Hey dude,
Another dude on this forum got a set off eBay. Looking at them, they are screw in. I think he said they were M8 thread.

Thx for the reply. Right now all I can find out is they require M10 casters but I can't an official answer from Blackstar to confirm. Unfortunately, the online owner's manual doesnt reference that caster mounts even exist on the bottom of the HT 60.DrKarnivore wrote:Hey dude,

Finally managed to get some castors for the Stage 60. They're an M10 thread fitting and the ones I tracked down are made by Draper. They're a twin-wheel nylon design, with safe working load of 25kg each (so four are more than up to the amp's 31kg).
The Draper part no. is 65464, or alternatively 60140B. I bought mine from a company called Justoffbase - www.justoffbase.co.uk should get you there. Cost me less than £7 for the set, including postage (they arrived inside 36 hours). Not sure if they deal outside the uk, but probably worth a try if the castors aren't available locally.

I'm going for a set of these for my S1-45 combo: http://www.bearingboys.co.uk/Light_Duty ... tor-1013-p which will also need a set of 10mm bolts to fix them to the cabinet plates. From previous experience, brakes are an essential option!
Are you saying that you have to also buy 10mm bolts for these casters OR are do these have the bolts on them and they will just screw right in as is? I wish Blackstar would sell an official set of casters for this amp or at least recommend one that is not made for sofas.Captain Bb wrote:I'm going for a set of these for my S1-45 combo: http://www.bearingboys.co.uk/Light_Duty ... tor-1013-p which will also need a set of 10mm bolts to fix them to the cabinet plates.

Yes, the castors have a 10.2mm hole in the top, which is the clearance size to allow a 10mm bolt to slide through it, so you will need to buy a seperate bolt (and I daresay a flat and a spring washer) to attach it to the 10mm threaded hole in the plate on the bottom of the amp.
Furthermore, I've now removed one of these threaded plates from the bottom of the amp and can see the hole beneath it is blind (i.e doesn't go all the way through the base wood) so a bolt of the correct length will have to be used too.

Well, the castors finally arrived and are now fitted. They needed a 25mm long M10 bolt per caster to fit on the footplates.
These are very gig-worthy casters indeed with good brakes.

The only ones I can find for that part are the 40mm. Is this the right one?
