Truly hope I hear from you. Have two very similar wheels on a standing ice chest. The chest has two wheels that don't lock. Two wheels that have a l lateral locking handle. Had very strong winds yesterday. One of the loockin wheels no longer locks. Is there a simple fix?

I hate finding casters after i find out what i need. Seems like no box retailer or amazon has a method to organize the search of casters with stem size as a method of search.

Is there a way to seperate stem from the wheel? I bought new set of wheels and there is 1mm difference in stems so I thought I would replace them with the original stems that I will take off from my chair. Should I use wd40 and pull?

This method was not very helpful in my case. I need to replace the caster socket on an antique oak office chair. My caster stems are 1-1/2" long and involve a considerable taper, from 5/16" at the ball end to 3/8" about 1/4" before the shoulder, and, using a Dewalt drill gauge similar to the tool in the video, the only opening which slides all the way to the shoulder, with some slop in the fit, is the 25/64" hole. Well, what size caster do I neet? I have now wasted money by following the advice in this video, purchasing 5/16" casters which are far too small. In the video you measure the caster stem pretty casually, at different distances from the shoulder, and that is not sufficient guidance. If you could, in order for this to be more useful, could you please discuss the issue of taper along the caster stem? I realize that, given the advanced age of the video, you may not respond, but I hope that others seeking information will notice this post and visit other resources before wasting money. Peace out.

I've been fighting for my life on this office chair that has a steel base where the pins don't want to budget out of the sockets. I've finally been able to get 4 of them out after letting some boeshield penetrating oil get in there and sit for a while. The very last one the pin seems to have softer steel and the pliers are just marring it badly and I can't for the life of me get it out. I want to thank you guys for getting me this far but pray for me to get this 5th one out.
@TamLe-mp6wf Жыл бұрын
aaaaaand it finally came out. had to set the pliers to the smallest setting and get the most leverage possible on the clamping force. If you guys ever encounter a Steelcase Leap Worklounge let me know. Those things were stuck in there unbelievably.

@esiracastillo Жыл бұрын
Absolute beginner here. This video was perfect. Only thing he forgot to mention is that if you have a 5/16 caster wheel in diameter, the Tnut size has to be 5/16 as well. It may seem like common sense but just in case someone gets overwhelmed when they get to the Tnut section at the hardware store.

Got the caster wheel off but the stem was still in. Got some vice grips and still can't budge it. Bought 2 used office chairs and can't get even one caster wheel off. Wonder if someone glued these stems in or something.

@rumeyjiffrey54852 жыл бұрын
The only thing holding the caster to the leg (vertically) is the four small metal knife cut-outs on the T-nut. T-nuts are supposed to be used on the other side of the workpiece so that the bolt tightens the nut against the wood and motion parallel to the bolt axis is not possible. In this instance, if you hold the wheel and pull the chair up, you've a good chance of dislodging the wheel. I'd use epoxy at least to stick bolt / nut on but that is a "duct-tape" solution.

How would you do it? Interested in different ways of doing things. Thanks
@rumeyjiffrey5485 Жыл бұрын
I’d use a proper socket that is meant for casters and fit it in so it’s tighter vertically. The other solution, suitable for a workshop environment is to have a bracket that fits over the tip of the legs.
