Description
The 6 Tonne Fixed Load Skate is designed for moving heavy machinery and equipment across smooth, level industrial floors. With a load capacity of 6000kg, this skate features a durable steel frame and six large diameter nylon rollers that help distribute weight evenly while allowing loads to move smoothly during relocation tasks. The rubber topped platform helps keep equipment stable and reduces the risk of slipping while the load is being moved.
This fixed skate is commonly used alongside steerable load skates to support controlled machinery movement in workshops, warehouses, factories, and plant maintenance environments. The low profile design allows it to be positioned easily beneath equipment once the load is raised slightly using a roller crowbar or jack. Integrated carry handles allow operators to move and position the skate quickly during setup, making it suitable for machinery installation, relocation, and maintenance work.
Product FAQs
It is used to support and relocate large industrial machinery, heavy structures, or plant equipment up to 6 tonnes. Typically used as part of a three or four-point skate system.
No. This is a fixed skate, designed only for straight-line movement. It must be paired with a compatible steerable skate for directional control.
Not recommended. Due to its fixed configuration and high load capacity, it should be used in conjunction with steerable skates and additional fixed skates to ensure stability and control.
The skate is fitted with high-strength nylon rollers designed for smooth indoor surfaces. These wheels help distribute load weight and reduce rolling resistance.
Only use on level, clean, and smooth indoor surfaces such as polished concrete. Avoid use on sloped, uneven, or outdoor surfaces.
No. As a fixed skate, the LSR018 has no steering function or handle mount. For guided movement, Richmond recommends combining it with a steerable skate like the LSR008 or LSR013.
Yes. It is commonly used by riggers and contractors for moving switchboards, structural frames, heavy machinery bases, and other high-load applications.
LSR010 supports 2.5 tonnes – suited for medium loads.
LSR009 supports 3 tonnes – commonly paired with steerable skates.
LSR018 offers a 6 tonne rating – Richmond’s highest fixed skate capacity for large-scale moves.
