Eames 670 lounge chair side flexing shock mounts. If you own an Eames lounge chair there is one thing you can be sure of: at some point in its life the rubber mounts connecting the seat to the back will fail. Measuring 114mm x 44mm x 12mm and made of hard rubber with a metal insert, this is the only part of the 670 for which a patent was granted. Because of their size and position in relation to the back of the seat the mounts are under a very high load when the chair is in use. If one of these fails there is a danger the lower back panel of the chair might split too. For this reason it is advisable to fit a matched pair of genuine shock mounts when one breaks. Careful preparation and gluing is required. Basic woodworking skills are necessary when fitting new shock mounts. If in doubt this should be done by a skilled person. These are genuine OEM parts. £50 each. | ||

Eames Aluminium / Soft Pad Group / Executive chair torsion bar. Brand new OEM replacement torsion bar for use on EA desk chairs, Executive desk chairs and (later) high back lounge chairs. Although now considered dated, this was cutting edge technology in the 1960s when the torsion bar principle was adopted by the Eames Office as a replacement for the less reliable flo-tilt mechanism. It was subsequently used on all Eames desk chairs. The torsion bar is made of case hardened sprung steel and must be flawless. The slightest imperfection is likely to cause a fracture. If your chair tilts back and will not return it might have a broken torsion bar. The bar is 1cm (3/8") square x 39cm (15.3") or 43cm (16.9"). P.O.A. |
