What is the difference between wheels and casters?
Wheels are filled with air and casters are made of solid rubber or plastic.
How do I know what size casters I need?
Smaller casters are better for smaller and lighter furniture and smooth floors, while large casters can bear more weight and roll better on rough surfaces.
How do I choose a caster or wheel?
Consider the location and weight of your appliance or furniture and how often you'll move it. Wheels are perfect for items used outdoors on soft surfaces like turf and soil. Casters roll more smoothly on hard floors and solid surfaces, making them ideal for indoor use. Features like swivel bases and built-in brakes can enhance maneuverability and stability.
What tools do I need to replace or install furniture wheels and casters?
You’ll need to be able to secure the wheels or casters, which may require different types of fasteners and the hand tools to tighten them.
