Why does my drafting chair squeak and how do I fix it?

Squeaking in a drafting chair usually comes from one of three sources: dry pivot points on the tilt mechanism, loose bolts in the seat plate, or worn casters. Applying a silicone-based lubricant to the tilt mechanism pivots and tightening all visible bolts resolves most squeaks. Avoid WD-40 on plastic parts — use silicone spray or dry PTFE lubricant. If casters are squeaking, they may need replacement. If the squeak persists, contact the retailer for warranty service. OfficeFurniture2go.com provides warranty support — call 1-800-460-0858.
