This band lists the 42 Carrymaster casters with wheels from 2 to 3 inches in diameter, the largest wheel-size band and the only one with all three types: 11 leveling casters, 23 non-leveling casters and 8 medical plastic casters.

The same wheel size covers very different ratings here, from 66.14 lbs (ACSU-64) to 2,205 lbs (AC-1300, ALC, ACM-800 and ACMT-800F) per caster. Choose the type and the rating first, using our guide to caster wheel load capacity, then use the table below to confirm the wheel and its replacement part.

People Also Ask: 10 questions about caster wheels from 2 to 3 inches

Q. Which Carrymaster casters have wheels from 2 to 3 inches?

A. 42 casters: the AC-600, AC-1000, AC-1300, ACT-800, APLC-700F, ALC-1000FB and ALCT-1000F leveling casters; the ACSU-64, ACSU-76, ACMU-75, ACMM-75, ACM-600, ACM-800 and ACMT-800F non-leveling casters; and the ACMC-76 and ACMCT-76 medical plastic casters.
It is the largest of the five wheel-size bands.

Q. Is a 76 mm caster wheel a 3 inch wheel?

A. Almost: 76 mm is 2.99 inches, so the ACSU-76, ACMC-76 and ACMCT-76 are listed in the 2 to 3 inch band. The 75 mm wheels on the ACMU-75 and ACMM-75 are 2.95 inches.
If your old wheel measures 3 inches or more across the tread, also check the 3 to 4 inch band.

Q. Which Carrymaster caster has a 2.5 inch wheel?

A. None is exactly 2.5 inches. The closest are the ACSU-64 at 2.52 inches (64 mm) and the AC-600 at 2.44 inches.
They are very different casters: the ACSU-64 is a light-duty non-leveling caster rated 66.14 lbs, the AC-600 a leveling caster rated 1,103 lbs.

Q. Which replacement wheel fits my AC or APLC caster in this band?

A. The AC-600F and AC-600S take the 2.44 inch wheel (WHPA00244, WHMC00244 or WHPU00244). The AC-1000, AC-1300 and APLC-700F take the 2.83 inch wheel (WHPA00283, WHMC00283 or WHPU00283).
Each part comes in PA6, MC nylon or anti-static polyurethane. See Wheels and Parts for the full fit table.

Q. Why do casters with the same wheel size have such different ratings?

A. The series sets the rating, not the wheel alone: in this band the ACSU-64 is rated 66.14 lbs and the AC-1300 2,205 lbs per caster, both with wheels between 2 and 3 inches.
Size by the load per caster first. Our guide to caster wheel load capacity divides the total by 3 and multiplies by a safety factor.

Q. Which medical casters have wheels from 2 to 3 inches?

A. Eight: the ACMC-76 (198.42 lbs, single TPR wheel) and the ACMCT-76 (132.28 lbs, twin PA + PU wheels), each in swivel flange and swivel stem, with and without a brake.
See all medical plastic casters.

Q. Which casters in this band have a brake?

A. Thirteen: the ALC-1000FB, ACM-600FB and ACM-800FB; the ACSU-64 and ACSU-76 in SFB, SSB and SGRB versions; and the ACMC-76 and ACMCT-76 in SFB and SSB versions.
The ALC-1000FB is the only leveling caster in the Carrymaster range with a wheel brake; the other leveling casters are held in place by lowering their feet.

Q. Which casters in this band have a stem mount?

A. Sixteen. The AC-600S has an M12 x 1.75 mm stem; the AC-1000S, AC-1300S and ACT-800S an M16 x 2.00 mm stem; the ACSU-64 and ACSU-76 come with an M12 threaded stem or a grip ring stem; and the ACMC-76 and ACMCT-76 come in stem versions.
Check the stem on the product page drawing against your equipment.

Q. Are there rigid casters with wheels from 2 to 3 inches?

A. Four: the ACSU-64RF, ACSU-76RF, ACMU-75RF and ACMM-75RF, each rated the same as the swivel model of the same size.
For how many rigid and swivel casters to use, read our guide to swivel vs rigid casters.

Q. Which twin-wheel casters have wheels from 2 to 3 inches?

A. The ACT-800F and ACT-800S (882 lbs), the ALCT-1000F (2,205 lbs), the ACMT-800F (2,205 lbs) and the four ACMCT-76 medical casters (132.28 lbs).
The ALCT-1000F is the twin-wheel partner of the braked ALC-1000FB, with the same rating.
