Office Chair Accessories - Casters

Admin October 09, 2026

The casters in office chair accessories, also known as wheels, are key components that support chair movement and enable flexible steering. Common types include fixed casters and swivel casters, with prices varying based on material, function, sales volume, and other factors.

In terms of materials, common options include PVC and PU. For example, the reinforced solid-core fixed casters for swivel chairs are made of PVC, which offers certain wear resistance and strength, meeting the mobility needs of chairs in daily office settings. These are relatively inexpensive, priced at ยฅ1.71, with monthly sales of 490 units, suitable for users who are cost-sensitive and have low functional requirements for the wheels. On the other hand, the 2-inch transparent PU casters for cross-border trade swivel office chairs are made of PU, which generally offers better elasticity and wear resistance, with a smooth surface that produces less noise during movement. The transparent design adds aesthetic appeal, priced at ยฅ5.32, with monthly sales of 4,101 units, making them a popular choice.

In terms of function, fixed casters can only move in one direction, suitable for scenarios where frequent directional changes are not required. Swivel casters, however, allow for 360-degree flexible steering, facilitating movement in all directions and are commonly used in office chairs. For example, the 2-inch swivel caster set with bearings for universal swivel chairs features a bearing design that reduces friction during rotation, ensuring smoother movement, while the plastic frame structure ensures wheel stability. Priced at ยฅ20.0, with monthly sales of 3 units, although sales are relatively low, they are suitable for users with high requirements for wheel performance.

Additionally, there are universal-type swivel chair casters, such as the universal swivel casters for office chairs, computer chairs, silent casters, sliders, rollers, and chair accessories, which emphasize silent operation. They effectively reduce noise during movement, creating a quiet office environment, priced at ยฅ5.0, with monthly sales of 874 units, favored by many users.
