Tamiya Low-Profile Ball Casters: Functionality and Crafting Flexibility

The Tamiya Low-Profile Ball Casters offer a practical solution for hobbyists looking to enhance their projects with smooth mobility and a low center of gravity. These casters are particularly beneficial for small remote-controlled creations, where compact design is crucial due to the advancements in microcomputers and receivers.

Design and Compatibility

Featuring a lower profile than the previous Tamiya 70144 model, these ball casters can effectively support your creative endeavors. Their design includes four hooks that securely hold a 13/32 inch (approximately 10.3mm) gray steel ball, allowing for smooth movement across surfaces. The low-friction POM plastic parts ensure minimal resistance, enhancing the caster's performance.

Ease of Use and Assembly

The casters can be easily attached to a universal plate using a single screw or double-sided tape, providing versatile mounting options. Included in the package are 5mm spacers and L-shaped bracket parts, which facilitate varied applications. Additionally, the kit comes with all necessary hardware, including screws and nuts, ensuring straightforward assembly.
