Pneumatic Tyred Castors
Richmond supplies a comprehensive range of Pneumatic Tyred Castors designed to provide smooth, cushioned movement across uneven indoor and outdoor surfaces. Featuring air-filled rubber tyres with excellent shock absorption, these castors help protect delicate loads while reducing vibration during transport over gravel, grass, pavers, concrete and other challenging terrain.
Available in a variety of wheel diameters, frame styles and load capacities, Richmond Pneumatic Tyred Castors are suitable for trolleys, carts, portable equipment, staging, catering equipment and material handling applications. Swivel, rigid and braked models are available to suit different operational requirements.

Smooth Rolling Performance for Indoor & Outdoor Applications
Pneumatic Tyred Castors use high-pressure air-filled tyres to absorb impacts that would normally be transferred through solid wheels. This provides a smoother ride when transporting fragile equipment, reducing vibration and improving operator comfort across rough or uneven ground.
Commonly used on equipment operating outdoors, pneumatic castors perform well on grass, gravel, compacted soil, bitumen and concrete. They are equally suitable for indoor applications where sensitive loads benefit from additional cushioning during transport.
Product Types by Application
Swivel Pneumatic Castors
Swivel Pneumatic Castors provide excellent manoeuvrability for equipment that requires frequent directional changes.
They are commonly used on trolleys, carts, portable staging and mobile equipment operating across mixed terrain.
Rigid Pneumatic Castors
Rigid Pneumatic Castors provide straight-line tracking for applications where directional stability is important.
They are often combined with swivel castors to improve control when transporting heavier loads.
Braked Pneumatic Castors
Braked Pneumatic Castors allow equipment to be securely positioned when stationary.
Integrated brake mechanisms improve safety during loading, unloading and operation on sloping surfaces.
Heavy Duty Pneumatic Castors
Heavy-duty models are available with higher load capacities for industrial equipment and demanding outdoor applications.
Larger wheel diameters improve obstacle clearance while maintaining smooth rolling performance over rough ground.
Key Features
Air-Filled Pneumatic Tyres
High-pressure pneumatic tyres absorb shocks and vibrations that occur when travelling over uneven surfaces.
This helps protect transported goods while improving operator comfort.
Excellent Outdoor Performance
Pneumatic tyres roll easily across grass, gravel, pavers, compacted soil and uneven outdoor surfaces.
Their large footprint helps maintain mobility where hard wheels may struggle.
Wide Range of Sizes
Richmond offers pneumatic castors in multiple wheel diameters and load capacities to suit light-duty through to heavy-duty applications.
Swivel, rigid and braked configurations allow each application to be matched with the appropriate castor arrangement.
Reduced Vibration
The cushioning effect of pneumatic tyres minimises vibration transmitted through equipment during transport.
This makes them ideal for delicate equipment, portable staging and fragile loads.
