Inspiration can come from anywhere...
Rotacaster Wheel Limited is a young, Australian company with a focus on innovative product design. We’ve taken an age old concept and put a new twist on it, developing a true alternative to the swivel caster.
The original concept for the Rotacaster multi-directional wheel was developed by founder, Henry Guile, whose inspiration came from the Bible.
The first chapter of Ezekiel describes a vehicle with four wheels and “their appearance and their work was as if it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.” From this simple idea, the Ezekiel Wheel was born.

Henry worked on his wheel for many years, but his dream was never fully realized. Many years later, Henry’s son, Graham, revisted his father’s early work, re-engineering the wheel into the Rotacaster wheel of today - a sturdy, robust wheel, adaptable to a vast array of applications and the solution to the many short falls of the traditional swivel caster.

Rota-Dollie
Construction
Lightweight welded aluminum frame with fixed multi-directional Rotacaster wheels. No swivel mechanisms or bolts (other than axles).
Applications
The durable aluminum frame and patented corrosion resistant Rotacaster wheels make the Rota-dollie ideal for use in a vast array of environments, from food service areas, freezers or cool rooms to offices, retail and medical, as well as warehouses and construction sites.
| Benefits |
| • |
Multi-directional movement and rotation |
| • |
Less torsional force required to turn a load leading to reduced risk of damage and strain injuries |
| • |
Increased load stability due to fixed-load base - Rotacaster wheels create a static relationship between the center of the load, its orientation, and the wheelbase |
| • |
Tracking and directional control, even across trafficable inclines - no “crabbing” |
| • |
Fully corrosion-resistant - all-polymer wheel, welded aluminum frame |
