Universal Swivel Castor Wheels – 360° Rotating Wheels

Product Description

The Universal Swivel Castor Wheels are designed to provide smooth, flexible mobility for furniture, robotics platforms, workshop trolleys, storage racks, and various industrial equipment. Featuring a 360° swivel mechanism, these wheels allow movement in multiple directions, making it easier to manoeuvre equipment in confined spaces.

Available in multiple sizes, these castor wheels can feature PU, nylon, or rubber wheel materials depending on the selected variant. The metal mounting bracket provides support for installation, while the bearing mechanism helps ensure smooth rolling. Selected variants are available with a locking brake to help keep equipment stationary when required.

With their versatile design and multiple mounting options, these castor wheels are suitable for DIY projects, engineering prototypes, commercial applications, and general material-handling requirements.

Specifications

Design and Construction

The castor wheel assembly consists of a wheel, a swivel mechanism, and a metal mounting bracket. The swivel mechanism allows the wheel to rotate through 360°, helping equipment change direction without requiring the entire unit to be lifted or repositioned manually.

The wheel material varies by model. PU wheels can offer a balance of durability and floor protection, while nylon wheels are suited to applications requiring a hard-wearing wheel. Rubber wheels can provide additional cushioning and grip, depending on the specific design.

Mounting arrangements and brake availability depend on the selected variant. Check the product options before ordering to ensure compatibility with your equipment.

Working Principle

The wheel rolls along the floor while the swivel assembly rotates around its vertical mounting axis. This combination allows the attached equipment to move forward, backward, sideways, and around corners.

On models equipped with a locking brake, the brake mechanism can be engaged to restrict wheel movement. The exact locking function may vary by model, so verify whether the selected variant locks the wheel alone or both the wheel and swivel mechanism.

Applications

• Robotics and Mechatronics: Support wheels for robot platforms, line-following robots, and autonomous prototypes.

• DIY Furniture: Workbenches, bookshelves, storage racks, TV stands, and mobile cabinets.

• Workshop Trolleys and Carts: Tool carts, utility trolleys, and material-handling platforms.

• Display and Retail Units: Mobile display stands, exhibition kiosks, and movable signage.

• Industrial Equipment: Instrument carts, machinery bases, and equipment stands.

• College and School Projects: Engineering prototypes, science projects, and demonstration models.

• Home and Office: Mobile storage units and other compatible furniture.

Package Includes

• Universal swivel castor wheel(s), according to the selected quantity and variant.

• Pre-assembled mounting bracket and swivel plate.

• Mounting screws or hardware, where included with the selected variant.

• Product documentation and support information, where provided.

Note: Confirm the quantity, wheel size, mounting style, brake option, and included hardware before ordering.

Product Disclaimer

• Wheel material, mounting style, bracket finish, brake availability, and load capacity vary by selected variant.

• The stated load capacity of 15–50 kg applies per wheel and must be verified for the specific model. The total safe load also depends on the number of wheels, load distribution, mounting strength, floor conditions, and movement.

• For equipment supported by multiple wheels, uneven floors or uneven weight distribution may cause individual wheels to carry more load than expected.

• Floor protection and noise levels depend on the wheel material, floor surface, and operating conditions. Do not assume every variant is non-marking or silent.

• The stated 7-day warranty for manufacturing defects, shipping estimates, and support availability are seller-provided terms and should be confirmed before purchase.

• Product images are for illustration and representation purposes only. The actual product may slightly differ in appearance, colour, design, or component placement due to manufacturing variations and production batches.
