These brass spinet piano wheels are specially designed for the unique leg style of spinet pianos—compact uprights that require smaller casters for proper fit and balance.
Replacement spinet piano wheels made of solid brass. These wheels are typically for the front two legs of your spinet or console piano--it's possible the wheels at the back of the spinet are larger or even dual wheels. Sold in a set of 2 of 4 wheels, the brown plastic sockets are included for installation.
- 1.25" Diameter Wheels
- 11/16" Wheel Face Width
- Steam measures 1.75"
- Bottom of the wheel to the top of the frame (not including the stem) is 1-9/16"
- Plastic Sockets height is 1-7/8"
These brass piano casters are made specifically for spinet pianos, which feature smaller, free-standing front legs. Unlike standard upright wheels, which use thick stems and large square-base installation brackets, these casters have slimmer brackets and stems that fit securely into narrow leg cavities without causing damage (if the legs are narrow enough at the base, won't be able to drill a hole wide enough in the front legs to use upright piano wheels--even if you can drill the hole, the surrounding wood will be so thin, there will be risk of cracking the wood).
Ideal for restoring mobility or replacing old casters, these wheels offer a smooth roll and a classic brass finish that complements traditional piano designs.

Rubber piano wheels are ideal for hardwood floors. They provide smooth movement and minimize the risk of scratches or dents. With larger, heavier pianos, brass wheels, while durable, can damage some wood floors unless used with protective caster cups.

Will these piano casters fit my piano?
Every piano is a little different, and unfortunately, there's no universal database that matches caster sizes to specific piano models. However, we provide detailed specifications for each product — including stem diameter, stem length, and wheel size — so you can measure your piano’s existing mounting holes and compare.
If your piano’s leg socket is slightly smaller than the stem, you may need to carefully widen the hole to fit. In most cases, installation is straightforward.
How to choose the right piano casters
How to choose the right piano casters
Choosing the right piano casters depends on your piano type, flooring, and how often you move the instrument. Here are five key factors to consider:
- Piano Type – Upright pianos use 4 casters, while grand pianos use 3.
- Floor Type – Rubber casters are best for hardwood and tile. Brass wheels should be paired with caster cups to prevent floor damage.
- Weight Capacity – Match the wheels to your piano’s weight. Most range from 120 to 300 lbs per wheel.
- Mobility Needs – If you move your piano often or over longer distances, double rubber wheels with ball-bearings provide smoother, safer transport.
- Usage Frequency – For schools, churches, or stage pianos that get repositioned often, choose heavy-duty rubber wheels designed for frequent movement.

Should I get rubber or brass piano casters?
It depends on your floor type and how often you move your piano. Rubber casters are the better choice for hardwood, tile, or laminate flooring — they offer smoother, easier movement while protecting against scratches and dents. Brass casters are more traditional and visually elegant, and are the ultimate aesthetic accessory for a piano.
For most homes, churches and schools, rubber wheels are the safer, more floor-friendly option. If you want the classic brass look, consider pairing them with caster cups to protect your floor.
Can piano wheels be used on carpet or tile?
Can piano wheels be used on carpet or tile?
Yes, both rubber and brass piano wheels work on carpet or tile. Rubber wheels offer smoother movement and better grip on tile, while brass wheels roll well on carpet but may leave indentations without proper weight distribution
