ABSTRACT:
A caster has a stationary hub with a bearing between the hub and a floor engaging wheel ring which allows the wheel ring to rotate relative to the hub. Torsional elastomeric elements mount the hub between spaced support arms radially inward of the bearing and are positioned eccentrically relative to the axis of rotation of the wheel ring so as to suspend the hub resiliently between the arms. In an alternate embodiment, the hub is cantilevered from a single support arm.
