Office Chair Caster Wheels

There are various types of caster wheels for office chairs, and their prices vary depending on the material, function, size, and applicable scenarios. Here are some common types and their characteristics:

1. Basic Functional Wheels

• Reinforced Solid Fixed Casters: Priced at approximately ¥1.71, these casters are made of solid material, have a stable structure, and are suitable for scenarios where a fixed direction is required, such as fixed use in front of an office desk, but they have relatively low flexibility.
• 2-inch PU Transparent Swivel Casters: Priced at approximately ¥5.32, these casters are made of soft PU material, have a transparent and aesthetically pleasing design, and can rotate flexibly in all directions. They are suitable for wooden or tiled floors to reduce scratches.
• 2-inch Shock-Absorbing Swivel Casters: Priced at approximately ¥0.67, these casters have a built-in shock-absorbing structure, providing good cushioning during movement. They are suitable for uneven floors or scenarios that require frequent movement.

2. Special Functional Wheels

• Brake-Locking Casters: Usually with a diameter of 60 millimeters, these casters are wrapped with soft PU on the outer layer and can be manually locked to prevent sliding. They are suitable for protecting solid wood floors or scenarios where the chair needs to be fixed, such as beside a conference table.
• Gravity Wheels: When moving, these wheels increase the left-right resistance through their internal structure, reducing the sliding speed and minimizing noise. They are suitable for places that require a quiet environment, such as libraries or home offices.
• Fixed Foot Pads: These are non-wheeled designs that directly replace the wheels to fix the chair. They are suitable for scenarios where no movement is required, such as long-term use in front of a computer desk.

3. High-End or Set Wheels

• Insert-Rod Swivel Caster Set: Priced at approximately ¥20.0, this set includes 2-inch wheels with bearings, providing smoother rotation and a longer lifespan. It is suitable for high-end office chairs or heavy-duty equipment that requires frequent movement.
• 3-inch Transparent Swivel Twin Wheels: Priced at approximately ¥8.5, these twin-wheel designs disperse pressure and are suitable for soft floors such as carpets. The transparent PU material combines aesthetics with practicality.

Purchase Recommendations

• Floor Material: For wooden or tiled floors, it is recommended to choose soft PU wheels to reduce scratches; for carpets, choose large-sized or twin-wheel designs to enhance passability.
• Usage Scenarios: For fixed office work, choose brake-locking wheels or fixed foot pads; for frequent movement, choose shock-absorbing or gravity wheels to reduce noise.
• Budget Range: Basic models can be as low as ¥0.67, while high-end sets can reach ¥20.0. You can balance functionality and cost according to your needs.

Different types of wheels have their own advantages in terms of material, size, and function. When purchasing, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the actual usage scenarios and floor conditions.
