How to replace a broken universal wheel of a suitcase?

suitcase light wheels

Swivel casters are like a flexible leg for a suitcase, accompanying you on your trip. However, if the wheels of a suitcase are broken, it will make it more inconvenient to carry luggage. What should we do if the Swivel casters of a suitcase are broken? The Swivel casters manufacturer will talk about the selection of suitcases. We all pay attention to the appearance, color and size of the suitcase. These are external things that are definitely worth our attention, but when buying, don't ignore the wheels of the suitcase. As the old saying goes: A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. When traveling, if the wheels of the suitcase are not easy to use, it is almost like picking up a mobile phone without WIFI. How can you have fun? The materials of the suitcase wheels on the market are rubber and plastic. The current maturity of the process for making suitcase wheels is very high, but for people who often use suitcases to travel, how should they replace the suitcase wheels when they are unusable?

 

Common wheels for trolley cases include fixed wheels and Swivel casters, which are tightly integrated at the bottom of the case. The bearings in the wheels enable the wheels to move on a flat ground. Therefore, when purchasing a case, we recommend purchasing a case with universal wheels or double-row wheels. First, the quality is relatively guaranteed, and second, it is relatively labor-saving and easy to use.

 

Swivel casters: Cases with Swivel casters are relatively high-end. The connection between the bottom of the case and the wheels is generally in the external part. When replacing, we only need to prepare the disassembly and assembly tools, remove the reinforcement device at the connection part of the wheel and the case body, and replace it with a wheel that matches the case type. After the installation is completed, test whether the case shakes when it moves.

 

Fixed wheels: You may not notice that the height of the box with fixed wheels is lower than that of the box with Swivel casters. This is because the box with fixed wheels uses wheels that occupy some space in the box, so the box is lower in comparison. Of course, this property and the fixed position between the wheels are relatively tighter, so we will be more troublesome when it is slippery. Prepare a hand saw before installation, disassemble the tools and wheels, first use a hand saw to cut the wheel around the large horizontal axis so that the wheel can be removed, and then install the screws prepared to replace the horizontal axis and the replacement wheel on the box.

 

If the above two conditions still cannot solve your problem, it is recommended that you can handle the after-sales warranty of the box product. Generally, the after-sales warranty time of the box brand will be 1 to 2 years, and you can send it directly for repair.
