PosiLoc® Brake
Durable, Toe-Activated Braking The PosiLoc® Brake offers strong, toe-activated wheel locking for a wide range of wheel types and tread surfaces. Made from stainless steel with a thermoplastic pedal, it ensures easy operation and long-lasting performance. Locks the wheel only.

VertiLoc® Brake
Reliable Side-Action Wheel Brake The VertiLoc® Brake uses a cam-action mechanism to apply pressure across the full wheel tread. It locks the wheel without affecting swivel motion. All-steel construction delivers consistent, dependable braking in demanding environments.

Swivel Lock
Secure Directional Control Add a Swivel Lock for precise control. This factory-installed, hand-operated plunger locks the swivel at 180° in the trailing position while allowing the wheel to roll freely. The spring-loaded mechanism includes a secure clip for reliable engagement.

Swivel Grease Seals
Protect and Extend Caster Life with Swivel Grease Seals which keep dirt and moisture out while retaining lubrication in the swivel raceway. This ensures smoother swivel action and extends caster lifespan. Recommended for environments with frequent washdowns or sterilization—ideal for hospitals, food processing plants, and bakeries.
Thread Guards
Protect Bearings and Reduce Maintenance Thread Guards prevent debris buildup that can damage wheel bearings and cause flat spots. They extend caster life and reduce maintenance needs. Available on many Jarvis models—contact us for details.
Sealed Precision Ball Bearings
Smooth, Low-Maintenance Performance Sealed Precision Ball Bearings are available on most wheel models. They offer smoother rolling and reduced maintenance thanks to their sealed design that keeps out contaminants.

Advantage Thermoplastic Rubber
Advantage wheels boast a unique combination of a specially formulated modulus thermoplastic rubber (TPR) tread, permanently bonded to a robust polyolefin wheel core. This innovative design ensures a non-marking, floor-friendly performance that minimizes unsightly scuffing and marking. The resilient tread material effectively rejects floor debris, making it an excellent choice for use in wet or damp locations.
The round tread design provides a visually appealing, crowned wheel that excels in terms of rolling and maneuverability, making it an ideal solution for a wide range of applications in the food service, healthcare, and institutional sectors.
Alternatively, the flat tread option offers enhanced load capacity while maintaining the non-marking and easy-rolling benefits, making it a suitable choice for institutional settings, warehouses, industrial environments, and areas with high humidity or moisture. With Advantage wheels, you can trust in a reliable, high-performance solution that meets the demands of your specific needs.

Advantage Heat
Advantage Heat wheels build upon the trusted performance of our standard Advantage wheels, but with a game-changing twist. Our unique, soft tread material (80 ± 5 Shore A scale) is specifically designed to withstand the intense heat of autoclave applications, ensuring reliable performance in even the most demanding environments.
What sets Advantage Heat wheels apart is their exceptional quiet operation and smooth ride, making them a welcome addition to hospitals, laboratories, and cleanrooms. The corrosion-resistant thermoplastic tread is also ideal for wash-down and steam-clean applications, withstanding the rigors of frequent cleaning and disinfection.
But what really sets Advantage Heat wheels apart is their ability to withstand extreme temperatures up to 300°F (150°C) under controlled circumstances. This makes them an ideal choice for applications where high-temperature resistance is critical, such as in medical device manufacturing, pharmaceutical processing, and other industries where precision and reliability are paramount.

Advantage Health
Boost your facility’s cleanliness and hygiene with the Advantage Health wheel, a cutting-edge anti-microbial solution designed to inhibit the growth of microorganisms, including bacteria, mold, and fungi. The wheel’s additive is rigorously tested and certified by leading regulatory bodies, including the FDA, EPA, and NSF, making it a trusted choice for the medical and food service industries. Recommended for use in high-traffic areas such as hospitals, laboratories, food service facilities, and cleanrooms, the Advantage Health wheel provides an effective and long-lasting way to maintain a clean and healthy environment. By incorporating this wheel into your daily cleaning routine, you can reduce the risk of contamination, minimize the spread of illnesses, and create a safer and more hygienic space for patients, staff, and customers alike.

Conductive Rubber
