Lifelong · Black with brake

The last office chair wheels you'll need

Not all rolling casters are created equal. These heavy-duty wheels pair an industrial-grade steel frame, precision ball bearings and a durable polyurethane tread, with a built-in brake lever on every caster. Made for the office, gaming, relaxing and remote work.

  • Brake on every caster. Press the lever to lock, release to roll.
  • Made for daily use. Steel frame, ball bearings and a polyurethane tread.
  • Standard stem size. Fits chairs with a 7/16″ × 7/8″ stem. Not compatible with IKEA chairs.

Floors & control

Gentle on floors, steady when you stop

The polyurethane tread is made to roll across hardwood, laminate, vinyl, tile and carpet, so you can retire the chair mat. When you want the chair to stay put, press the brake on each caster to lock it.

On carpet, smoothness depends on pile height: low-pile carpet rolls more easily than high-pile.

  • Floor-friendly tread. Designed to be safe on hardwood, laminate, vinyl, tile and carpet.
  • Quiet glide. Smooth, quiet rolling for calls and late-night work.
  • Lock when you need it. Press down on the brake to hold your chair in place, for example at a standing desk. Release to roll.

  • Wheel size: 3″ (7.6 cm)
  • Load capacity: up to 650 lbs

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do the brakes work?

Each caster has its own brake lever. Press down on the brake to lock the wheel so your chair stays in place, and release it to roll again. It is handy at a standing desk or any time you want the chair to stay put.

Will they fit my chair?

These casters use a standard 7/16″ × 7/8″ stem. They are not compatible with IKEA chairs, or with some off-brand chairs that use a different stem size. Before you order, pull one existing caster out and compare its stem with the measurements in the fit check above.

Do I still need a chair mat, and how do they roll on carpet?

The polyurethane tread is made to roll across hardwood, laminate, vinyl, tile and carpet, so a chair mat is not needed on most floors. On carpet, smoothness depends on pile height: low-pile carpet rolls more easily than high-pile.

What is the weight capacity?

These casters support up to 650 lbs.

Do I need any tools to install them?

No. Pull the old casters straight out of the chair legs, push each new caster stem into the leg socket until it is firmly seated, then press down on the brake to lock the wheel.

What if they do not work for me?
