Abstract
A wheel construction having a wheel with an axially extending hold therethrough and having a first diameter. A preassembled bearing housing having a second diameter less than the first diameter is located inside the hole of the wheel. The axis of the bearing housing is concentric with the outside diameter of the wheel. The difference between the first and second diameters defines a spacing therebetween. A moldable synthetic resin material fills the aforesaid spacing and effects a securement of the bearing housing to the wheel.
