Ime suppprised about this mine is around 6 years old and fine it’s noisy but still fully working. Just give them a spray before and after use with WD40 or similar it might helpOk, Whirlaway castors are failing pretty quick on pretty new FSC, one is notchy and grinding, won’t swivel, seems grit has reached the bearings, any ideas on a better quality replacement for all four castors please?
Yea I have sprayed with WD it loosens it up to a degree but after using it again it’s gone tight again. I did read somewhere that the castors on these weren’t much good.Ime suppprised about this mine is around 6 years old and fine it’s noisy but still fully working.

Don't use WD40 as it has solvent in which will evaporate and wash out any lubricant there is! Maybe use some spray grease.Yea I have sprayed with WD it loosens it up to a degree but after using it again it’s gone tight again. I did read somewhere that the castors on these weren’t much good.
Yes they are a bit cheap and nasty and noisy but work okYea I have sprayed with WD it loosens it up to a degree but after using it again it’s gone tight again. I did read somewhere that the castors on these weren’t much good.
There isn’t any grease in the bearings they are designed to be free from lubricants as it gets all the dirt in the bearing’s when using it it’s made to be washed our with water we just spray with WD40 before and after use to help keep it free runningDon't use WD40 as it has solvent in which will evaporate and wash out any lubricant there is!

Yea didn’t think about that, I’ll get some spray grease & keep them greased up. Only seems one of the four is playing upDon't use WD40 as it has solvent in which will evaporate and wash out any lubricant there is! Maybe use some spray grease.
Cheers for the info, I thought they where 'normal' casters with ball bearings.There isn’t any grease in the bearings they are designed to be free from lubricants as it gets all the dirt in the bearing’s when using it it’s made to be washed our with water we just spray with WD40 before and after use to help keep it free running

Yes they are but if you grease them it holds all the grit in the bearing and makes it much worse and it all seizes up , if you just leave them the grit just washes outCheers for the info, I thought they where 'normal' casters with ball bearings.
