User Reviews
I put these on the base of my old Craftsman table saw, which has a cast iron top and is plenty heavy. The casters work great---very smooth rolling, given the heavy load. Thanks to reviewer John Z. for the info regarding the hex nuts (though they are 12mm-1.75, not 12mm-1.175).
Another reviewer commented that the locking mechanism is not as pictured, and this is true (it looks more like the one pictured for the Steelex D2608). However, it seems to be working fine on all four wheels and doesn't seem flimsy to me. When locked, the saw was solid during operation, though I admit I made only a few test cuts so far and nothing too demanding. The quality of the casters was impressive overall. I won't hesitate buying these again should the need arise.
-- Excellent heavy-duty caster
Installed these wheels on my Powermatic band saw, what a difference they make in the convenience of moving the saw. I ordered 8 of these wheels and will order more to use on some more of my equipment. You can't go wrong with these wheels. Shipping was quick. -- Excellent product
I've had these on my Delta contrator's table saw for a while now and they're great, handling the cracks in the floor with ease. They're easy to operate, locking securely and rolling smoothly. I've since bought several more to put on other tools in my workshop. What a great value they are. As others have stated, the M-12 size metric nuts and washers are easily found, so installs have been a breeze for me. -- these are great, at a great price!
Put these casters on my table saw and gained much needed mobility around my shop. They're inexpensive, save your back from having to tug your saw or whatever around, stay nicely when brakes applied. A good deal. The only negative, as mentioned by another rater, is getting the metric nuts to secure the casters. As the other person did, I took the information to Home Depot and found the nuts. I had tried at two local hardware stores to find the nuts, which they didn't have. It would be a nice touch for the company to include the 4 hard to find nuts. -- An Inexpensive Mobility Fix
I purchased this product to help me move my heavy 10" table saw around my shop. I does exactly what I wanted. It's not to tall and makes that table at a comfortable height.I have tried others, but they are to large and makes the table to tall. They lock in nice and tight and the locks are easily removed. I recommend this product to anyone who has any machinery you need to move around and need to lock it into prosition to use it. -- Does exactly what I wanted.
