Caster Socket for 7/16" Grip Ring and 1.402" ID Square Tube - RT1400SQ

About This Caster Socket - RT1400SQ

Use this socket to turn a 1.402-inch square 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 square tube can take a standard caster without welding a plate or tapping the tube. This one fits a 1.402-inch inside-diameter square tube 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

• 1.402-inch ID square tube legs on carts, racks, and fixtures
• Tool-free 7/16 grip-ring mount in a 1.402-inch square tube
• Square tube frames that need a caster without tapping the tube

For a round tube of a similar inside dimension, the 1.495-inch round RT1495RD takes the same 7/16 grip-ring stem.

Pairs with: four 7/16-inch grip-ring stem casters and a square-tube frame built to 1.402-inch ID.
