Slipstick CB681 2 Inch Floor Protector Rubber Caster Wheels

Description

Product Overview

The Slipstick CB681 2‑inch rubber caster wheels are engineered to combine durability, quiet operation, and floor protection in a single low‑profile package. Constructed from a specially formulated synthetic rubber compound, each wheel delivers a smooth, silent glide across hardwood, laminate, tile, slate, and other hard‑surface flooring. The 2‑inch wheel width and 66 lb load capacity per caster make these units suitable for a wide range of medium‑weight applications, from office furniture to industrial equipment. The design incorporates a full 360° swivel mechanism, allowing effortless maneuverability in tight spaces. Each set includes four casters, four 5/16″ diameter stems with matching 3/8″ grip sleeves, and four 1½” × 1½” swivel top plates, providing two distinct mounting options to accommodate a variety of equipment configurations.

Usage

These versatile casters excel in environments where floor integrity is paramount. Use them on office desks, conference tables, filing cabinets, and laboratory benches to prevent scratches and dents while enabling easy repositioning. In industrial settings, the rubber tread offers excellent traction on concrete or metal platforms, reducing the risk of slippage during material handling. The dual‑mounting system allows quick conversion between stem and top‑plate installations, making the CB681 ideal for retrofitting existing furniture or outfitting new equipment. Whether you are outfitting a home workshop, a retail display, or a manufacturing line, the casters provide reliable performance on multi‑surface floors, including polished concrete, vinyl, and carpeted areas when used with appropriate adapters.

FAQ

Can these casters be used on carpeted floors?

Yes, the rubber tread provides sufficient traction on low‑pile carpet. For high‑pile carpet, consider using a carpet‑friendly adapter or a larger diameter stem to ensure stable movement.

What is the difference between the stem and top‑plate mounting options?

The stem option uses a 5/16″ diameter stem with a 3/8″ grip sleeve, ideal for equipment that already has a compatible stem hole. The top‑plate option features a 1½” × 1½” swivel plate that bolts directly to a flat surface, offering a quick‑install solution for furniture without pre‑drilled holes.

How do I replace a caster if it becomes worn?

Simply remove the mounting screws (or stem) and swap the worn caster with a new CB681 unit. Because the set includes all necessary hardware, replacement is straightforward and requires only basic tools.

Are these casters suitable for outdoor use?

While the rubber compound performs well on indoor hard surfaces, it is not designed for prolonged exposure to UV light, extreme temperatures, or abrasive outdoor conditions. For outdoor applications, consider a caster specifically rated for exterior use.

What does the warranty cover?

The 5‑year warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship, including premature wear or failure under normal use. It does not cover damage caused by improper installation, misuse, or modifications to the caster.
