Many people have a question: why do furniture casters at home stop slipping after being used for a long time? Is it because of the poor quality of the casters? In fact, it is because furniture casters are mainly composed of anti-entanglement covers, sealing rings, steering locks, single-wheel brakes, full brakes, support frames and other parts. When using furniture casters, we need to use them correctly, otherwise it will cause damage to the wheels or equipment. Therefore, today Chang Che will tell you some ways to deal with caster problems.
Overload or impact will cause the bracket to twist, and the twisted bracket will cause the heavy load to tilt and press on individual wheels, causing the wheels to be damaged prematurely. If it is a plug-in type caster, tighten the nut or rivet it firmly and ensure that the equipment mounting bracket is not bent and the plug-in rod is installed correctly.
When installing furniture casters, use locking nuts or anti-loosening washers. The installation of expansion plug-in casters must ensure that the plug-in rod is firmly installed in the sleeve. Lubrication Regularly add lubricating oil, and the wheels and movable bearings can be used for a long time. Applying grease to the friction parts of the wheel axle seal and roller bearing can reduce friction and make the rotation more flexible. Under normal circumstances, lubrication should be performed every six months. The wheels should be lubricated after the car is cleaned every month. Visually inspect the wheel wear. The poor rotation of the wheel is related to debris such as thin red ropes. The anti-entanglement cover can prevent the entanglement of these debris.
Too loose or too tight casters are another factor. Replace damaged wheels and casters to avoid unstable rotation. After checking and replacing the wheels, make sure to tighten the axle with locking washers and nuts. Because loose axles can cause the wheel spokes to rub against the bracket and get stuck. Replacement wheels and bearings should be available to avoid production losses. If the casters are too loose, they must be replaced immediately.
