Electrically Conductive Castors

(62 products)

Protect sensitive equipment and control static with Merlin Industrial's range of electrically conductive castors. Designed to provide a low-resistance path to earth, these ESD castors safely dissipate static charge that builds up as trolleys and equipment move – essential in environments where a stray discharge could damage components or create a hazard.

Applications and how ESD castors work

Electrically conductive castors are widely used in electronics assembly and repair, cleanrooms, laboratories, medical facilities, printing and any setting handling static-sensitive devices or flammable atmospheres.

How static is dissipated

The conductive wheel and castor construction channels static through the wheel to the floor, provided the equipment sits on a suitably earthed, conductive surface. Look for the conductive marking, often a green spot or ESD label, that clearly distinguishes these castors from standard, non-conductive wheels and confirms they are the correct part for a static-controlled area.

Choosing the right conductive castor

The range covers swivel, fixed and braked options in a choice of wheel materials and sizes, with plate or bolt-hole fixings to suit your equipment. Selecting the right castor means matching load capacity, wheel type and fixing to your trolley or bench, and ensuring the wider set-up – flooring, mats and earthing – supports proper static dissipation. Our technical team can help you specify a compliant solution and can advise where conductive castors sit alongside our ESD workbenches and equipment.
