Difficult to raise and lift but rolls nicely
Using these on a 1,700lb Southbend 13 x 40 lathe. I had to use longer bolts because the provided threaded rods are very short. I can't think of any large machine that would have a small enough flange to be able to use the provided rods, so plan for longer bolts.Once I got the new bolts they installed easily into the pre-existing holes. I found adjusting the leveling foot was extremely difficult. I initially used a screw driver to push on the adjuster. It would be nice if it came with an adjustment wrench for easier adjusting. I ended up using a floor jack to lift each end of the machine to raise and lower the foot. The wheels roll easily and was able to move the machine over rough driveway and floor.

Exactly what you need for heavy shop equipment! - Worth the money!
I bought two sets of these casters. One for my 18" Nova drill press, and one for my Nova Galaxi Lathe. I had to make some minor modifications to the lathe base (pre-drilled holes are M10, I had to drill them out to M12 size), and I had to buy longer mounting bolts, but these are PERFECT! These casters support a ton of weight, are super easy to install, and super easy to level.Once I had the right mounting bolts, it took about a minute per caster to install them. I used a lock washer and nut on the underside of each to hold the bolts in place and screwed the remaining bolt length into the casters. This worked perfectly.My lathe weighs about 450 lbs and my drill press is about 350 lbs and both were super easy to move on the casters. Once in place, you simply dial in the height you want and get the tool level by hand using the easy to turn adjustment knobs on each caster. The sturdy feet on each caster hold your tool firmly in place on any surface (in my case a RaceDeck floor) and work beautifully as designed. I can move either tool around the shop with ease as needed for maintenance and cleaning and just as easily put them back.I would highly recommend these casters and will purchase them again in the future for additional tools as we add them to the shop. Thanks for a premium product that simply works!

Worth the money...
Are they cheap? .....NO!!!But these casters are built sturdy and I use them on all my heavy equipment in the shop.i never tested the 2400 lb rating, but I have them on an 800lb Bandsaw and a Quincy 5hp Rotary Compressor.The rubber pads that can be lowered are great for stabilizing heavy equipment, and they absorb vibration.I just purchased another set for an 1800lb Planer/Thicknesses. I especially like the fact that they can be purchased with a square mounting plate, or with a threaded stud.I've used both types and highly recommended them.

NOT at all as pictured
As several have mentioned before me, whats delivered is NOT AT ALL what is described and pictured, rather a much cheaper knock-off product. It's either a bad batch or the seller needs to update the photos and description due to changes in the product. The red adjustment wheel is crooked on all of the wheels in the set. It has very sharp edges and is difficult to turn by hand, I cannot imagine adjusting it if installed and under load. The metal edges in the window are very sharp again making hand adjustment not ideal to put it mildly. The side screws that are supposed to secure the wheel shaft seem to miss it entirely. Overall finish is a 3/5 at best on a good day but far from the "superior" quality promised by the seller. They "may" do the job but should not be sold as anything more than a generic product. These are the same budget wheels as the rest of the many offerings online. I will be asking for a refund as they are not as described and pictured and then some.

They work great.
In my application I needed to build four 1 3/4" X 1 3/4" spacers to go on top of the mounting surface so the wheel/pad area would be below the the bottom of my 950 lbs. milling machine. Now I can easily move the mill around when needed and quickly relevel it. I am using them inside a shop area and on a concrete floor. Works better than I expected. These are well made and offered a a great price. I would highly recommend.

They are very sturdy, compared to standard stud type casters.
I have used these several times on heavy machines, and they work great.

Works with the Blichman Top Tier Homebrew stand.
If you're looking to make your Blichmann Top Tier Brew system easier to move...these are the casters for you. Very good quality, much much easier to level than the feet included in the system. Handles all the weight of the stand and kettles. No more tipping it over on to those wheels. Wish I had purchased them sooner.

Excellent casters - I use them on multiple platforms.
I used six of these casters on a large storage unit that houses over 1,000 pounds of parts, drawers, etc. They installed easily and are exceptionally sturdy, so I used four more on the miter saw station I built and they roll and lock/unlock easily.
