Gulu Office Chair
Admin October 08, 2026
Gulu office chairs generally refer to office chairs with wheels. The types, functions, and prices of these wheels vary depending on different needs. Below are specific solutions and explanations:

Wheel Types and Functions
Locking Wheels:
- Typically have a diameter of 60 millimeters, are covered with soft PU material, and come with a silent sleeve to effectively reduce friction noise with the floor, making them suitable for easily scratched materials like solid wood floors.
- They can be locked or moved by flipping a button: when locked, the chair remains stationary; when unlocked, it can be moved, making them suitable for scenarios where the chair needs to be temporarily fixed, such as writing or meetings.
Gravity Wheels:
- Rely on gravity to increase lateral resistance, requiring more force to move but producing less noise, making them suitable for environments where accidental chair sliding needs to be minimized and silence is required, such as open-plan offices.
Fixed Foot Pads:
- Completely replace wheels and directly contact the floor with rubber or plastic material, keeping the chair completely stationary, suitable for scenarios where the chair does not need to be moved for long periods, such as fixed workstations or display areas.
Price References
Price per Wheel:
- Ordinary 2-inch universal wheels (without brakes): wholesale price ranges from approximately ยฅ0.5 to ยฅ5.32, suitable for basic mobility needs.
- Wheels with brakes: wholesale price ranges from approximately ยฅ1.44 to ยฅ4.0, suitable for scenarios where the chair needs to be temporarily fixed.
- Fixed foot pads: wholesale price is approximately ยฅ1.71, suitable for long-term stationary needs.
Price of Entire Chair:
- The price range for office chairs with wheels is wide, from ยฅ100.0 to ยฅ2835.75, mainly influenced by materials (such as mesh, leather, metal frames) and functions (such as height adjustment, rotation, lumbar support).
- Basic models (such as plastic frames with ordinary wheels) are priced lower, while high-end models (such as ergonomic designs with silent gravity wheels) are priced higher.
Selection Suggestions
- Home Use: If the floor is solid wood or tile, prioritize soft PU-covered locking wheels or gravity wheels for a balance of mobility and floor protection; if the chair does not need to be moved, it can be directly replaced with fixed foot pads.
- Office Scenarios: For open-plan offices, silent gravity wheels are recommended to reduce noise interference; for fixed workstations, wheels with brakes or fixed foot pads can be chosen to enhance stability.
- Budget Control: If only replacing wheels, ordinary universal wheels or wheels with brakes offer good cost-effectiveness; if purchasing an entire chair, ergonomic chairs in the mid-range price bracket (ยฅ500-1500) can be selected based on functional needs to balance comfort and cost.
