What size drill bit is used to make the hole for the sockets?

Been a year, maybe 11/32, drill sample hole in scrap piece, see if insert presses in snug. Don’t oversized it. If you haven’t purchased yet recommend different brand, bearings fell out after 10 months of use.

What are the wheels made of? Rubber? If not rubber, then what exact material? Thank you.

These are not made of rubber. They seem to be made of a harder, better material. These casters are very similar & look like old casters from furniture made a few decades ago. They are well made, can handle a lot but if you don't sand out the small line that runs thru the center of them, they will eventually start to leave marks on your flooring. I would suggest you either use a higher grit sandpaper (220 or higher) to sand down the line and\or use these casters on top of a protective layer: maybe carpet or chair mat?

Would these work on a 300 pound couch?

Hi, each caster loads up to 110 pounds, if you installed 4 of them on your couch, they could load max 330 pounds.

Can wheel assembly be removed, leaving receiver in?

I'm not sure what you're calling the "receiver"? The metal piece that the wheel/ball clips into (bushing) should stay in when you remove the ball/wheel
