Review on πŸ”§ High-Quality Steelex D4176 3” Cast Iron Fixed Caster for SHOP FOX D2058A Mobile Bases by Gary Cole

Revainrating 5 out of 5

They roll very easily on concrete.

Bought to replace broken wheels in the Fox Mobile Base store. This Shop Fox mobile base sits under an 18-inch jet band saw that weighs about 360 pounds. The original plastic rollers fell apart. I didn't want to buy plastic casters anymore and found these cast iron casters. What a difference when pushing the machine Iron wheels roll very easily, usually a push with one hand sets the bandsaw in motion. I no longer have to fight with two hands. Highly recommended. On the Grizzly and Shop Fox Heavy Duty Base you need two fixed Casters and two caster wheels are the exact size of the original casters, otherwise the holes under the studs will not match. These cast iron wheels will likely last forever if not abused.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • There are nuances
