Abstract
A wheel, by which a base is configured to be wheeled across a floor, includes a tread and a hub. The hub has an inner surface that surrounds an axis and defines a bore. The hub further has an outer surface surrounding the inner surface and a slot extending radially outward from the bore to the outer surface. A shaft is centered on the axis and coupled to the base. The shaft is configured to be received in the bore and has a groove. A clip is configured to be attached to the hub in an installed position in which the clip extends from within the groove outward through the slot to secure the hub to the shaft. The installed position is axially between the base and the tread.
