Hey guys i am in the process of building a mobile kitchen island cart and was wondering if you have any suggestions on the types of casters used. I desire to have locking ones that would readily roll on the linoleum floor in the kitchen without leaving indentations. Well of course i understand that the linoleum will indent to some degree anyway.

I was just wondering if you all were familiar with a select type of wheel design/composition/etc; that is designed for this type of application and was on the market?

This mobile cart will cash in at a rather hefty weight somewhere around 80-90 lbs.

Rockler has some attractive ones. Go to their website and type in casters. They have quite a few styles. In your application, select a wide tire to spread the weight. Good hunting.

I used stem mounts on this one. Castors came from a Rockler sale, I believe.
