Machinery Skates

Machinery Skates for Moving Heavy Equipment

At The Scale Warehouse and More, we offer heavy-duty machinery skates designed for the safe, controlled movement of industrial equipment, machinery, and other heavy loads. These low-profile moving solutions help reposition bulky equipment in factories, warehouses, maintenance facilities, and rigging applications where forklifts or cranes may not be practical.

Choose the Right Type of Machinery Skate

• Rigid machinery skates: Best for moving equipment in a straight line.
• Swivel machinery skates: Allow easier turning and maneuvering in tighter spaces.
• Steerable skate kits: Help guide and control large machines during coordinated moves.
• Padded-top skates: Help protect painted, polished, or finished equipment surfaces.
• Diamond-top skates: Provide additional grip between the skate and the load.

Wheel Material and Floor Surface

• Nylon or polyurethane wheels: A good choice for finished floors where surface protection is important.
• Steel wheels: Designed for very heavy loads and durable industrial floor surfaces.

Selecting the Correct Capacity

Choose machinery skates with a combined rated capacity greater than the total weight of the equipment being moved. The load should be distributed evenly across all skates, and the equipment’s center of gravity, floor condition, travel direction, and turning requirements should also be considered.

Our selection includes individual roller skates, swivel skates, steerable models, complete moving kits, handles, and accessories in a range of capacities and configurations.
