VEVOR 4PCS Machinery Skate Dolly, 26455LBS/12T Industrial Machinery Mover, Heavy Duty Carbon Steel Machinery Moving Skate & 4 Carbon Steel Wheels and 360° Rotation Non-Slip Cap for Warehouse, Factory

The VEVOR 4PCS Machinery Skate Dolly set is a robust solution for moving heavy industrial equipment, I used them to move loads up to 12,000 pounds with ease. While they offer smooth rolling and good weight distribution, some modifications might be necessary for optimal performance in certain scenarios. **Pros:** - **Heavy Duty Capacity:** These skates can handle extremely heavy loads, making them ideal for industrial environments where moving large machinery is a necessity. - **Smooth Movement:** The skates roll smoothly on warehouse floors, which reduces the physical effort required for moving heavy items. - **Sturdy Construction:** The build quality appears to be high, with materials that can withstand the rigors of industrial use. **Cons:** - **Stability Issues:** The skates have a tendency to shift out from under the equipment, which could pose a risk of the load tipping over. This issue was addressed by adding a center stud. - **Fitment:** The design might not fit all types of machinery bases universally. Customizing with a saddle was necessary for a better fit. - **Steering:** Maneuverability can be challenging without additional modifications like connecting the rear skates with a pipe for easier control. **Additional Modifications:** - **Center Stud:** To prevent the skates from shifting, installing a stud in the center was an effective solution. - **Saddle Fabrication:** Creating a saddle for a more universal fit was necessary for securing various types of equipment bases. - **Steering Aid:** Connecting the rear skates with a pipe significantly improved the ability to steer the equipment, making it easier to navigate. The VEVOR 4PCS Machinery Skate Dolly set is a must-have for anyone in the business of moving heavy machinery. While it requires some modifications to enhance stability and fitment, these tweaks are relatively simple for someone with basic fabrication skills. The skates' ability to handle substantial weight with smooth mobility makes them an invaluable asset in any industrial setting. If you're looking for a reliable tool to assist with heavy-duty moving tasks, these skates are definitely worth considering, just be prepared for a bit of customization to get them working perfectly for your specific needs.

The performance of these were unbelievable, the machine we used them on to unload and move to its place was a million dollars and they held up remarkably well. We needed something with a minimum of 1/4 to 1/2 inches and they were perfect.

I don’t write product reviews unless a product surpasses my expectations beyond a 5 star rating. I have used machine Dollie’s in the past from expensive “name brand” vendors with plenty of success. I didn’t have access to those and was under a time crunch to get a loaded enclosed semi trailer moved around inside a warehouse building, with limited space and access for equipment to assist. The trailer weighs approximately 35,000 lbs and hasn’t moved in over 30 years since it was first moved into the building and positioned against a wall using fork lifts. I used these 4 Dollie’s, one under each outside duel of the trailer with a 2x12 spanning the tires and the dollie under the 2x12. Once on the Dollie’s and the landing gear raised and supported on a center stand, I was able to push the rear of the trailer across the floor by hand. No equipment, no come alongs, just pushing against the side of the trailer and it rolled with ease. With 2 more Dollie’s under the landing gear a few days later, myself and 3 others were able to push the entire semi trailer around the warehouse and position it in front of a door so a semi could hook to it and pull it out. I was very skeptical when that’s arrived in the box and on my doorstep for under $200. I am beyond impressed!

These skates saved me a lot of effort and time when I moved a 5000 lb machine into my garage. My crane won't go through the door so I bought these to set the machine on, then pushed it in. It still took effort to move it and turn corners, but it would have been very difficult without these. I was able to turn each one so I could rotate and set the machine in the right place. Much better than using pipes to roll the machine on. Saved me a lot of trouble and hassle as I did this by myself. I'm glad I finally bought a set for the heavy moves.

Strong and well made for ease of use. Does not slip and smooth to use on hard surfaces. Weight indicates it is solid made. Well constructed.
