PEMCO

PEMCO is a manufacturer of casters and wheels used in material handling equipment across industrial, commercial, and institutional settings. The product line includes plate casters, stem casters, and related wheel assemblies in light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty configurations. Common wheel materials include polyolefin, rubber, and polyurethane, with bearing options such as Delrin and ball bearings. Mounting styles include slotted rectangular plates and stem mounts, and brake options range from no brake to side brake and total lock. Wheel diameters in the supplied range span 3 inches to 8 inches, with tread widths from 1-1/4 inches to 2 inches and mounting heights from 5-5/8 inches to 9-1/2 inches. These casters are typically specified for carts, dollies, racks, shelving, and light-to-medium industrial equipment where maneuverability, load support, and secure positioning are required. 3G Electric supplies PEMCO casters and wheels as part of its industrial equipment catalog. The line includes 19 SKUs at present, covering swivel and rigid configurations, multiple wheel materials, and brake types. Technical buyers can reference manufacturer part numbers, wheel dimensions, bearing type, and mounting height when selecting replacements or specifying new equipment. 3G Electric provides logistics support for orders and can assist with part number cross-referencing and availability checks. The catalog is structured to let maintenance and procurement teams identify compatible casters by matching mounting plate dimensions, wheel diameter, tread width, and load requirements. For operations that need to standardize caster specifications across a fleet of carts or racks, the PEMCO range offers consistent mounting interfaces and material options within each duty class. This helps reduce the number of unique spare parts kept on hand. When evaluating casters for a specific application, consider the floor surface, operating environment, and load per caster. Polyolefin wheels are commonly used in dry, relatively clean environments where resistance to oils and chemicals is useful. Rubber treads provide quiet operation and floor protection, making them suitable for institutional or light-duty carts. Polyurethane wheels offer higher load capacity and resistance to abrasion, often chosen for medium-duty industrial carts and racks. Bearing type affects rolling effort and maintenance: Delrin bearings are typical in light-duty applications, while ball bearings support smoother rolling under heavier loads. Brake selection depends on whether the equipment must remain stationary during use or loading. Side brakes lock the wheel, while total-lock brakes secure both the swivel and wheel for complete immobilization. Mounting height and plate dimensions must match the equipment's existing caster pads or design specifications to ensure proper fit and load distribution. 3G Electric's catalog lists each PEMCO caster with its key attributes, including caster type, wheel material, wheel diameter, wheel width, bearing type, mounting style, and brake configuration. This allows buyers to filter by the parameters that matter for their application. For replacement scenarios, matching the manufacturer part number is the most direct approach. When part numbers are not available, the dimensional and material specifications can be used to identify a compatible unit. 3G Electric ships globally and supports industrial buyers with order processing and logistics coordination. The PEMCO line is part of a broader offering that includes burners, pumps, gas controls, and other industrial equipment, allowing procurement teams to consolidate suppliers for multiple maintenance and operations categories.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about PEMCO from 3G Electric.

What wheel materials are available in the PEMCO caster line?

PEMCO casters supplied by 3G Electric include polyolefin, rubber, and polyurethane wheels. Polyolefin is a hard, durable material often used in light-duty applications such as carts and racks. Rubber treads are used where quiet operation and floor protection are needed, typically in light-duty swivel and rigid casters. Polyurethane wheels are common in medium-duty and heavy-duty casters, offering higher load capacity and resistance to abrasion. The specific material for each SKU is listed in the product specifications, along with wheel diameter, tread width, and bearing type.

How do I choose between a rigid and a swivel PEMCO caster?

Rigid casters are fixed in direction and are typically used in pairs with swivel casters to provide steering control while maintaining straight-line tracking. Swivel casters allow the equipment to turn and maneuver in tight spaces. In the PEMCO line, both rigid and swivel configurations are available across light-duty and medium-duty plate casters. For equipment that requires precise steering, a combination of two rigid and two swivel casters is common. If full maneuverability is needed, all four casters may be swivel type. Brake options such as side brake or total lock can be specified on swivel models to secure the equipment when stationary.

What is the difference between a side brake and a total lock on PEMCO casters?

A side brake locks the wheel to prevent rolling, but the swivel may still rotate. A total lock brake immobilizes both the wheel and the swivel, holding the equipment in a fixed position. PEMCO casters in the supplied range include side brake and total lock options. Total lock is often used on equipment that must remain stationary during loading or use, such as carts or workstations. Side brake is suitable when only rolling motion needs to be stopped. The brake type is indicated in the product specifications for each SKU.

What mounting styles are available for PEMCO plate casters?

PEMCO plate casters in the 3G Electric catalog use slotted rectangular mounting plates. This mounting style allows for some adjustment during installation and is common in light-duty and medium-duty applications. The mounting height, which is the distance from the floor to the top of the mounting plate, varies by wheel diameter and caster design. For example, medium-duty casters with 5-inch wheels have a mounting height of 6-1/2 inches, while those with 8-inch wheels have a mounting height of 9-1/2 inches. Matching the mounting height and plate dimensions to the equipment is necessary for proper fit and load distribution.

What are the load capacities of PEMCO casters?

Load capacity varies by caster series, wheel material, wheel diameter, and bearing type. The PEMCO casters supplied by 3G Electric are categorized as light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty. Light-duty casters typically use polyolefin or rubber wheels with Delrin or ball bearings and are intended for carts, dollies, and light equipment. Medium-duty casters often use polyurethane wheels with ball bearings and are used on industrial carts, racks, and equipment. Heavy-duty casters are designed for higher loads. For specific load ratings, refer to the manufacturer's data for each part number. 3G Electric can assist with identifying the appropriate caster based on the application's load requirements.

Can 3G Electric help identify a replacement PEMCO caster if I don't have the part number?

Yes. If the manufacturer part number is not available, 3G Electric can help identify a compatible PEMCO caster using the existing caster's dimensions and features. Key information to provide includes wheel diameter, tread width, mounting height, mounting plate dimensions, caster type (swivel or rigid), wheel material, bearing type, and brake type. The catalog lists these attributes for each SKU, allowing cross-referencing. For best results, provide photos or measurements of the current caster. 3G Electric supports global shipping and can coordinate logistics for replacement orders.
