Versatility and convenience combined! Our exclusive roller stand flips over from 2-3/8'' bearing roller to eight ball bearings for movement in any direction.
Switches from roller stand to ball stand in seconds. 2-3/8'' diameter x 14-3/4'' bearing roller has spring-loaded axle. The eight ball bearings are steel. The heavy-duty 2'' steel tubing plus the unique wedge-type post offer strength and stability up to 440 lbs. For added stability, there is a leveling pad that compensates for uneven floors. The height can be easily adjusted from 28-3/4'' up to 47'' with twin lock-knobs that secure the setting. Roller won’t drop during adjustment! Works with jointer, drill press, band saw, planer, table saw, and more. Legs fold flat for easy storage. Self-standing when closed.

I bought one of these to replace two cheaper stands a while back. I find them very sturdy and easy to level. I've since ordered another one and will recommend these to anyone. They are solid and well worth the price.

This is the best of the T stands I've used. The ball bearing attachment has a tendency to slip under heavy load and thus doesn't get used often. The leg levelers are a great idea but have no mechanism to prevent them from falling off and becoming lost. I solved this by running a piece of threaded rod through the entire length of each foot and capping each end with a fender washer /lock nut. It is disappointing that this still has not been addressed on the product as I pointed this out years ago. I am considering buying another one of these stands.

Purchased two stands for in/out feed use and couldn't be more pleased with the product. My existing stands never worked well and were very hard to use on my very uneven pole barn concrete floor. All my power tools are mobile which raises the working surface. These stands work with all my tools and are very easy to adjust and level. Heavy duty? Oh Yea! I am sure they will outlast me. Definitely worth the price.

The handle (on the 1/2" bolt) for tightening the upright was broken and made the stand unusable.
Editor's note: Our customer service team at 800-376-7856 will be able to arrange replacement for this for you Larry.

As a full time self employed woodworker I've virtually destroyed 3 lesser quality roller stands purchased from the big box stores in the past 6 months. I finally decided to spend the extra bucks and buy some quality stands. These Rockler stands are solid enough to stand up to professional use. I use them every day. They simply won't tip over, wobble, or slip. Highly recommended!

What to do? I had the need to joint and glue boards 103" long x 3/4" x 10". All I have is a Shopsmith 4" jointer with 28" of infeed and outfeed length. No problem. I set the Heavy Duty Roller stand about four feet out from the outfeed table and zeroed it level with a 50" aluminum straight edge. This roller stand is rock solid and gave me the necessary outfeed support. Glue-up was perfect.

This is a heavy-duty stand and should not be classed with some of the lighter weight roller stands on the market. The base is well designed and the rubber caps on the end of the floor tubes are eccentric so that you can rotate them independent of each other to adjust for any floor unevenness. This is a very nice design touch that makes the stand rock solid. The rollers can be extended much higher that my original light-weight stand (that I have fought with for years!) and as such works with a drill press and band saw too. Another well-thought out product. Thank you.
