Seat Slide Mechanism

This is an additional extra added to your chosen chair, please advise at time of ordering.

A lab or office seat is designed to provide ergonomic support for individuals working at desks, workbenches, or lab stations for extended periods. These seats prioritise comfort, adjustability, and durability.

The seat slide mechanism allows the seat pan (the part you sit on) to move forward and backward independently of the backrest. This adjustment helps accommodate users of different leg lengths, ensuring better thigh support and posture.

Use:

Enhances ergonomic comfort by allowing fine-tuned seat depth adjustment.
Supports correct posture, reducing pressure on the thighs and lower back.
Common in chairs used in offices, laboratories, and control rooms.

Materials:

Mechanism Housing: Usually made of steel or aluminium, sometimes with a powder-coated finish to resist corrosion.
Sliding Components: Often use nylon or polymer bushings for smooth, quiet motion.
Seat Pan: Typically made from moulded plastic, plywood, or metal, with cushioning foam and a fabric or vinyl cover.
