ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A caster includes a U-shaped caster horn having a top web portion and two contiguous downwardly-extending leg portions to define a wheel accommodating space. A wheel is rotatably supported in the space such that the caster horn partially covers the wheel. The caster horn features a fouling-resistant bearing cup integrally formed thereon for receiving and retaining a bearing assembly, which secures one end of an structure-supporting stem. A swivel cap with a hole formed in the center thereof is placed over the cup while allowing an opposite end of the stem to protrude therethrough. A brake mechanism supported by the caster horn may be operated to inhibit or prevent rotation of the wheel.
