Key Product Categories:

 

Tracks

 

Flints are stockists of Triple E, Doughty and Hall Stage track systems from simple lightweight tracks to heavy duty tracks suitable for arenas and touring.  Harken track is a smooth running system, its' low profile being ideal for use in bespoke builds. 

 

Castors, Turntables and Rollers

 

Our range of industrial light-duty castors all have pressed steel top plates with plain bearings. Wheels are polypropylene, or a quiet non-marking rubber tyre on plastic with a steel core. The Swivel Bolt-hole and Swivel Braked Bolt-hole castors have either a 10 mm or 12 mm bolt-hole. Our range of medium to heavy-duty industrial castors all have pressed steel top plates. The wheels are either nylon with plain bearings, or a tough polyurethane [PU] tyre on cast iron with ball bearings.

 

Brakes

 

When braked castors are not feasible we have a selection of separate brake units. For light trucks, a door stop with a rubber foot or even a rubber door wedge will often suffice. If positioning is crucial [and you can drill into the stage floor] then drop bolts work well.  For heavier duty applications we have a range of purpose built truck brakes, for example the ever-popular range from Triple E or even a system to turn truss structures into theatre trucks.
