Office Chair Replacement Parts

Admin October 09, 2026

Common replacement parts for office chairs include five-star bases/five-claw bases, trays/chassis, gas cylinders/gas springs, chair feet/bases, and other accessories, with prices varying based on material and functionality.

The five-star base/five-claw base is a crucial component supporting the office chair, commonly made of ordinary metal and aluminum alloy. The price for a detachable five-star base is approximately ยฅ55.0, suitable for scenarios with a limited budget and low weight-bearing requirements; an aluminum alloy five-star base offers better quality, priced at around ยฅ147.25, ideal for long-term use or users with high stability demands.

The tray/chassis connects the seat surface to the gas cylinder, directly affecting the seat's adjustment functions. A die-cast aluminum alloy tray costs about ยฅ38.0, meeting basic lifting needs; a multifunctional chassis, priced at around ยฅ92.0, supports rotation, lifting, and reclining adjustments, suitable for users requiring multi-angle office work.

The gas cylinder/gas spring is the core component controlling seat lifting, with a focus on explosion-proof performance. Ordinary explosion-proof gas cylinders range from ยฅ14.6 to ยฅ21.0, suitable for regular office scenarios; a gas cylinder that only lifts without rotating costs about ยฅ60.0, with a 6-sided inner tube design preventing rotation wear, ideal for fixed-direction use.

The material and design of the chair feet/base affect the seat's mobility and stability. An aluminum alloy four-star base costs about ยฅ138.0, supporting lifting and rotation functions; wholesale cross-shaped chair foot accessories are priced at around ยฅ99.75, offering better cost-effectiveness, suitable for bulk purchases or replacing old chair feet.

Other accessories include rotating chassis and turntables, expanding seat functionality. A 6-inch circular turntable costs about ยฅ11.88, suitable for scenarios requiring 360-degree rotation; a 3-inch galvanized turntable is priced at only ยฅ0.95, ideal for low-cost modifications or auxiliary support.

If converting a car seat into an office chair, adding casters to the middle row seats of MPVs like the GL8 can serve as an alternative, with modification costs around 300-500 yuan. This solution requires ensuring the seat size matches the office space and checking the weight-bearing capacity of the casters.

When selecting accessories, consider the usage scenario, budget, and functional requirements comprehensively. Prioritize explosion-proof, weight-bearing compliant products, and ensure the accessory specifications match the original chair.
