The armrests of row chairs are generally made of aluminum alloy or stainless steel. The large-scale precision casting mold is polished after die-casting and then sprayed with powder or plated on the surface. The electroplating effect is better. If the armrest height is inappropriate, it will lead to rapid fatigue of the shoulders. In addition to the armrest height, the width, depth and angle of the armrest pad have much to do with maintaining a comfortable posture. When we read documents or newspapers, the arms placed on the armrest tend to open slightly outward into an inverted figure for reading materials.

Before choosing the right seat surface material, we first need to study the related needs of human body temperature, humidity and comfort. When the ambient temperature is neutral, the human body will feel comfortable. The human body will maintain a thermal balance with the external environment, neither sweating nor supercooling. When this balance is broken, the human body will generate more heat through cold shivers, or the heat will be discharged in the form of evaporation through sweating. Therefore, it has become an important measure of the chair surface material whether the body temperature can be properly maintained or the heat can be dissipated in time.

  1. Seat board of row chair

It usually adopts 1.8MM or 1.5MM thickness of imported cold-roll steel sheets, which are sprayed with electrostatic powder after rust removal treatment. If you need to add leather cushions, imitation leather or leather cushions can be added. In addition, it is also necessary to see whether the metal accessories of the row chair are firm.
