Do these casters swivel? And will they work on carpeting?

Yes, they swivel on the tile...haven't tried them on carpet. I ordered them by the recommendation of an expert chair specialist. He replaced them with this type and I am completely satisfied compared to the first type of casters. I definitely recommend these casters.

Yes, they are quite heavy and should settle into thicker carpet nicely. If you are worried about divots in the carpet, I would suggest getting some small furniture sliders to put under the feet.

Probably not... they are super small and so unless your carpet was flat like office carpet then they probably won't roll very well. They would work better than nothing, but a larger wheel would roll better, I think, on standard carpet.

All four casters swivel. I have 80 lb. on them, and they manuever pretty easily. Carpet is a little tougher, but especially on smooth floors you should have no problem cornering.

Hi Savanah,I believe the casters are about an inch and a half in diameter....mine sits on carpet, so I am a bit unsure

They are "good" on any surface I've needed to roll them over. The thing that makes them different from other casters is that they truly do not make any mark on hardwood floors.

I wouldn't recommend it; the unit's it not set up for them. It wouldn't be impossible, though. You could search on Amazon for "casters set of 4", and pick some 2" ones that swivel. Mounting them with screws might be difficult, so consider a strong adhesive, like gorilla glue. Just avoid getting the glue in the center of the base plate, which would nullify the swivel feature.

No, they do not swivel, but they of good quality and I would order them again. I just have to remember which direction I need to use when hanging up my cloths . My experience with swivel hangers has not been good- the hanger falls apart prematurely.

they don't swivel but, since you asked, i just kicked at one and they are a little loose. but ours has been used everyday for the last 15 months and pushed across the tile floors most days as well and we've never had any problems.

No. They do not swivel. However I am very happy with how they installed and they have stayed secure as I remove and replace the kayak.

They may be okay on something like indoor/outdoor carpet. These sliders are fairly low profile. I just tried it on the only rug we have, a tight wool rug. It seemed too work okay.

One have one with casters, but works great. It sits a little higher and seems more comfortable. We have low nap commercial carpet and it works fine.

Yes. Not a lot. But they do swivel. They are very good peelers. We are very happy with them

The plates won't swivel by hand, but the bearings are supposed to be lubricated. If you're trying to swivel them by hand it won't work. But if you install them they will swivel. You could also try standing on in on the carpet and swiveling back and forth.

The swivels have adjustable friction via an allen head screw with washer through to a hex nut above with metal and fiber washers. You can adjust the friction to be arbitrarily high, so this should serve your purpose. Go for it.

Yes, I think they would work on top of carpet. If you were to jump on them or exercise, they may shift a bit because they won't be able to grip the floor, but if that's not an issue for you, then it should work. Our issue was just that they didn't stay locked together when used for exercising.

I have mine on a hard floor and they are very stable. Don't know about on a carpet.
