This caster supports that end on a 120mm wheel, and the wheel swivels on its head, so it can follow the arc of the gate rather than fighting it. A coil spring around the rod takes up small differences in ground level. The large model has a maximum weight limit of 200kg. The wheel is 24mm wide, and the open square bracket fixes to the gate upright. The price shown is for one caster. The minimum order is 3.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cfigure style=\"margin:16px 0\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/3002\/8778\/files\/swivel-gate-caster-spring-bracket-120mm-200kg-drawing.jpg?width=1200\" alt=\"Drawing of the large spring loaded swivel gate caster, showing the bracket, wheel and overall height\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:760px;height:auto;margin:0 auto\"\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy a sprung swivel caster works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe swivel follows the swing.\u003c\/strong\u003e A swing gate moves in an arc, and a wheel that can turn stays pointed along that arc as the gate moves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe spring keeps it on the ground.\u003c\/strong\u003e As the gate crosses small rises and dips the spring extends and compresses, so the wheel keeps its contact instead of lifting clear or digging in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA wider, slotted bracket.\u003c\/strong\u003e The 51mm wide bracket carries slotted holes in two rows, which gives you room to adjust the height when you fit it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwing gates at trade premises, business courtyards, garden centres, agricultural merchants and estates.

The 120mm wheel gives the best ride on an uneven surface, the 200kg limit is the highest in the group, and the bracket is a different design: slotted, with a 51mm width and 146mm height, so it needs more room on the gate upright. Measure your gate upright against the bracket width before you order, and choose by the gate's weight and the surface it runs on. A jockey wheel in a fixed fork is the alternative if you want a heavier welded fork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eIf you need\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eChoose\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA 200kg limit with a 120mm wheel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThis caster\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe next size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/swivel-gate-caster-spring-bracket-75mm-100kg\"\u003eSmall swivel caster, 75mm wheel, 100kg\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnother size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/swivel-gate-caster-spring-bracket-100mm-150kg\"\u003eMedium swivel caster, 100mm wheel, 150kg\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA fixed fork jockey wheel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/spring-loaded-gate-jockey-wheel-medium-120kg\"\u003eMedium jockey wheel, 120kg load bearing\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA stop to hold the gate open\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/heavyweight-gravity-gate-stop\"\u003eHeavyweight gravity gate stop\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee the full range of \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/sc-gate-stops-wheels\"\u003egate wheels\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHang and adjust the gate first, then position the bracket on the free end of the gate so the wheel sits on the ground with some of the spring compressed.
