Superior Components Steel Caster Socket Advantages
Our standard 7/16” OD steel caster sockets feature a steel friction ring stem to form a secure connection between the steel caster socket and the caster. These caster sockets consist of a zinc-plated steel platform for improved corrosion resistance, resistance to wear and longevity in outdoor or challenging environments. 7/16” OD steel caster sockets also feature two heat-treated spring steel retaining clips for improved durability in heavy duty equipment and applications. Our steel caster sockets are designed to work seamlessly with different caster sizes, stem types, and mounting configurations.
Any part with two heat-treated retaining clips should be able to be used as a caster socket.
