Wheel Types and Fixing Methods

The common fixing methods for office chair wheels are insert-type snap-on and screw-fixed.

• Insert-type snap-on: The wheel is connected to the chair leg via a snap-on structure. To replace it, simply grasp the old wheel and pull it outward. If you lack strength, you can use pliers to grip the edge of the wheel for leverage. If the connection between the wheel and the chair leg is a straight metal rod insertion type, hold the root of the roller tightly and sway it left and right while pulling it vertically outward. If it is a snap-on type, use a flat-head screwdriver to pry open the edge snap spring.
• Screw-fixed: The wheel is fixed to the chair leg with screws. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the fixing screws and then remove the old wheel. If the connection is a threaded rotary type, unscrew it counterclockwise.

Replacement Steps

1. Removing the Old Wheel:
   • Select the appropriate tool (pliers, screwdriver, or flat-head screwdriver) based on the fixing method.
   • If the wheel is rusted and stuck, drip some WD-40 lubricant and let it sit for 10 minutes before operating to avoid damaging the chair leg by forcing it.
2. Installing the New Wheel:
   • Insert-type snap-on: Align the new wheel with the wheel axle and press it in vertically. A "click" sound indicates that it is installed in place.
   • Screw-fixed: Align the installation position and tighten the screws to ensure the wheel is stable and not loose.

Wheel Selection Suggestions

General swivel chair wheels are priced between 7.00 and 11.00 yuan per piece, with diverse functions and types:

• By fixing method: You can choose threaded, snap-spring, or insert-wire types, which should match the fixing method of the original wheel.
• By function: If you need silence or floor protection, choose soft rubber wheels. If you need to fix the chair's position, choose wheels with brake functions. If you need dust prevention, choose wheels with dust rings.

Precautions

• Before replacement, confirm that the wheel size is compatible with the chair leg to avoid installation failure due to size mismatch.
• Wear gloves during operation to prevent metal edges from scratching your fingers.
• If the chair leg is made of plastic, control the force during disassembly to avoid breakage.
