Classic Wooden Toy Wheels in Diameters from 3/4" to 3"

Classic wheels are the general-purpose round wheel for wooden toy builds, classroom STEM projects, and replacement parts, with a rounded rim and no tread or hub detail. Thickness runs from 1/4" to 3/4" and center holes from 1/8" to 3/8", so wheel size and axle can both be matched to the build. For a tire-style rim, see Treaded Wheels.

Common Questions

What hole size do classic wheels have?

Classic wheels from 1" to 1-3/4" have a 1/4" center hole, and wheels from 2-1/4" to 3" have a 3/8" hole. The 2" wheels come with either hole size. Mini wheels from 3/4" to 1" have a 3/16" hole, and the 7/8" x 1/4" wheel has a 1/8" hole. The Wheel and Axle Peg Compatibility chart in the Help Center lists the pegs and dowels that match each wheel.

Do classic wheels come in bulk packs?

Yes. Classic wheels are sold in packs from small project quantities to bulk orders, and pack sizes vary by wheel size. For example, the 1-1/2" classic wheel is available in packs of 20, 100, 500, and 2,000. Pack options are listed on each product page

Use the Wheel and Axle Peg Compatibility chart to pair axles with your wheels, browse the Craftparts blog for project ideas, or contact us about bulk ordering.
