Ball Caster 3PI N20
VAT inclusive; Computed calculations added locally.
Overview
Improve the stability and movement of compact robots with the Ball Caster 3PI N20. This small mechanical caster provides a smooth support point for mobile robotic platforms, helping balance the chassis while allowing the powered wheels to control the robot's movement.
Its compact design makes it particularly suitable for small robot chassis and N20 gear motor-based platforms. The caster can be mounted at the opposite end of the drive wheels to create a stable multi-point support system.
The ball-style contact allows the robot to change direction while maintaining smooth contact with the surface. This makes the Ball Caster useful for line-following robots, obstacle-avoidance robots, Arduino robotics projects, educational robots, and DIY mobile platforms.
For makers building compact wheeled robots, the 3PI N20 Ball Caster offers a simple and practical solution for chassis support and smooth movement.

Product Technical Information
Technical Details
Ball Caster 3PI N20
The Ball Caster 3PI N20 is a compact caster designed to provide mechanical support for small wheeled robots. It is commonly installed opposite the robot's drive wheels to create a stable support point while allowing the robot to turn and maneuver.
Compact Robot Support
A ball caster helps distribute the weight of a small robot chassis while reducing the need for an additional powered wheel. This makes it useful for two-wheel-drive robotic platforms where the drive motors provide propulsion and the caster provides front or rear support.
Suitable for N20-Based Robots
The compact design makes the Ball Caster suitable for robot platforms built around N20-style gear motors and similarly sized drive systems.
Smooth Direction Changes
The ball-style contact allows the caster to move with the robot as it changes direction. This helps reduce resistance compared with a fixed wheel and supports smooth movement on suitable flat surfaces.
Easy Integration
The caster can be mounted to a compatible robot chassis using appropriate screws or mounting hardware. It is particularly useful for small DIY robot chassis and custom-built mobile platforms.
Applications
The Ball Caster 3PI N20 can be used for:
- Line-following robots
- Obstacle-avoidance robots
- Arduino robotics
- N20 gear motor robots
- Two-wheel-drive robots
- Educational robotics
- Mini robot cars
- Autonomous mobile robots
- DIY robotic platforms
- STEM projects
Note: The caster is a mechanical support component and does not contain a motor or electronic control circuitry. Ensure that the mounting position, chassis height, and caster load capacity are suitable for your specific robot design.
