500 Series Platform Trolley

500 Series Platform Trolley – 500 kg Capacity with Electro-Galvanised Steel Frame

This is a heavy-duty platform trolley designed for regular internal transport. The frame is made from electro-galvanised steel for good corrosion resistance in demanding working environments, and the load surface is a durable 12 mm MDF deck that gives cartons, packages, components and other goods a flat, reliable base. The result is a practical platform truck that feels solid in daily use without becoming awkward to manoeuvre.

Electro-galvanised steel frame and MDF deck

The frame is one of the key reasons this heavy-duty platform truck feels dependable in use. Electro-galvanised steel gives the trolley a clean, durable finish and adds corrosion resistance for everyday industrial handling. It is a sensible choice for a platform trolley that may be used in warehouses, dispatch areas, production spaces or loading points where the equipment is expected to work hard and keep its shape over time.

The 12 mm MDF deck brings the same practical thinking to the load surface. It is rigid enough for daily transport, flat enough for a wide range of goods and durable enough for repeated handling. Because the deck sits low at a platform height of 260 mm, loading feels more manageable from floor level and unloading is less awkward. That lower height also helps when goods are moved on and off the trolley frequently during the same shift.

Secure grip

Control starts with the handles. The 25 mm tubular steel handles are shaped to give a firm, comfortable grip and better control of the trolley during starts, turns and stops. That may sound like a small detail, but it becomes important as soon as the load gets heavier or taller. A secure hand position helps keep the platform truck steady and makes it easier to guide the load cleanly through aisles, corners and workstations.

Confident steering

This platform trolley is fitted with four wheels: two fixed castors and two swivel castors. That is a proven setup for industrial trolleys because it gives a sensible balance between stability and manoeuvrability. The fixed wheels help the trolley track cleanly in a straight line, while the swivel castors make direction changes easier. In daily work, that means the trolley feels predictable instead of loose or wandering.

Wheel diameter also plays a real part in usability. The 200 mm wheels help the trolley roll smoothly and contribute to dependable day-to-day handling. Combined with the solid rubber tyres, they provide a durable wheel setup for regular internal transport. Where extra safety is needed, the 500 Series is also available as a braked platform trolley, giving you better control when the trolley is parked or held in position during loading.

Model options and dimensions

The 500 Series is available in two overall sizes and three side or end configurations. Overall height is 900 mm across the listed models, and the platform height is 260 mm. That keeps the trolley compact enough for everyday use while still providing a deck size suited to heavier goods and larger loads.
