FIXED SIDE-MOUNTED SHIPPING CONTAINER CASTER WHEEL
Engineered for Strength, Stability, and Long-Term Performance
The Fixed Side-Mounted Caster Wheel from Quickfit Container Accessories delivers exceptional strength, control, and reliability when moving loaded shipping containers.
Built for heavy-duty industrial use, these wheels are the ideal rear support option for 20ft and 40ft containers, offering smooth movement and safe towing across demanding environments.
Each caster wheel is precision-engineered from reinforced steel and hot-dip galvanised for maximum corrosion resistance. With an impressive 1,800 kg load capacity per wheel, they’re designed to withstand continuous use under heavy loads — ensuring stable, controlled movement across yards, workshops, and construction sites.
When paired with front swivel wheels and a Quickfit Tow Bar, these rear-mounted casters form a complete mobility system, making it easy to reposition containers safely and efficiently, even when fully loaded.
Fixed Design for Enhanced Control
Unlike swivel wheels, which rotate freely for steering, the fixed design of these caster wheels provides straight-line tracking and directional stability during towing.
They fit securely into the side of the container corner casting, locking firmly in place without the need for welding or modification.
This setup prevents side-to-side movement, ensuring the container follows smoothly and safely behind towing equipment. Whether on concrete, tarmac, gravel, or compacted ground, these wheels offer predictable handling, excellent balance, and reduced risk of shifting during transport.
Built for Industrial and Commercial Applications
Every Quickfit caster wheel is built to handle the demands of daily use in ports, depots, and logistics yards.
The solid steel frame and reinforced mounting bracket resist wear and bending, while the heavy-duty wheel construction ensures consistent performance and easy rolling under full load.
Perfect for container repositioning, conversions, or mobile site setups, these caster wheels provide a dependable solution where strength, safety, and stability are essential.
