Why choose Colson Group for aerospace casters?

With decades of experience engineering mobility solutions for demanding industries, Colson Group delivers caster and wheel solutions designed to meet the rigorous performance requirements of aerospace manufacturing, maintenance, and ground support operations. Our extensive product portfolio includes options for heavy loads, continuous use, ergonomic movement, and specialized environmental conditions. Backed by global engineering expertise, application support, and proven quality, we help aerospace manufacturers and operators improve safety, efficiency, and reliability throughout their operations.

What load capacities can aerospace casters handle?

Proper caster load capacity depends on the equipment and product. To determine load capacity take the total loaded equipment weight and divide it by the desired number of casters on the equipment. Then add a safety margin of about 25-30% to account for uneven and dynamic loads during movement.

Why are aerospace applications different from standard industrial caster applications?

Cleaner work area Specialized, high capacity transport equipment for very high value components. Strict safety and quality standards with tighter tolerances for the casters and wheels. Option FOD sweep and toe guards are critical for safety and longevity.
