Heavy Duty Casters for Munitions and Material Handling

Built for Battle: How Aerol’s Premium Casters Power the Safe Movement of Munitions

When you’re in the business of moving explosive materials, there’s really no margin for error. How could there be?

Every bolt, wheel, and bearing must perform flawlessly lives depend on equipment that’s ready for the job. That’s why defense contractors, aerospace facilities, and munitions manufacturers trust Aerol, the American innovator behind the most rugged, reliable, and safety-driven casters in the industry.

For decades, Aerol has engineered mobility solutions that go far beyond standard, empowering our nation’s most critical industries with premium, custom-engineered casters that conquer heat, corrosion, weight, and danger.

When others hesitate, Aerol delivers confidently, boldly, and without compromise.

The Challenge: Moving the Unmovable.

Material handling mobility always involves controlled, predictable, safe motion. Whether it’s a hand truck, tow cart, ground support platform, or automated guided vehicle (AGV), every system depends on one thing: dependable wheels that roll under extreme conditions. In defense environments, it’s not even a slight exaggeration to say that challenge intensifies tenfold.

Munitions facilities face harsh realities. A single spark can trigger catastrophe. A slight vibration can destabilize a payload. Irregular terrain, explosive vapors, and metal-on-metal impact risks turn routine transport into a high-stakes mission. Standard industrial casters aren’t designed for such hazard levels. Aerol’s are. We understand the stakes.

Engineered for Munitions Handling

When you’re moving shells, missile components, or explosive canisters, control isn’t optional it’s everything. Aerol’s spark-proof, non-magnetic, and shock-absorbing casters are built for these exact challenges. Each design is a fusion of engineering precision and real-world toughness:

• Spark Resistance: Aerol uses non-ferrous materials like aluminum, brass, and bronze eliminating steel-on-steel friction and reducing ignition risk. Our conductive treads dissipate static buildup safely.
• Non-Magnetic Construction: For operations sensitive to magnetic interference, Aerol designs casters completely free from ferrous metals.
• Shock Absorption: Advanced treads and suspension options protect delicate ordnance from vibration, impact, and instability.
• Braking Systems: From deadman brakes to total lock systems, Aerol ensures that once you stop you stay stopped.
• Corrosion and Chemical Resistance: Military-grade coatings, sealed bearings, and stainless hardware withstand the toughest chemical and environmental exposures.
• High Load Capacity: Designed to handle immense weight with uncompromising safety and longevity. We were made to move the unmovable.

Every Aerol caster designed for munitions handling meets all AS9001D standards, reinforcing our commitment to reliability and compliance.

Why Material Handling Mobility Matters.

Efficient material handling isn’t just about movement it’s about creating a flexible, safe, and efficient flow of materials throughout a facility. In the defense industry, Mobility is more than movement it’s mission efficiency.

Casters and mobility systems allow for:

• Space Optimization: Equipment can be repositioned safely and quickly to accommodate shifting production needs.
• Flexibility: Whether manual or automated, mobility systems support multiple handling modes from hand-pushed carts to AGVs and AMRs.
• Productivity: Smooth, stable motion reduces strain, speeds up processes, and prevents costly disruptions.
• Safety: Shock absorption and spark resistance protect operators, products, and facilities alike.

Aerol doesn’t just manufacture components we build confidence into every movement.

Designed for the Frontline of Safety.

Every Aerol caster reflects our company’s uncompromising approach to safety and performance. From spark-proof munitions carts to corrosion-resistant ground support equipment, Aerol designs every product to function under the most extreme conditions imaginable.

Our spark-proof caster assemblies integrate:

• Conductive treads for electrostatic discharge control.
• Sealed swivel sections for better reliability and less maintenance
• Precision machining for friction reduction and rolling stability.

This meticulous attention to design ensures that Aerol casters perform where failure is not an option inside ammunition depots, defense maintenance hangars, or mobile launch support systems.

Proudly Made in the USA — and Built to Go Beyond.

Aerol’s manufacturing facilities in the United States combine old-school craftsmanship with cutting-edge innovation. Every caster and wheel is precision-engineered, tested, and refined to withstand punishing environments. If a scenario seems insurmountable, we say, “Bring it on.”

Through close collaboration with the military, aviation, and aerospace sectors, Aerol continues to pioneer advanced mobility systems from shock-mitigating casters to corrosion-proof assemblies and specialized mounting systems. Our new digital infrastructure, including CMMC compliance, underscores our commitment to meeting the evolving cybersecurity and quality requirements of the Department of Defense.

The Aerol Difference

When the mission calls for absolute reliability, Aerol answers. Aways.

Our products don’t just roll — they lead. They carry the weight of innovation, safety, and American engineering pride.

From bomb carts and missile transport trailers to assembly line mobility and depot dollies, Aerol’s munitions-grade casters are built to perform under fire — literally and figuratively.

If your operation demands movement without compromise, trust Aerol to deliver the mobility that moves your mission forward.
