Casters Standars
European Standards for Casters
In the caster industry, several European standards serve as guidelines to ensure the quality, safety, and environmental compatibility of products. Here, we provide an overview of some pivotal standards that are commonly adhered to:
| Standard | Description | Function Tested | Qualification Criteria | Testing Machine |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EN840 | Ensures compliance with mobility and safety requirements for office furniture. | Load capacity, rolling resistance, and durability | Must meet load and durability specifications under everyday use conditions | Universal testing machines (UTM), rolling resistance tests |
| PAHs (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) | Governs the restriction of PAHs in consumer products, including casters and wheels. | Chemical content analysis | PAH concentration must be below specified limits (e.g., <1 mg/kg) | Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) |
| EN12529 | Defines the mechanical strength required for office chair casters. | Impact strength, stress testing | Casters must withstand shock loads equivalent to the impact force on hard floors. | Shock testing machine, drop impact tests |
| DIN 68131 | Establishes material specifications and safety for casters designed for office furniture. | Wear resistance, durability under extreme conditions | Materials used must not break down under continuous load and wear tests | Wear and tear testing machine, tensile testing apparatus |
These standards are integral in guiding manufacturers to produce products that are not only of high quality but also safe and environmentally responsible. Adherence to these standards is often seen as a mark of reliability and trustworthiness in the industry.
How to Choose
How to Choose the Right Casters For Your Office Chair?
Choosing the right office chair casters is essential for ensuring smooth movement, durability, and floor protection. Follow these guidelines to make an informed decision:
1. Consider the Type of Floor
- Hardwood or Tile Floors: Opt for casters made of soft materials like Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) or Polyurethane (PU) to protect the floor from scratches and minimize noise.
- Carpeted Floors: For carpeted areas, nylon or polyurethane casters provide the best performance, offering smoother rolling and durability.
- Heavy-Duty Surfaces: If you have heavy-duty equipment, consider casters made from durable materials like steel or nylon, which can handle increased load capacity.
2. Determine the Load Capacity
- Make sure to select casters that can support the weight of your office chair plus the weight of the person using it. For heavy-duty chairs, choose casters with higher weight-bearing capacity (up to 100 kg or more per caster).
3. Look for Swivel or Locking Features
- Swivel Casters: For easy maneuverability, choose casters that swivel 360 degrees, allowing you to move your chair in any direction.
- Locking Casters: If you need to keep the chair stationary, look for casters with a locking mechanism to prevent movement.
4. Choose the Right Material
- PU Casters: Great for floor protection and quiet operation. Ideal for modern offices with hardwood or tile floors.
- TPR Casters: Soft and noise-reducing, suitable for quiet and floor-friendly movement.
- PP Casters: Lightweight and budget-friendly, typically for lighter office chairs or occasional use.
5. Design and Aesthetics
- Choose casters that complement the design of your office chairs. Transparent or black casters are stylish and unobtrusive, while color options can add a unique touch to your office decor.
How to Install
How to Install New Casters For Your Office Chair?
Installing office chair casters is a straightforward process. Follow these steps for a hassle-free installation:
1. Remove the Old Casters
- Step 1: Turn the office chair upside down, ensuring it’s stable. Use a cloth or mat to avoid damage to the seat.
- Step 2: Grip the old casters and pull them out of their sockets. Some casters may require gentle twisting to loosen them.
2. Prepare the New Casters
- Step 1: Ensure the new casters are compatible with the chair. Most casters have a standard stem size, but it’s always good to double-check.
- Step 2: For casters with a push-fit design, make sure the stem aligns with the socket.
3. Install the New Casters
- Step 1: Align the stem of the new caster with the socket on the base of the chair.
- Step 2: Insert the caster into the socket. Apply firm but gentle pressure until the caster clicks into place.
- Step 3: For threaded casters, screw the caster into the socket by turning it clockwise until secure.
4. Test the Movement
- Step 1: Once all casters are installed, flip the chair back over and test the movement by rolling the chair around on the floor.
- Step 2: If necessary, adjust the casters to ensure smooth, even movement.
5. Lock the Casters (If Applicable)
- If your casters have a locking mechanism, engage the lock after installation to keep the chair stationary when needed.
