range for planning total supported weight and spacing casters under a cabinet or fixture.

Key Caster Details That Support Daily Use

• The threaded stem mount threaded stem mount layout gives a defined mounting interface into a compatible threaded or tapped receiver, supporting repeatable positioning on multiple cabinets.
• The wheel diameter of 3-15/16 inches sets a consistent ride height, which helps when aligning cabinet bases or shop fixtures to counters, machines, or adjacent runs.
• The polyamide and polyurethane wheel material pairing creates a durable rolling surface while supporting controlled movement across typical hard flooring in workshop or commercial environments.
• The 220 lb load capacity per caster provides a clear planning figure when distributing cabinet or fixture weight across multiple casters in a layout.
• The ball bearing equipped swivel and wheel construction allows the caster to start rolling with less effort, which is useful when positioning loaded cabinets where precise placement is required.

Threaded Stem Mount Caster Installation Details

The threaded stem mount design identifies this caster as part of the threaded stem mount product class, making it suitable where a threaded connection into a mating component is required. This configuration allows installers to engage the stem into a prepared threaded insert or nut, setting the caster directly under a cabinet corner or support frame. The stem mounted layout helps standardize installation across multiple units because each caster engages using the same stem interface. With the swivel type designation, the caster allows the wheel and upper body to rotate relative to the cabinet, supporting tight turning when moving pieces in confined spaces. The stem mounting style also keeps the mounting footprint compact under the cabinet, which can help in layouts with limited base area.

Using This Caster In Cabinet And Fixture Projects

Where This Threaded Stem Caster Fits Best

This caster sits in the builders hardware and stem mounted casters category, aligning it with cabinetry, woodworking, and similar shop fixture applications. The swivel type layout suits cabinets and fixtures that need to change direction in tight aisles or work cells without lifting. The polyamide and polyurethane wheel construction works well for projects where a consistent rolling surface is valuable, such as mobile storage cabinets or rolling workstations on hard floors. The 3-15/16 inch wheel diameter keeps cabinets at a moderate working height, which is helpful when coordinating with countertops or machinery stands. The 220 lb capacity per caster lets installers design multi-caster bases that support substantial loads while keeping movement manageable. The rear bumper described in the product data shields the caster side from impacts at the back, helping protect the cabinet and wheel during contact with walls or equipment.

Details That Support Accurate Movement And Protection

Ball bearing equipped swivel and wheel components provide smooth movement under load, helping cabinets track predictably when pushed or pulled into position. This smooth action reduces the force needed to start rolling, which aids in fine adjustments near finished walls or built-ins. The web description references a large brake lever and indicator for easy operation, describing how the locking function can be quickly identified and engaged when positioning a cabinet. The description also states that the caster locks both wheel and swivel, which stabilizes the cabinet by restricting rolling and rotation when the brake is applied. The rear bumper protects from impacts by absorbing contact at the back of the caster, which can reduce marking or damage on cabinet corners during routine movement. The same description notes that the no-brake type has a front rubber bumper to protect feet, identifying a configuration focused on impact and foot protection in front-facing positions.
