Helloooo Dollyeeee!!!!!!!, July 13, 2009
By BillMac from Panama City FL

"After breaking numerous piano and moving dollys I decided to take things into my own hands and build a serious dolly. My guys have nicknamed our new dolly "Bigfoot" as we have 6 of these pneumatic casters under a 4x3 foot frame made of 2x8s. Needless to say it is heavy but it rolls across my gravel lot with ease while holding 12 foot beams and pipes for boat lifts. Due to the placement of the building and the road we cannot use a dock so we load directly from the lift gate on the truck down to "bigfoot" where it does the rest. Thanks for yet another product that helps make life a little easier."

Pneumatic Swivel Casters, August 19, 2008
By Islandman from Whidbey Island, Washington

"The 6 inch pneumatic swivel casters were used to construct a three foot square wood dolly which I use to move large heavy items around our property. An example is moving the table saw from the shop across our gravel driveway and parking area, several hundred feet of lawn, to the back of the house where I'm building a deck. The move was easy, the wheels rolled smoothly across the gravel and lawn surfaces. The casters are well made and being galvanized will not rust in our damp weather conditions."

Built Strong!, August 12, 2008
By KanyonATV from Panguitch, UT

"I purchased six of these to make a flat cart approximately 6' X 4' to move equipment between 400 and 100 pounds around my lot by towing it with an OHV (can't afford a forklift yet). I have large gravel so I went with the inflatable casters hoping it would roll over the rock, which it does perfectly. Has a little trouble where the rock is deep but in order to keep the height to a minimum this was perfect.

The only difficulty I have is the valve stems are difficult to fill because of the limited room but there isn't much choice on the design of it.

Good for light weight applications, August 12, 2008
By whowutwut from Wappingers Falls, NY

"I bought 2 of these for the front wheels of a car dolly and another 2 non swivel for the rear. The shell was completely stripped inside and out (no subframe or any suspension components) so it did not weigh too much. The pneumatic wheels had alot of trouble rolling around the smooth garage floor. I had to switch to ridged casters. Casters are too soft to handle a lot of weight. Recommended for light weight applications."

Pneumatic is the way to go, these are a good buy., May 20, 2008
By Anonymous from Upper Peninsula - Michigan

"I didnt know what to expect as far as quality and size but when I opened the box I became pleased and relieved. These are pretty heavy duty casters with 3/8" mounting holes (slotted) and they are heavy. The tires are of budget type and are nice with about 1/8" raised tread pattern. They have a tube in them with a sharply bent valve stem to clear the wheel supports. All are holding air. There is a grease fitting on the caster for the double row upper ball bearings. I purchased two swivel, two non-swivel, and one spare wheel/tire to replace the 2" wide 4" high wheels/casters on a rollaway box with intermediate and top box stacked on. These make the box stand taller but only a few inches which is a plus for me. They roll and turn much easier and quieter than rigid wheels. My box rolls over uneven floors and cracks/holes in concrete 100% better. Stability of the box is better too. For the price you cant go wrong. Should last a long while."

Nice Casters, October 15, 2007
By jjproaudio from Indiana

"I bought these to mount on a pro audio amplifier rack. They work great, My amp rack weighs close to 275 pounds and four of the 6 inch casters work perfect. And it rolls very easy. For the price these are a bargain and I will be buying more for my second rack. Also northern tool has very fast shipping I think it was only 2 days to my door. Exellent purchase!"
