8" Swivel & Fixed Casters

I bought these casters for my 200+ pound woodworking work bench. I tried my hand at making my own diy flip down casters and they worked ok but they always seemed flimsy. I finally got fed up and decided to buy these. Wow these casters are heavy duty. The wheels are nice and heavy duty. All of the steel is around 1/8” thick which makes them feel heavy and like they will last. Took about ten minutes to bolt on and they work awesome. Easy to lift the bench don’t feel flexing at all of mechanism when raising or lowering. The flip mechanism stays locked when it is up and all four swivels work awesome to allow me to easily move my heavy workbench around my small shop allowing me to make room for projects. I highly recommend these will last a long time and are not some cheap piece they are very well built. I will keep these in mind for future projects.

Perfect set of 4 caster wheels for a raised, mobile garden bed that needs to be moved over rugged ground in the back yard. There is little resistance to rolling/movement, even with a significant amount of weight distributed above - very smooth operation over flat surfaces, and sturdy operation over bumpy, hard clay or rocky areas. These were mounted to the bottom of 4, 6"x6" 3-ft. long posts, with 3/8"x3" (qty. 1) and 3/8"x2" (qty. 3) stainless steel lag bolts (purchased separately) for each. Although a bit pricy, the value in quality is high and we expect to get great longevity out of these wheels.

These replacement caster wheels work great and were easy to install. They are taller than the wheels they replaced and so elevated the height of the bin to which they were attached. No a problem for my project, but others should be sure to take any height differences into account when planning projects!

I build a dolly to handle a Four Wheel Camper truck slide-in popup camper for when it is not on my truck. I needed strong wheels that would allow me to push the camper on the dolly over the lip of the garage floor in order to get it inside the garage. The camper weighs about 1500 pounds plus there is the weight of the dolly. With that use case described they are very adequate. I bought two that swivel and two that do not. I am able to move the dolly inside the garage reasonably easily. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is: I had to buy a grease gun and grease the swivel wheels in order for them to swivel. They wouldn't turn beforehand and the bearings would have been damaged if I had forced it somehow or other. One more ticky tack, more my fault than Powertec's. I didn't notice none come with any kind of brake. Powertec didn't claim they do, but I wish it had been brought to my attention. Turns out it's not that important for my situation, but I probably would have bought something else had I known.

I freaking LOVE THE CASTERS!! As much as one can love casters - I love this 100x more! I ordered them before completing the framework of my workbench and after a very solid review / comparison from an amazon customer comparing it to the Rockwell version. I had some harbor freight casters laying in waiting but once these arrived and I checked out the quality I knew without hesitation they would kick butt, I returned the HF ones and a month later I installed these. Admittedly I raised and lowered my workbench about a dozen times. I sat and admired the coolness of these things more than I care to admit. While my skill level of woodworking is still very much beginner - these make me feel like a pro. I placed them on the interior of my posts because the set up of my WB will have nested carts stored under it, so far it’s been a breeze moving this around. The drop when i lowered my bench was dramatic the first time I used it so take that into consideration when installing these. I also added thin fabric to the bottom of the legs so the posts didn’t get damaged. This kit comes well packaged, has good solid weight and sturdiness to them, install was easier than all my other casters - even easier those cheapy ones that go into the plastic carts which obviously are easy but you get my point. Long story short, these casters rock, price is fantastic, and I wish I could put them on everything. Some of the other customer pics show the wheels slanted - mine don’t look like that, also mine don’t raise up more than an inch which is exactly how I wanted it to be. If you are debating on these STOP, get these casters now!! You will not be disappointed!

Perfect for my work bench. Enables moving my bench around with ease.

This set of Powertec 1700 Workbench Casters is a must for any work bench/table in the shop. For $60 (sometimes as high as $79) on Amazon and free shipping it is a great deal at $60. Just received via Prime and installed the same day - about 30 minutes total for all four legs. Simply drill two pilot holes for each caster - one at 4 3/4 inches and one at 2 inches from the floor, screw in the mounts, add the casters and tighten the caster bolts. Done. Works perfectly. I am now able to move my old woodworking table made from a 2X4s and 4X4s which I beefed up and converted to a machining/sharpening/grinding/pounding on table easily around the shop. I added a sheet of 1 inch plywood left over from some barn flooring and added a scrap piece of 1/2 inch sheet of plywood as the top. Then added additional table braces and a lower shelf made from 2X6s. Added a Rockler vise and machinist vise on opposite corners along with an old saw horse vise at one end. It also holds a removable grinder and sharpening wheel that I store on the shelf underneath. This beefed up table is very heavy by design and I needed the flexibility to move it around shop - sometimes it needs to be out of the way of the wood shop area and I also needed the ability to move it outside. The Powertec casters work perfectly for this. I mounted them on the inside length of the bench - mounting the shelf 10 inches high to allow for the caster levers - and this way the casters are not in my way when I have the work table on all fours. A simple detail to consider, but important if you don't want to trip over the casters/levers. Highly recommend these casters for any work table or work bench where you need the flexibility to move it. I plan to build a new wood working work table/assembly table and will get another set of Powertec casters for this as well.

In a small shop, you need to keep everything mobile. Work bench included. After attaching these to my workbench, I added a peice of angle iron to them (attaching two together), somI do not rack my bench when lifting it. These work great.

Prodotto valido. Per averlo ho atteso più tempo del solito, circa due settimane. Visto il periodo (Lockdown per Covid-19) e la provenienza ( Amazon riportava USA nella descrizione) mi posso ritenere fortunato. Il package contiene 4 ruote ad avvitare su altrettante staffe che una volta montate permettono il sollevamento o la discesa del banco di lavoro con pochissima pressione (vedi video). Contiene inoltre le viti e il foglietto illustrativo con le istruzioni (inglese). Utilissimo il foglio da utilizzare come maschera di foratura. Montato in 20 minuti. Svolge il suo compito. Nessun problema di scorrimento ne di sollevamento. Il banco su cui l'ho montato è 180x80x66 ed è molto pesante. Per dovere di cronaca devo riportare che nel kit che ho ricevuto mancava una vite e che il materiale con cui sono fatte è tenero. Ho dovuto sostituirle perchè l'avviatore mangiava la testa prima ancora di arrivare alla coppia massima. Per il resto vale l'acquisto.

Verdaderamente me sorprendió la calidad de estas rodajas, de construcción robusta, excelente acabado, yo esperaba algo más débil, un poco desechable y no definitivamente lo calificó con un 9 sobre 10, no llega a 10 por que le falta creo yo un poco de información acerca del diametro del agujero piloto requerido para los tornillos de fijación al banco de trabajo

Son resistentes y prácticas para mi mesa de trabajo. Tengo un juego más de éstas fijas en otra mesa y en ocasiones me estorban. El uso de los platos de liberación rápida es muy útil.

I used these for my woodwork bench which sits on a concrete floor. My bench is very heavy solid hardwood. These castors are brilliant. The four hole fixing is fine although I had to substitute 2 screws due to the heads of the supplied ones being a bit soft. I also bolted them in pairs using a length of timber. (See Woodsmiths tip). I can now easily raise and lower my bench and position with ease. Perfect.

Works great. Easy to operate and lifted my heavy worktable with a glance. Just hit the brown sleeve upwards with the foot the get it down again. Quality, except for the skrews.
