My concern was whether your floor will bear the weight under the casters.

Fortunately, McMaster-Carr has anticipated this problem.

Go to http://www.mcmaster.com 

Us the "find products" to find casters.

Now choose your floor material.  Concrete?

Then choose the weight load per caster.

Then choose braking casters, if that's what you want.

Voila', it comes up with the caster for the job.  $17 each for 450# capacity steel swivel casters with brakes.

Ok I just picked up a wielding table cheep. But I need to put it on casters
the weight is about 1000# will 4 casters that are rated to 450 hold it up or
do I need to find something rated  at 1000# ?
Thanks
