Tamiya 70246 low-profile casters for precise, low-CG support

The Tamiya Low-Profile Ball Casters provide a neat rolling solution for craftsmen and RC modellers who need smooth movement without raising the centre of gravity. They suit small remote-controlled platforms and compact mechanical builds where space is limited.

Form factor and ball retention

This model sits lower than the earlier Tamiya 70144, allowing a sleeker fit on slim chassis. It uses four hooks to hold a 13/32 inch (around 10.3mm) grey steel ball firmly, delivering dependable roll. Low-friction POM components reduce drag for steady motion.

Mounting flexibility and included parts

The casters attach to a universal plate with a single screw or can be positioned with double-sided tape for non-permanent mounting. The set includes 5mm spacers, L-shaped bracket elements and the necessary screws and nuts to complete assembly without additional parts.

They are well suited to small RC models, jig fixtures and display builds where a low mounting profile and smooth support are required.
Keep the balls and POM surfaces clean from grit and apply light lubricant sparingly if rolling becomes stiff. Inspect the retaining hooks for wear periodically.
Yes. The included spacers and L-brackets make retrofit straightforward on many plates, though you should verify hole positions and clearance before final installation.
