What Is the Orthoscan Locking Swivel Caster (450-0011)?
Product: Orthoscan Swivel Caster, Locking
Part Number: 450-0011
The Orthoscan Locking Swivel Caster (450-0011) is the locking swivel wheel assembly used on the Orthoscan HD, FD, FD-OR, and FD Pulse mini C-arms. The swivel caster allows the system to maneuver freely in any direction during transport and repositioning, while the locking mechanism engages to hold the system stationary during clinical use — preventing the workstation from rolling during imaging procedures. Mini C-arms are moved frequently throughout the clinical day and the casters are subject to wear, cracking, flat spots, and locking mechanism failure over time. Replacement is indicated when the caster no longer rolls smoothly, when the locking mechanism does not hold reliably, when the wheel is visibly damaged or has developed a flat spot, or during full cosmetic refurbishment prior to resale or redeployment. A damaged or non-locking caster can present a safety concern during clinical use and should be replaced promptly. Also available: the front swivel caster (450-0011) for the front two casters.

What are the signs that a caster needs to be replaced?+

A non-locking or damaged caster should be replaced promptly as it can present a safety concern during clinical use.
