Bob, Last one I did had double wheel (similar to Darnell) casters. The socket is a bit different from supply house stock but you can make standard ones work. Be sure and get cardboard shim washers for the socket when you order. Quite often the socket has been buried a bit in the hole in the frame. Usually causes a caster wheel blowout in the middle of the Hamilton class studio races on the music department raceways.

Could someone tell me if I need to order it from Baldwin, or is it a stock stem size that I could get from any supply house? Thanks, Bob Anderson Tucson, AZ
