ANTIQUE INDUSTRIAL CASTERS, RUBBER TREAD

$389.00

Unused, new old stock from the late 1800s!!! Incredibly rare set of 4 heavy duty swivel casters of thick cast iron with hard black rubber tread to be kind to flooring. By G.P. Clark Company of Windsor Locks, CT- the first to develop a rubber-wheeled caster.

• Will raise your piece 4 1/4 inches
• 3 1/4 inch diameter, 1 3/8 inch wide wheels
• 3 1/4 x 4 1/4 inch mounting plates

Great operational, structural and cosmetic condition. Artisanal refurbishing: scoured with power wire brushes to remove thick rust, soaked in degreaser and hand scrubbed to remove dirt and factory grime, ensuring all parts move as they should, hand applied worn black paint with overspray effect…all for optimum performance and creating a luscious, clean, aged effect. Moving parts lubricated. Ready for installation.

It would be several decades later that rubber tread casters would become commonplace, by which time, caster design was rather benign, so if you’re looking for dynamic antique industrial style with rubber tread to be kind to flooring, these will be the only set you will find. I find such a set once every several years.
