Algood’s High Temp Lava™ series are excellent for temperatures up to 475ºF and 525ºF intermittently. Lava™ wheels will not break down in wet high temperature applications.

The Lava™ is non-marking and has been exclusively developed by Algood with thermoplastic nylon material, which is excellent for high load capacities. The Lava™ wheel is extremely ergonomically efficient, as it requires minimum effort to roll casters with heavy loads. Lava™ wheels resist hard impacts and are resistant to most chemicals, solvents, gases, acids, steam cleaning and do not absorb water! The Lava™ wheel is ideal for industrial and institutional applications. The shore hardness (durometer) of the Lava™ is 85 +/-5 on the D scale.

The ALTurtles™ is a caster that is designed for applications where smooth, uninterrupted, free flow swiveling of a caster is required. ALTurtles™ is designed with three swivel casters mounted to a triangular top plate. The weight capacity and the overall height vary according to which casters and wheels are mounted to the triangular top plate. The principle of the ALTurtles™ can be applied to any series, but recently we have designed it for our 800, 1900, 5000 and Tornado series, ranging for capacities of 75 lbs. to 1,000 lbs. This caster design is excellent for studio, theatre and stage equipment manufacturing.
