Eames Lounge Chair Shaft Bushing
(for Vitra, Herman Miller owner please scroll down and read closely!)
This is the bushing for the swivel shaft. If your Lounge Chair is wiggly this is the part you have to change.
Difficult to install! May need some adjustment to fit. See Video below!
We have good experience to press it in by using a screw clamp. Please use some soft wood as a layer and provide the bushing is straight in line.
When the bushing is pressed in, it may be hard to turn the shaft. In this case, usually a reamer (25mm) is used to adapt the hole.
Some customer had good success with a round wood with sandpaper. Please carefully step by step, and straight in line with the bushing!
NOT FOR US PRODUCTION HERMAN MILLER BASES
Please note, some chairs are labeled as Herman Miller, but they are Vitra production! For these the bushing will work, but not for US production bases!
