What types of casters do flip-top training tables use and what's the difference?

Commercial flip-top training tables use several caster types. Standard fixed casters roll in all directions and are most common — they enable easy repositioning during setup. Locking casters have a brake lever that locks the wheel to prevent movement once the table is positioned — important in configurations where tables shouldn't shift during use. Directional (swivel) casters rotate to any angle; fixed casters only roll in one direction and are less maneuverable but can track straight more easily. Dual-wheel casters distribute weight and roll more smoothly than single-wheel casters. For training tables, the typical recommendation is locking casters on at least some wheels so tables stay put during use. Better tables include locking casters on all four wheels.
