European Bolt Hole Caster Supplier Wanted

[reVoxAHB]

Hi all,

The guy who is building my brew stand, fabricates some kind of trailer mod as his main business, that utilises bolt hole casters like this:

He's sourcing casters in 250-500 lots, from a supplier here in Melbourne. He reckons he's paying too much and is looking for a supplier direct from Europe or China or?

Figured I'd do him the favour of tracking down a contact # or three.

Anybody here buying casters?? And/or can shoot us a contact?

Cheers,
reVox

Hey Revox

They're most definitely got to be cheaper somewhere. I notice at a lot of the smaller Asian tool/hardware $2 type places around here in the Nthn. burbs the castors are a heck of a lot cheaper (read half the price of) what they're trying to sell them for in Bunnings.

Not sure how much help you'd get but try a few of the Asian shops and ask them who their wholesale suppliers are. Good luck getting a straight answer.

Your mate might have some luck getting some of their supplier details as their market is probably WA based thus causing no loss of business to them.
Worth a call anyway.
