Caster Socket for 7/16" Grip Ring and 1.495" ID Round Tube - RT1495RD

About This Caster Socket - RT1495RD

Use this socket to turn a 1.495-inch round tube leg into a tool-free mount for a grip-ring stem caster.

A caster socket is a sleeve that seats in the open end of a hollow tube leg and gives it a round bore sized to hold a caster stem, so a cart, rack, or fixture built from round tube can take a standard caster without welding a plate or tapping the tube. This one fits a 1.495-inch inside-diameter round tube, one of the larger round sizes in the range, and accepts a 7/16-inch grip-ring stem, the sprung-ring stem that pushes in and holds without a nut, so casters drop in and pull out by hand for service.

Ideal applications

• 1.495-inch ID round tube legs on carts, racks, and fixtures
• Tool-free 7/16 grip-ring mount in a larger round tube
• Round tube frames that need a caster without welding a plate

For a square tube of a similar inside dimension, the 1.402-inch square RT1400SQ takes the same 7/16 grip-ring stem.

Pairs with: four 7/16-inch grip-ring stem casters and a round-tube frame built to 1.495-inch ID.
