Rigid caster has a rigid horn and wheel assembly permit

7、ting only straight line travel. 2.1.2 Swivel caster. Swivel caster has a swivel horn and wheel assembly that will rotate through 360. 2.2 Mounting plate and horn assembly. The mounting plate and horn assembly shall be made of steel plate, cast or forged steel, or aluminum. The horn legs shall be eit

8、her an integral part of the horn plate or welded thereto. The area adjacent to mounting holes shall have sufficient clearance to allow mounting hardware installation to provide for clearance for all intended operations. 2.2.1 Finish. Except for aluminum, exposed metal surfaces of the caster assembli

9、es shall be zinc plated per ASTM B633, Type II or III, SC2 2.2.2 Kingpin. The kingpin for swivel casters shall be constructed of steel with minimum .625 inch diameter. The kingpin shall be secured with rivet, or nut and bolt designed that will maintain the proper relationship of swivel bearing compo

10、nents for the life of the caster under normal operating conditions. 2.2.3 Swivel assembly. The ball bearing assembly shall be bi-level with a smooth non-binding operation. The raceways shall be smooth and full-case hardened and shall be filled to capacity with commercial quality steel ball bearings.

11、 2.2.4 Axle. The axle shall be constructed of steel and shall secure the wheel by means of a locknut or slotted nut and pins. During operation, the axle shall not rotate loose or bind the wheel. 2.2.5 Wheel bearing. The wheel bearing shall be commercial type ball or roller bearings designed and manu

12、factured in accordance with the best standard manufacturing practice for the intended purpose. 2.2.6 Wheel hardness. Except for metal and phenolic wheels, the hardness of treads shall be 70 5 points for rubber and 92 5 points for polyurethane, as measured on the face of the treads by a type A shore

13、durometer. Electrically conductive treads shall have a hardness of 80 5 points. 2.2.7 Metal wheel. Metal wheel shall be fine grain cast iron, steel or aluminum alloy. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-A-A-55617C 3 2.2.8 Swivel lock. Whe

14、n specified, a four position plunger type swivel lock with a ring for operation shall be furnished. When engaged, the ring shall be in the vertical position and the swivel lock shall prevent the caster from swiveling while rolling or shall prevent rolling while at right angles to the normal path of

15、the equipment. When disengaged, the ring shall be in the horizontal position and the swivel lock shall permit full 360 free swiveling. 2.2.9 Brake. When specified, a manually operated with side or front mounted control lever parking brake shall be provided. The brake shall be tread contact type, usi

16、ng a combination of pressure and friction to prevent wheel rotation. The control lever shall be readily accessible for operation, permitting quick and easy brake application and release. The control lever shall be capable of ensuring brake contact surface has a clearance of at least .062 inch off th

17、e wheel tread surface. 2.2.10 Lubrication fitting. The swivel assembly and wheel assembly shall have pressure lubrication fittings and shall be prelubricated with water repellent grease having a -32C to +71C (-10F to +160F) operating temperature range. 2.2.11 Electrical Conductivity. The electrical

18、conductive wheels shall be of such composition that the average electrical resistance shall be less than 250,000 ohms, and the maximum individual electrical resistance reading shall be less than 1,000,000 ohms when tested as described in 2.3.4. 2.3 Casters furnished shall be able to withstand the fo

19、llowing tests: 2.3.1 Static load test. The caster shall be able to withstand four (4) times its rated capacity for one (1) minute minimum without damage. 2.3.2 Endurance test. The casters shall be loaded to rated capacity and shall be run continuously (see 6.3) at three (3) mph minimum on an endless

20、 belt or drum type testing machine with a smooth, uninterrupted running surface for a minimum period of forty (40) hours. At the completion of the test, there shall be no indication of excess wear on the bearing races, looseness of bearings, scuffing of tires, or looseness of tire tread. 2.3.3 Brake

21、 Test. For caster furnished with a brake, the brake must prevent wheel rotation from a horizontal pulling force equal to 103 percent (%) of the force required to initiate movement of the equipment under rated load with brake disengaged. The test shall be conducted on a level concrete floor by applyi

22、ng a horizontal pulling force on a rated load evenly distributed over four (4) casters, two of which will have the brakes engaged. The test should be repeated a minimum of four (4 ) times. 2.3.4 Electrical Conductivity Test. For caster furnished with electrical conductive tread, the wheel shall be t

23、ested while supporting a load equal to 25 percent (%) of its rated load. The caster to be tested shall be rolled onto a clean, dry, flat metal plate. The metal plate and the metal parts of the caster shall form the electrodes for the test. If the caster is tested while supporting equipment, all othe

24、r casters under the equipment shall be insulated from the floor on which the metal electrode plate is placed. The resistance between the electrodes shall be measured by any resistance measuring apparatus of suitable range, which has an open circuit direct voltage (D.C.) of approximately 500 volts. F

25、or the safety of the operator, the maximum current, which can be delivered by the apparatus through a resistance of 500 ohms, should be less than 10 milliamperes. Measurements shall be made with 5 separate areas of the tire successively in contact with the plate, and the average and the maximum valu

26、es shall be determined. 3. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS. 3.1 The offerer/contractor is encouraged to use recovered materials to the maximum extent practicable, in accordance with paragraph 23.403 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). 4. PRODUCT CONFORMANCE PROVISIONS. 4.1 Product conformance. The
