Caster Wheels

Caster wheels, also known as castors, are rotating wheels mounted on the bottom of objects to facilitate smooth movement and maneuverability. They are commonly used on furniture, carts, trolleys, and various types of equipment. The primary purpose of caster wheels is to allow easy transportation of heavy or bulky items by reducing friction and enabling multidirectional movement.

Caster wheels typically consist of a wheel mounted on a swivel or fixed axle, which is connected to a mounting plate or bracket. The mounting plate is then attached to the object or equipment, allowing it to roll and change direction easily. The wheel itself is usually made of materials such as rubber, plastic, or metal, depending on the intended use and load capacity.
