Omcan 16" x 60" Heavy-Duty U-Boat Utility Cart - 2500 lb. Capacity, Gray

A U-boat has raised end walls that prevent boxes from sliding off when the cart is pushed or pulled at speed. The Omcan 16" x 60" Heavy-Duty U-Boat Utility Cart 2500 lb Capacity Gray is built for stockroom, receiving, and warehouse-style hauling where stability matters more than easy load access.

A busing cart typically tops out at 300 to 500 lb. The Omcan 16" x 60" Heavy-Duty U-Boat Utility Cart 2500 lb Capacity Gray is a different category entirely, sized for full pallet loads of canned goods, beverages, or bulk supplies in a receiving operation.

60" length holds two standard 30" wide cases end-to-end, while the 16" width fits through standard 28" doorways with room to spare. The Omcan 16" x 60" Heavy-Duty U-Boat Utility Cart 2500 lb Capacity Gray balances capacity with maneuverability.

Stockroom hauling is the primary use case. For food-contact transport (plated food, prepared meals), use a dedicated bussing cart with smooth wash-down surfaces. U-boats are designed for cased goods and unopened packaging, not direct food contact.

Yes, heavy carts require discipline: * Always push rather than pull a loaded cart * Don't exceed the 2500 lb rating, which strains casters * Lock the cart against a wall when loading and unloading * Wear closed-toe footwear; pinch points on casters are real

Inspect monthly for damage, debris in the bearings, or play in the swivel post. Lubricate per the manufacturer's schedule, and replace cracked or worn-out casters before they fail under load. Caster failure on a loaded cart is dangerous.

Yes, the cart ships with a 180-Day warranty against manufacturing defects under normal commercial use. Document the SKU and date of purchase to streamline any warranty claim during the coverage period.
