The rubber on Pelican case wheels always go bad eventually and my time finally came, so I sat down in Fusion 360 and whipped up this design.

Since I no longer had the full original wheels to measure outside diameter from I simply went for something that would fit and work.

They're designed to use the bearings from original wheels so you can swap them over to these.

If the bearings are a bit too snug, you can heat them with a lighter before pressing.

I found using a vise clamp pretty good for pressing the bearings into place.

So far the wheels seem to work fine, I can foresee no problems on smooth surfaces like tile and concrete. We'll see what happens if it gets used on asphalt or other rough surfaces.
I don't know if this design will fit other cases but I've included the Fusion 360 file and the PrusaSlicer .3mf for your convenience.

Should also work with 1510 and 1560 cases.
