Shepherd Hardware 9069, 3/4" Caster Furniture Sockets, White

I must have item when restoring a Cosco vintage kitchen cart

Been meaning to replace the lost wheels and realized I only have one socket left. Measured the pipes and hoped for the best with this. Almost didn't fit...until I used my hammer and the metal shaved the extra edges. Now there's room for more shoes below!

Initially I ordered 3/4 inch plastic sockets for my bed casters. They were too large so I had to reorder the 5/8 inch sockets. This was my problem. When the 5/8 inch sockets came I could not completely insert all the way into the caster. I could only get them about 3/4 of the way up. Since the sockets are plastic I took my drill and enlarged the hole just a little. This time I was able to insert them all the way in. Problem solved. So be aware that you may need to do a little customization even when you order the correct size.

These allowed me to make a plant stand mobile. Works as advertised, good stuff.

We had a roll about stool. The factory welded an end cap on each leg with a threaded center nut that received a threaded caster. The tack weld broke on one leg and the caster fell off. The legs were 1/2" diameter hollow tubes. I cut off 1/2" of each tube and thus the welded end cap as well. I inserted these plastic sockets into the tube end and then casters. Worked fine and saved $150 stool Casters were from the Shepherd as well, from my local big box hardware store. (Shepherd 2 in. Black Plastic and Steel Twin Wheel Swivel Stem Caster with 75 lb. Load Rating (2-Pack))

Fit perfect but wasn’t sure how many came with each order of 1. Only needed two and 1 package comes with 4. Now I have 8 when I only needed 2.

Came next day after I ordered it. Easy installation and seems better than the original ones.

Beware! Listed size is not accurate. See photos. Inner-diameter of “female” chair leg is 3/4”. Product states insert for 3/4”. It is too small - about 1/8” .

After reading some of the reviews, many wrote that they were too small in diameter, so I bought the size up also just in case. But these were actually a bit too snug...as it says in the description of the product. I used a hammer to get them all the way in (and a bit of the plastic pealed off). I was worried that it would cause the folding table I use as a desk to be wobbly. BUT once I put the casters in...but they were PERFECT!! No wobble whatsoever. This was a DIY project because I didn't want to buy a standing desk, and I needed to be able to move the desk around also for what I do. With this, and an extra liftable riser on the tabletop, this worked out perfectly.

Si les recomiendo comprar estos tapones para colocar llantas. Estuve haciendo unos experimentos lamentablemente fallidos tratando de usar hule para fijar las llantas que van roscadas aqui. Finalmente me convenci de comprar estos que SON para esto. Procuren comprar medida de 1" para los tubos Metro, aunque parece que son de 3/4" en tubo nominal comercial, la medida que les queda es de 1" en estos tapones. Si compran de menor medida no les quedaran.

Excellent

I ordered the 5/8" size fir my square frame tubing on the metal bed frame. I had to modify them with a drill bit through the sleeve to fit my risers for my bed frame but otherwise they were the solution to what I needed. Sizes of the plugs are their outermost diameter; the inner diameter of whatever they will be inserted in to.

Perfect fit
