Penn Elcom Launches Automatic Castors

Penn Elcom's automatic castors

Penn Elcom Online announces a new product -- Automatic Castors -- a neat and ingenious product ... for the flight case making sector.

The flightcase components, are available via Penn Elcom's global online sales portal which went live earlier in the year and is proving a huge success.

The company says anyone using a flightcase will appreciate the benefit of automatic castors.

The product utilizes a unique self-centering mechanism, developed by Penn's R&D team, that stops the caster spinning and clicks it into the straight position when it's being lifted or not bearing any load.

This simple and ingenious device will make stacking case systems and loading trucks at a show or concert faster, easier, and much safer than ever before.

The sheer frustration of picking up the case and assuming awkward positions or trying to wiggle potentially heavy loads to align the wheels properly in the right orientation for stacking ... is over. The castors simply do it themselves.

Penn's automatic technology is currently available for both braked and non-braked versions of their standard "heavy duty" 10mm / 3.94" castor which comes with 27mm / 1"-wide blue rubber tire.

Penn Elcom has been selling its robust and rugged castors for many years, but now the company says "the automatic platform moves flightcases into a different league."

Automatic castors are straightforward to retro-fit on any standard castor wheelbase for additional flexibility.

"We had an instant response and have experienced massive interest," stated Pen Elcom online's Rob Platt. "It's one of the simplest but most innovative products Penn Elcom has ever developed and brought to the market and it's well priced, so we are expecting it to be a best seller!" he concluded.
