The most important thing is to make sure that the stem of the caster will FIT your chair. Click Here for help on measuring your stem correctly.

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.

Chair Caster Selection

We do not recommend using any wheel on loose or high-pile carpet, as it can hinder movement and cause premature wear to both the carpet and the caster. Chair casters with hard polyurethane wheels typically roll best and last longer on low-pile or commercial-grade carpet. For carpet over soft padding, be aware that the surface may compress under weight, affecting caster performance. We advise consulting with your carpet manufacturer for specific recommendations before using casters on their product. Our warranty covers only the construction and quality of our chair casters.

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.
