Tips

Do I have HARD or SOFT Wheels - See how to check.

Some casters on this page are sold in both 50mm and 60mm sizes. This is a comparison between the two different sizes. Casters on most chairs and furniture have 50mm wheels and work fine for most applications. If you require additional capacity or are going to roll on carpet, you may want to consider the 60mm size.

These casters are on this Web Page.

If you are in a chair many hours each day and your weight exceeds 200 lbs, we suggest you consider using casters with at least 3" diameter wheels. Capacity is only one factor in determining the proper caster.

If your weight is between 350 lbs and 500 lbs, our Mr. Big Caster may be your best choice. It only comes with nylon wheels and will require a thick mat to protect wood floors. Nylon wheels are the best material when rolling directly on carpet but carpet wear can not be avoided. For more information, and to order, click here.
