Series 6 Castors, Feet and Base Plates

Series 6 Aluminium Profile Castors, Feet and Base Plates

Series 6 Aluminium Profile Castors, Feet and Base Plates are engineered to deliver smooth movement, secure positioning, and dependable support for aluminium extrusion frameworks. Whether you are building lightweight workstations, mobile frames, guarding systems, or industrial structures, this range offers a practical and cost-effective way to enhance both functionality and usability.

Designed specifically for Series 6 aluminium profiles, these components integrate seamlessly with T-slot systems, making installation straightforward and eliminating the need for complex fabrication. From compact mobile frames to larger industrial assemblies, Series 6 castors and base solutions are ideal for modular, adaptable designs.

Designed for Series 6 Aluminium Profile Systems

All Series 6 castors, feet, and base plates are manufactured to match the dimensions and load requirements of Series 6 aluminium extrusion profiles. This ensures optimal performance, correct load distribution, and long-term durability.

By fitting directly into the profile slots or via compatible pad plates, these accessories maintain the clean, modular design that aluminium profile systems are known for. This makes them perfect for applications where flexibility, repeatability, and future reconfiguration are essential.

Castors for Smooth and Controlled Movement

The Series 6 aluminium profile castor range includes four main configurations, allowing you to select the most suitable option for your framework size and intended use.

Mini Roller Castors for Lightweight Frames

Mini roller castors are ideal for light aluminium frames that need to move in a straight line. These are commonly used for simple handling systems, sliding frames, or lightweight equipment stands. Their compact size makes them discreet while still providing reliable movement on flat surfaces.

Ideal for:

• Lightweight aluminium frameworks
• Linear movement applications
• Compact modular systems

Fixed Castors for Stability and Directional Control

Fixed castors allow your aluminium profile framework to move in a controlled, straight direction. These are particularly useful where predictable movement is required, such as along workshop floors or production lines.

Fixed castors offer excellent load-bearing capability and are commonly paired with swivel castors to balance manoeuvrability and control.

Swivel Castors for Maximum Manoeuvrability

Swivel castors enable full 360-degree rotation, making them perfect for mobile aluminium frames that need to navigate tight spaces. When combined with fixed castors, they allow easy positioning without sacrificing stability.

Many swivel castors in the Series 6 range also include a braking mechanism, giving you the option to lock the frame securely once it is in position.

Braked Castors for Secure Positioning

Lockable castors are essential for workstations, inspection frames, and mobile equipment where safety and stability are critical. The integrated brake prevents unwanted movement, ensuring the aluminium framework remains firmly in place during use.

Feet and Levelling Solutions for Stability

Not all aluminium frameworks require movement. For static installations, Series 6 feet and levelling pads provide excellent stability and height adjustment.

Levelling feet are particularly useful on uneven floors, allowing precise adjustment to ensure the frame sits square and level. This is essential for machinery supports, workbenches, and guarding systems where accuracy and safety are important.

These feet are fully compatible with Series 6 aluminium profiles and can be fitted using the same pad plates used for castors, providing flexibility to convert a static frame into a mobile one later if required.

Common applications include:

• Fixed workstations
• Machine frames
• Assembly benches
• Industrial guarding

Base Plates and Pad Plates for Larger Frameworks

For larger Series 6 aluminium profiles and heavier frameworks, pad plates are required to distribute loads effectively. These base plates provide a strong mounting surface for both castors and levelling feet, improving structural integrity and extending the lifespan of your framework.

Pad plates are especially important when higher loads or frequent movement are involved. By spreading forces across a wider area, they reduce stress on the aluminium profile and ensure safe, reliable operation.

Easy Installation and Modular Flexibility

One of the key advantages of Series 6 aluminium profile castors, feet, and base plates is ease of installation. All components are designed to work with standard T-slot fixings, allowing quick assembly and adjustment without specialist tools.

This modular approach means you can easily modify your framework as requirements change—adding castors for mobility, swapping to levelling feet for stability, or upgrading to pad plates for increased load capacity.

Applications Across Multiple Industries

Series 6 aluminium profile castors, feet, and base plates are widely used across a range of industries, including:

• Manufacturing and production environments
• Automation and robotics frames
• Workstations and assembly lines
• Display systems and exhibition frames
• Industrial enclosures and guarding

Their durability, flexibility, and compatibility with modular aluminium systems make them a popular choice for both industrial and commercial projects.
