1. Ọja Ipariview
The COMET 2523-L1 / FG2523L10000 is a retractable step stool caster specifically designed for use with Rubbermaid Stepstools models 2523, 2523-31, 2523-38, and 2524-1. This caster features a unique retractable mechanism: when weight is applied to the step stool, the caster retracts, allowing the stool to rest firmly on its outer rim for stability. When the weight is removed, the caster extends, enabling easy movement of the stool. Each caster is designed to contribute to a maximum weight capacity of 350 lbs for a complete set, aligning with GSA standards for the compatible stepstools.

3. Awọn Ilana Ṣiṣẹ
The COMET retractable step stool caster operates on a simple yet effective mechanism. When the step stool is not in use or is being moved, the casters are extended, allowing the stool to roll freely across surfaces. This facilitates easy repositioning of the stool without lifting.
Upon applying weight to the step stool (e.g., when a user steps onto it), the internal spring mechanism of the caster compresses. This causes the caster wheel to retract upwards, lifting the wheel off the ground. The step stool then settles firmly onto its stable outer rim, providing a secure and non-moving platform for the user. When the weight is removed, the spring decompresses, and the caster extends back down, allowing the stool to be moved again.
