Review: High quality replacements - 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!
Review: By far one of the coolest things in my shop - 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 desertcart 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!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How high from of the floor edge of the leg should the base plate be attached?**
A: Please pay attention to this and you will have the best and level lifting and standing of your equipment, whatever it is. 1, On the end that you have the least weight on, place the caster in the raised position and raise the equipment you are installing them on until the caster in the raised position placed against the wall you are mounting it to and mark the base holes and drill the holes, I prefer bolts with nuts, this will make the equipment level when its raised, remember, this is 2 casters on the same side with the same mounting as I just outlined. 2. after you have the first casters mounted, lower the equipment to the ground and it will be standing on its own with the first casters raised, 3. On the opposite side ,lower the caster before you make this move , mount the casters with the wheels barely touching the floor,( be sure to leave the casters in the lowered height). after the casters are mounted on this end, leaving them lowered, go to the other side and raise the equipment. At this point, you should see that both sides are raised when you have only raised one end, you should see the opposite end that you didn't raise will be barely off the ground, this allows a smooth move but a little higher on one end than the other, but, you wont have to be afraid of the lowest side dropping down because its already down, but, you can raise it is you need too.

**Q: Do these need heavy foot pressure to lift a 200 lb workbench or can I actuate them by reaching under the workbench and using my hand?**
A: I believe that you'd be lifting roughly half the bench weight, something close to 100#. I had problems with a heavier bench because when you activate one caster, that entire end of the bench comes off the floor. Although rated for 400 lb, my 320# bench bent the caster mount plate on two sets because half the bench's weight was being put on the first caster activated. It perhaps would have worked if I could have linked two casters and spread the load, or if the caster mount plate were made of stronger steel. It helps everything out if you help with lifting the bench, even slightly, while activating the lever with your foot. That would be hard to do if you are activating with your hand.

**Q: I see these are often purchased with the Spacecare brand step down casters. Do these mounting plates fit those well?**
A: The Spacecare 600 lb. casters use a smaller plate. However, the Workbench Casters from Peachtree work fine with these plates.

**Q: Do these work with the Powertec 17000 casters?**
A: don"t know for sure t about hey are made by same company they should but not knowing anything about 17000 casters i would text Powertec to find out for sure i used them with Rockler 2 3/8" urethane casters with a foot activated lift mechanism. if that is any use to you

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply perfect...
*by J***E on January 29, 2016*

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.
