Go to mcmaster.com and search for "ball transfers"

Teetorbilt you are the man.

Did you just google that?

I spent like a good 5-10 minutes googling finding nothing.

Looks like I got excited too quickly (the website got me going).

It doesn't look like "Spherical Wheels" sell in the USA. And I emailed them asking if there is a dealer that sells online.

Turns out its mcmaster.com has what I needed (thanks dustball).

But the ones I like are a little more than I wanted to spend (6.60 I was looking at about 3-4 bucks since I'm getting 8 wheels). But all the other sites only sell in bulk.


Also whats the big difference between steel balls, and nylon balls?

Teetorbilt

I'm also on/have a lot of sites for engineers, maybe took me a minute.

Steel balls will support more weight, last longer but are more likely to score/indent floors. Nylon's are just the opposite.

So carpet, it wouldn't matter the type of wheel.

Steel will rust if it gets wet. You never did say what you were doing.
