The Nylon Swivel Caster Wheel is a white nylon wheel with 25mm diameter, 14mm thickness, and a 38×32mm fixing plate with 4 mounting holes for bolt-on chassis attachment, designed as a freely swiveling support wheel for robot chassis, trolley, and small vehicle builds. This nylon caster wheels mounting differs from all bore-based wheels — rather than pressing onto a motor shaft, the fixing plate bolts directly to the chassis surface via 4 holes, and the wheel hangs below on a swivel mechanism that rotates 360° around the vertical plate axis.
The nylon swivel wheel’s free-swivel mechanism provides passive directional alignment — unlike fixed non-swiveling support wheels, this caster automatically orients itself in the direction of chassis travel without any steering motor, making it ideal as the unpowered stability point in the 4WD plus castor chassis and 2WD robot platforms where driven wheels handle propulsion and direction while this nylon rotating wheel for chassis simply follows. These nylon wheels for trolley and light robot chassis handle smooth flat surface loads at low speed.
the 25mm diameter caster wheel provides less ground clearance than the 45mm or 65mm driven wheels — builders must ensure the caster wheel and drive wheels sit at matching chassis heights to keep the platform level. Available from StemVolt, offering quality robotics parts at competitive prices.
