Yes. Humphries Casters stocks stainless steel casters with optional stainless steel bearings specifically designed for corrosive, wet, or washdown environments. These are suitable for meat packaging plants, food processing facilities, pharmaceutical labs, dietary carts, and medical environments near MRI equipment. Multiple brake options including total lock and side pedal are available.

For floor protection, thermoplastic rubber (TPR) and polyurethane wheels are the top choices. TPR wheels are non-marking, chemically resistant, and operate quietly — ideal for medical carts and indoor facilities. Polyurethane wheels offer higher load capacity and resist oils and chemicals, making them well-suited for industrial carts, hospital beds, and material handling equipment requiring both floor protection and durability.

Yes. Humphries Casters stocks a comprehensive range of hospital bed casters compatible with Hill-Rom, Stryker, Joerns, Invacare, Hausted, Midmark, and Baxter/Hillrom equipment lines including Century Series, Advance Series, VersaCare, Centrella Smart+, TranStar Series Stretchers, and Affinity Birthing Beds. Both OEM and equivalent replacement parts are available.

Brake-only casters stop the wheel from rolling but allow swivel movement. Brake/steer casters combine braking with directional steering for controlled navigation. Total lock casters immobilize both the wheel and the swivel mechanism entirely, preventing any movement — critical for patient safety on hospital beds and stretchers. Selecting the right type depends on the equipment and patient safety requirements of your facility.
