The term combines 'caster' (or 'castor'), originating in the late 16th century from the verb 'cast' in the sense of 'to turn or swivel', and 'wheel', derived from Old English 'hwēol' of Germanic origin. Over time, 'caster wheel' became the standard designation for a swiveling wheel assembly designed to be attached to the bottom of a larger object to enable easy mobility.
