Steel takes more abuse and higher loads but can rust where the coating is chipped. Aluminum splits the difference at higher cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need locking casters?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes for any cart loaded while parked, used on a slope, or working near a walkway. An unbraked loaded cart on a slight incline is a real struck-by hazard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is an ergonomic reason to use a cart?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt converts carrying into pushing. Push and pull forces are generally far easier on the back than carrying the same load, provided the cart rolls freely and the handle is at a workable height.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy do my cart wheels stick?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsually debris wound into the swivel or axle, or a caster rated for lighter duty than the load it is carrying. Both get worse over time and both make the cart harder and less safe to steer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere do the specifications on this page come from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are taken from the manufacturer's published listing.
