Caster

A. Vertical line B.Caster




The caster angle (B) is the angle between vertical line (A) and a line which goes through the center of the lower ball joint and upper bearing (in other words a line through the spring strut) Caster encourages the wheel to travel straight forward and so makes steering easier. In addition the greater the caster angle the greater the self-centering effect.

Note! Caster angle cannot be adjusted.
