Office Chair Oblique Insert Wheels
Office chair oblique insert wheels usually refer to universal wheels installed with a rod or threaded rod. Their core information can be elaborated from three aspects: product type, installation and removal methods, and applicable scenarios.
I. Product Types and Prices
Oblique insert wheels mainly feature 2-inch diameter rubber dual wheels, with common types including threaded rod types and snap-ring types. Threaded rod types (e.g., M10 specification) are screwed into the chair legs via threads, suitable for scenarios requiring stable support such as executive chairs and swivel chairs, with a price range of ๏ฟฅ99.00~111.00 per set (5 wheels), and some models featuring brake functions. Snap-ring types rely on plastic snap rings for fixation, offering easier installation, with a unit price as low as ๏ฟฅ1.71 per wheel (e.g., the 2-inch snap-ring wheels from Foshan Junyuewei Hardware Products), with monthly sales exceeding 4,700 units, highlighting their cost-effectiveness. Additionally, Cixi Zhongyang Electric Appliance offers customizable wheels ranging from 1.4 to 2 inches, supporting color and material adjustments, with a unit price of ๏ฟฅ1.36~3.8 per wheel, meeting personalized needs.
II. Installation and Removal Methods
Removal: Rod-type wheels can be directly pulled out vertically; if resistance increases due to long-term use, a flat-head screwdriver can be used to pry open the snap ring, or pliers can be used to grip the rod body and gently tap it out with a hammer. Installation: Align the wheel's fork rod with the hole in the chair leg and press it in vertically, requiring no complex tools. Note that some designs (e.g., T37 hollow casters) require strict alignment of components (e.g., the tray arrow pointing towards the front of the seat cushion), but the installation logic for oblique insert wheels is similar, with the core being to ensure the rod body matches the hole size to avoid damage from forced insertion.
III. Applicable Scenarios and Characteristics
Oblique insert wheels are characterized by quiet operation and wear resistance as key features, with rubber material reducing movement noise, suitable for hard floors (e.g., tiles and wooden floors). The 2-inch diameter design balances load-bearing capacity and flexibility, offering strong versatility and covering most office chairs and computer chairs. Customization services (e.g., color and material adjustments) further expand their application scenarios, such as matching with industrial or Nordic-style furniture. When purchasing, it is recommended to prioritize models supporting both snap-ring and threaded designs, balancing ease of installation with usage stability.
For specific models or purchasing channels, you can contact merchants such as Shuyang Jingchong Department Store and Cixi Zhongyang Electric Appliance, and further screen based on chair leg hole diameter (e.g., M10 thread or 10mm rod) and load-bearing requirements (e.g., single-wheel load-bearing capacity โฅ50kg).
