Review on POWERTEC 17201 Double Swivel Caster by Richard Payne

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Large mounting flange, easiest to use with tip of toe

Building 5 custom platforms for all my floor standing power tools from 3/4" thick plywood, torn 3" wide strips, I needed good lockdown reels so when I was building my first pair I bought Harbor Freight and Menards lockdown reels.I didn't like the HF wheels and preferred the Menards version which doesn't just lock the wheels.The wheels are non-rolling but also anti-rotating. However, when I saw them online, what I liked best was the larger flange that engages and disengages the lock. So I ordered a kit and found it to be the best because the surface area of the flange is larger , making it easier to lock and unlock with the toe of your shoe.They are simply better designed and easier to clip in and out.What more could you want from a row e from videos. Look no further. it's impossible to win.

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something
