Peachtree Woodworking Supply Workbench Caster kit 4 Heavy Duty Retractable Casters with 4 Pin Lock Quick Release Mounting Plates, Quickly Attach/Remove or Switch Casters from a Workbench to a Cabinet

How is it I never knew castors like these existed? I put these on my new 4' x 8' work table...over 250# just for the table. Not only do they work, they work better than expected! Installation was easy. Maybe 20 minutes for all four. The plates install first, then the castor assembly just slips in place. They operate smoothly. With a stuff on the table and tools stored underneath, its easily 400#. The first caster you push down takes a little effort, the other three are easy. There is a little bit of a trick to it, that the instructions do not mention. Make sure the castors are pointing straight away from the leg when you press down on the lever. Rolls very smoothly across the concrete floor...almost too easy for something that heavy..

I bought a set of these to let me move a heavy duty workbench around my shop. Steel legs and a heavy hardwood top, and an accumulation of odds and ends. Probably 400+ lbs of weight. The casters were a breeze to install using the provided template. The bench lifts easy with foot pressure. It rolls smoothly over the concrete. The casters lift the leg maybe 3/4", so it's fine on a smooth surface, but I suspect they won't work very well on a rough or uneven surface. One thing to bear in mind - if your bench, desk, whatever, has adjustable leveling feet it could interfere with installation of the bolts. Ideally the bolts (or screws if you use that option) should be centered on the middle of the leg, and the template provided with the casters is set up for centering the holes. In my case I had to move the holes about 1/2" off center to avoid the threads of the leveling feet.

These were a very easy install. They lift and drop the table ok. However, I have pieces of carpet in my garage. These wheels would buckle under when they hit the carpet. I even had some instances where even on the concrete floor, when changing directions moving they wheels would buckle under too. I haven't even loaded my other tools on the table, so hopefully it doesn't become even more of an issue.

This product is perfect for my project. I have two workbenches and use this product along with an additional set of mounting plates to allow movement/placement of benches without having the casters permanently attached. Very well designed and sturdy. Would recommend and buy again.

I needed a way to easily move my Dobsonian telescope. The scope has to sit, stably, on the ground, but has to be mobile, so I can get it out of my garage, without disassembly, and lifting. These workbench casters work perfectly, for my purpose. I couldn't be happier. They were very easy to install. The ability to completely remove the wheels by just removing a pin, is a huge bonus.

I installed the loose plates on many of mu machines and benches, and purchased a single set of casters. I can move the casters from one item to the next easily and the system works extremely well. Some of my work benches are in excess of 400 lbs, and they move easily on these casters. I find the cost to be very reasonable if employed as an entire system, and I love the fact that I can remove the casters and save my ankles from the bumps and scrapes that come along with protrusions typical of locking casters. The benches are sitting on the stable legs and I can still move them with ease. Top rated item in my opinion.

Heavy duty and easy to install. Great for my 10" work bench!

Overall fit form and function are good for the casters. Easy enough to install. However, a few caveats. First, this particular model, in my opinion, is over rated for weight. 900lbs is too high a rating. Second, The casters actual lift is very short. You can't roll over any kind of door threshold. So they will work perfectly for super flat concrete floor, but maneuvering over any bumps or entryways is impossible at 900lbs. So I really like the idea of these casters but if they want to make them actually usable at 900lbs they will have to be stronger and lift a bit higher. For moving units well under 900lbs these will work much better.
