Aviation Ground Equipment Casters
298 Series Capacity to 20000
Designed to meet the varied needs
of the aviation ground support
equipment industry, the 298 series
sets the standards. Constructed with
an oscillating, compensating wheel
axle and cushion suspension leveling,
these casters can stand up to
even the most rigorous conditions.
All optional features can be installed
at the factory without an increase to
order lead time. A spring assembly
can be retrofitted at a later date by
returning the caster to Albion. The
swivel lock and face contact brake
are field installable.
