Update to Varimixer Bowl Truck Casters

Update to Varimixer Bowl Truck Casters

Varimixer is introducing an upgraded caster (wheel) configuration for applicable V-series and ERGO-series bowl trucks.

This update transitions applicable bowl trucks to stainless-steel single-wheel casters as the standard configuration, providing a more durable and corrosion-resistant solution designed for improved performance in demanding foodservice environments.


 

What is Changing? 

  • The existing dual-wheel caster 22R150-520 is replaced by 22AR31-520.3 (stainless steel)

 

Key Improvements:

  • Improved corrosion resistance and cleanability
  • Greater durability and increased load capacity
  • Simplified caster range and easier spare-parts identification

 22AR31-520.3ZB

 

Installation Height 
 99 > 102 mmx

 

Load Capacity (per caster) 
 198.4 > 308.6 lbs.

 

Important Information for Replacement 

 

The updated casters are designed to fit applicable existing bowl trucks. However, Varimixer now supplies replacement casters exclusively as complete sets of four (4-piece kits). Individual casters are no longer available. This ensures all four wheels can be renewed together and simplifies spare-parts ordering.


For the large caster update (22AR31-520.3), the installation height changes from 99 mm to 102 mm. For proper fit and stability, all four casters must be replaced at the same time, and old and new casters must not be mixed on the same truck when installation heights differ.

 

Ordering (kits only):

  • Please order one complete kit (4 casters) for the applicable bowl truck: 22AR31-520.3ZB

 

Availability

The old dual wheel caster (22R150-520) is available while supplies last. Implementation of the new single wheel casters on bowl trucks (VBTRUCK) will occur during Q3/Q4 2026 as existing inventory is used.

If you need assistance identifying the correct four-caster replacement kit for your specific bowl truck, please contact Varimixer support.
