Xintang Office Chair Repair

Admin October 10, 2026

Xintang office chair repair can adopt corresponding methods for different components, or you can contact a professional repair company for handling. Details are as follows:

Wheel repair: First, check whether the wheels are stable when the chair is placed upright and upside down. Confirm that each wheel foot is in contact with the ground. Turn the chair upside down to check for any signs of damage on the wheel feet. If damaged wheels are found, you can purchase matching new wheels. Contact the manufacturer and provide the chair model for ordering, or remove an old wheel and take it to an office supplies store to find a matching replacement set. Pay attention to ensuring that the shape and size of the wheel axles match. When removing the casters, hold the caster wheel with one hand and the bottom of the chair with the other hand and pull firmly. If the caster foot is stuck and cannot be pulled out, insert a flat-head screwdriver into the small gap between the caster foot and the chair as a lever. For a very small number of casters fixed with screws, use a screwdriver to loosen the screws and remove the casters. Then, apply a small amount of spray lubricant (such as WD - 40) or a pea-sized amount of Vaseline to each socket on the chair base. Use a rubber mallet to tap each caster into its socket on the chair. Finally, turn the chair upside down to test the new wheels.

Hydraulic rod (gas rod) repair: The main failures of the office chair hydraulic rod (gas spring) are manifested as "failure to lift or lower, automatic sinking, and inability to lock the height". Since it is a one-time encapsulated component, it cannot be repaired and must be replaced as a whole. When replacing, first safely remove the old hydraulic rod. Prepare tools such as a large pipe wrench (or adjustable wrench), rubber mallet, gloves, and goggles. Separate the five-star base from the chair seat. The disassembly method varies depending on the connection type. For example, for a snap-ring type, use a screwdriver to pry open and remove the metal snap ring; for a screw-fixed type, unscrew the fixed screw in the center of the chassis. Accurately measure the total length, pipe diameter (grade), stroke, and other dimensions of the old rod. Take the old rod or a photo of the precise dimensions and purchase a new hydraulic rod of the same size, grade, and with safety certification (such as SGS/BIFMA). The price is approximately 30 - 100 yuan. When installing the new hydraulic rod, clean the interface, connect the five-star base and the chair seat, place the chair upright, and repeatedly lift and lower it several times to test whether it operates smoothly and whether the locking is firm.

Repair of other components: For a loose chair back, remove it with a wrench, apply an appropriate amount of wood glue to the end of the chair back, reinstall it, and press it firmly. Wait for the glue to dry before using it. For a broken armrest, remove it and use strong glue to bond the broken part. Use clamps to apply pressure and let it dry for at least 24 hours before reinstalling it on the chair. For a damaged seat cushion, use scissors to trim off the damaged fabric, keeping the bottom sponge or filling intact. Select similar fabric or use a sewing machine to mend it, and then reinstall the repaired seat cushion on the chair.
