Expanding rubber adapter kits mount a stem caster in a hollow tube leg with no drilling or welding. Sizes for tube inside diameters from 3/4 to 1-7/8 in.
How the rubber expander locks into open tube legs: measuring inside diameter, selecting the adapter size, and seating the caster. Applies to every size on this page.
The kit is a rubber sleeve with metal washers on a stem. Tightening the stem shortens the sleeve and makes it bulge outward against the tube wall. Rubber grips round tube well and absorbs vibration, but it relies on friction, so it suits light and medium loads rather than heavy carts.
Work tables, prep tables, chairs, racks and display fixtures with open tube legs. For square tube, check that the kit is made for square or use a plate mount instead.
Casters with adapters fitted: casters for 1-1/2 in ID tube and expanding adapter casters.
Measure the inside diameter of the tube and pick the kit with that size. Sizes here run 3/4 to 1-7/8 in.
No. The rubber expands inside the tube and holds by friction.
Most fit a 1/2 x 2-9/16 in stem.
