4 AnswersChemistry1 year agoStrap on casters, Are they available?
I have seen linoleum installers use some kind of strap on casters.
The casters are made to fit a corner of what needs to be moved, but a ratcheting strap is used to hold them to the appliance. Then a lever is used to lower the casters (like jacking the appliance up).
Any idea where I can purchase these?
