This Wesco 230077 steel appliance truck with kick-out swivel casters can be used for transporting appliances and other heavy loads up to 1,800 lb. It has a noseplate that measures 24 x 5 inches (W x D), and the frame measures 27 x 16 x 78 inches (W x D x H) overall. (W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back; H is height, the vertical distance from bottom to top.) The hand truck has two 10" polyurethane load wheels, and a kick-out frame with two 6" polyurethane swivel casters in the rear for increased support and maneuverability. It has two built-in auto-rewind clasped cargo belts for securing the load. A lever-activated fulcrum system allows the fulcrum point to adjust automatically as the truck is tilted, reducing the required break-over effort. This steel appliance truck with kick-out swivel casters is suitable for use in industrial and commercial material handling applications.Hand trucks, also known as two-wheeled dollies, are used to transport heavy or bulky items, especially in commercial product distribution and delivery. Hand trucks are L-shaped, with handles at the top, two wheels at the bottom, and a small platform that touches the ground when the truck is upright. A load is placed on the platform and the truck is tilted back, balancing the weight over the wheels. Powered hand trucks have a platform that lifts the load up, or lowers it down, to reduce human labor. Some hand trucks may be convertible to platform trucks for moving large or cumbersome loads. Others fold flat for storage.Wesco manufactures material handling equipment under the Wesco and Lexco brands. The company, founded in 1948, is headquartered in North Wales, PA.
