Description: Refurbished set of four swivel casters- very heavy duty for their small size due to thick cast iron, high quality construction, and wide wheel. The Gem model by M. B. Schenck & Company of Meriden, CT, dated to the 1880s. New wood mounting screws included.• Will raise your piece 2 3/8 inches • 2 x 2 5/8 inch mounting platesNear pristine condition- excellent cosmetic and operational condition, but does show a small chipped area on the wheel hub (see highlighted area in close-up); I guarantee this will never be an issue unless being used for extremely heavy duty utilitarian use. Scoured with power wire brushes to remove all rust, hand washed, moving parts lubricated. Ready for installation.Interestingly, Mr. Schenck was a supporter of presidential candidate Lincoln. He served for the duration of the Civil War, and voted for Lincoln a second time by sending his ballot home from the war. He started his caster company shortly after returning home.
