Caster Wheel

Caster wheels are specialized wheels that are mounted on a swivel mechanism, known as a caster, to provide mobility and easy maneuverability to various objects and equipment. These wheels are designed to rotate freely in any direction, allowing for smooth movement and changes in direction with minimal effort.

Caster wheels typically consist of a wheel mounted on an axle, which is attached to a bracket or housing containing a swivel mechanism. The swivel mechanism allows the wheel to rotate 360 degrees, providing multidirectional movement. The housing may also include a locking mechanism to secure the wheel in a fixed position when necessary.

Caster wheels are commonly made of durable materials such as rubber, plastic, or metal, depending on the specific application requirements. The choice of material depends on factors such as load capacity, floor protection, noise reduction, and resistance to wear and tear.
