Casters were originally made "for bots with two wheels or needing other added support", However, not many bots use them for their original purpose as bots can move without them. They are instead used due to being invincible, because they are attached directly to the baseplate. Because of this, they are the best Stock external armor, as used on successful bots like Bounty Hunter and PitA 8.

There are 10, 15, 20 and 25 cm high versions which all unrealistically weigh 6 kg. 10 cm ones are the most commonly used on popups and the bottom of HS, while 25cm are used on the fronts of Hammers and HS. However, due to small size, using a lot of them will cause the weight allowance to be used up quite quickly.
