Office Chairs 5 Starbase Replacement & Repair Services in Kenya
The majority of office chair bases currently on the market use a five-star base design. They are preferred because they lessen the strain placed on the neck and back which is a natural result of spending extended periods of time seated. Also, office chairs with a five-point tip base prevents the chair from accidentally tipping over when reclining.
Insta repairs offers replacement for the three kinds of office chair base, that is, the nylon base, aluminium base, and chrome base. Let us discuss further so you may know the difference between the three and the different advantages and disadvantages of each.
Nylon base
Many people in Kenya refer to this as plastic star base. It is relatively affordable and works with nearly all common office chairs that use normal gas cylinders. It can withstand 800 kg of pressure. It has the strength and stability to withstand such pressure.
Nevertheless, it is not without flaws. It is less resilient. It deteriorates over time since nylon always experiences oxidation issues when exposed to air. Additionally, if the black nylon foundation is not well maintained after years of use, scratches will be visible. Overall, it doesn’t appear to be very elegant.
Aluminium base
Because of its greater durability, it is highly preffered by many. The aluminum chair base is made of an alloy of aluminum, which is more corrosion-resistant and lighter than regular carbon steel. Of the three types of office chair bases—nylon, aluminum, and chrome—the aluminum base is the best. It has excellent shock absorption capabilities, it is strong, light, and elegant. However, it is expensive, and is easily scratched when in use.
Chrome base
Chrome-plated chair base is made of iron. Normally, it is referred to as a steel or metal base. Although less expensive and less resistant to corrosion and wear than aluminum, chromium has a brighter, almost mirror-like luster on its surface. Its strengths are that it is sturdy, moderately economical, and visually stunning. The disadvantage is that it will eventually scrape up.
When do you replace your star base?
a)When there is deformation and cracking.
We use a stronger and firmer nylon chair foundation to replace the cracked one for the nylon base. We replace the damaged metal chair base with a brand-new, high-quality aluminum chair base. Also, we swap out the chrome base for a higher-quality, more solid chrome chair base.
b)Scratches
Scratches generally give a chair a bad look. We recommend replacing a base with apparent scratches.
You never have to worry about quality at Insta Repairs. To make sure that our service will last the longest for you, we employ authentic, high-end chair accessories. There are some inexpensive, inferior chair accessories out there, but I strongly advise against compromising quality. Don’t forget: cheap is expensive.
