Description

Big Green Egg Caster Kit (4-inch) for Modular Nests, Nests and Wood Tables

The Big Green Egg 4-inch (10-centimeter) Caster Kit is a matte black set of two swivel wheels, one locking and one non-locking, designed for Big Green Egg EGG Nests, Modular Nest Systems, and Acacia Tables. The kit includes a wrench for easy assembly and disassembly of the wheels. The larger 4-inch diameter provides increased clearance over surface irregularities and transitions compared to the 2-inch Caster Kit, making it better suited for outdoor surfaces with deck board gaps, textured concrete, or mild uneven areas. The matte black finish integrates with the Big Green Egg product line design scheme.

4-Inch Diameter for Outdoor Surfaces

The 4-inch (10-centimeter) caster diameter provides better performance over outdoor surface irregularities than smaller casters. On wood decking with gaps between boards, the larger diameter rolls over the gaps rather than dropping into them and catching. On slightly uneven concrete or pavers, the larger diameter reduces the jarring effect of rolling over small surface height changes. For outdoor installations on surfaces that are not perfectly smooth and flat, the 4-inch Caster Kit provides a smoother and more controlled rolling experience than the 2-inch kit. The 4-inch diameter also provides slightly more ground clearance beneath the EGG table or nest, which can be beneficial for clearing debris that accumulates on outdoor surfaces.

One Locking, One Non-Locking Configuration

The 4-inch Caster Kit contains two casters: one locking and one non-locking. This is a per-pair kit; a complete four-caster installation requires two kits (four casters total, two locking and two non-locking). The two-way brake on the locking caster locks both the rolling motion and the rotation of the caster pivot, which prevents the EGG table or nest from moving in any direction when the brake is engaged. This dual-lock mechanism provides more positive hold during cooking than casters that only lock the rolling motion.

Solid Polyurethane Wheel

The wheel component of the 4-inch caster is made from solid polyurethane. Polyurethane wheels provide a good balance of rolling resistance and surface protection: they roll smoothly on hard outdoor surfaces without requiring maintenance, they do not leave black marks on light-colored patio surfaces as some rubber compounds do, and they provide some cushioning over minor surface irregularities. The solid construction eliminates the risk of deflation or puncture that affects pneumatic caster wheels.

Included Wrench

The 4-inch Caster Kit includes a wrench for assembly and disassembly of the wheels. This allows the casters to be installed in the EGG table or nest without requiring separate tools and makes disassembly straightforward when the EGG table or nest needs to be moved or stored without casters.

Specifications

Caster diameter: 4 inches (10 centimeters). Wheel material: solid polyurethane. Finish: matte black. Kit includes: 1 locking caster, 1 non-locking caster, and wrench. Full installation requires 2 kits. Compatible with Big Green Egg Modular Nest Systems, EGG Nests, and Acacia Tables. Two-way brake locks roll and rotation on locking caster.

Better Rolling on Challenging Surfaces

The 4-inch caster wheel diameter provides better rolling performance on rough or uneven outdoor surfaces compared to smaller casters. Stone pavers, brick patios, and weathered wood decking can create rolling resistance that makes smaller wheels impractical for heavy EGG setups. The larger 4-inch wheel rolls over these surfaces more smoothly, making repositioning a Large, XL, or 2XL EGG in a Modular Nest or compatible stand a straightforward one or two-person task rather than a struggle.

Designed for Modular Nests, Nests, and Wood Tables

This caster kit is compatible with a range of Big Green Egg support systems, making it a versatile mobility upgrade for many different configurations. Whether you have a classic nest, a Modular Nest setup, or a Big Green Egg wood table, the 4-inch casters can be installed to add rolling mobility to the system. Check compatibility for your specific nest or table model before purchasing to ensure correct fitment.

Locking for Cooking Stability

The locking function on the included casters is as important as the rolling function. Once your EGG is positioned for a cook, locking the casters prevents any movement during the session. With a heavy EGG at temperature, having a stable, non-moving platform is essential for safe operation. The lock engages and releases with a simple foot press, making it easy to transition between mobile and stationary modes quickly.
