Heavy Load & Machine Moving Equipment  -  Using Regular Shop Air

Square aluminum air caster modules are strong and robust structures capable of supporting the proportionate weight of loads weighing many tons. As machine moving equipment, they have a profile height of just over 2 inches. They can slide under loads and machines with suitable clearance heights, often making them an ideal solution as machine moving equipment. They are also the most suitable module for when a load can be placed directly onto the modules. Ask your Hovair Systems support contact for details.

The low profile of this module requires just over a 2" height clearance. Ordinary 90-110 psi air is required to inflate it.
