Chair Casters for Carpet – Grip Ring 

Chair Caster Selection

The most important thing is to make sure that the stem of the caster will FIT your chair. The stem type and size are critical. All of the casters on this page have 7/16″ Diameter Grip Ring Stems.

Casters on most chairs and furniture have 50mm wheels and work fine for most applications. If you require additional capacity or are going to roll on carpet, you may want to consider the 60mm size.

Features

img 50mm ( 1.97″ ) Wheel Diameter
img Capacity up to 60 lbs. per caster
img When used on carpet, normal carpet wear can be expected.
img Grip Ring Stem – 7/16″ x 7/8″
img 50mm – Mounted Height is 2 1/4″.

If you are in a chair many hours each day and your weight exceeds 200 lbs, we suggest you consider using casters with at least 3″ diameter wheels. Capacity is only one factor in determining the proper caster. We do NOT include mounting Hardware.

If your weight is between 350 lbs and 500 lbs, our Mr. Big Caster may be your best choice. It only comes with nylon wheels and will require a thick mat to protect wood floors. Nylon wheels are the best material when rolling directly on carpet but carpet wear can not be avoided. This is the ideal chair caster for the larger person or for those with chairs on thick carpet.

You should never select on the basis of load capacity alone. There is no industry standard for load capacity ratings and they may not include a factor for abuse. Our capacity ratings are below what the casters are capable of carrying because most applications have less than perfect conditions. Please refer to the information shown at the bottom of this page. If you have any doubt as to which wheel or caster is the BEST choice for your application contact us for a recommendation.
