WHAT IS THE BEST WAY OF REMOVING THE TUBULAR FRAMES FROM THE CAST ALUMINIUM PIVOTS ON CASTELLI PLIA FOLDING CHAIRS SO THAT THE PLASTIC SEATS CAN BE REPLACED?

Is there someone out there who would like to purchase my two Plia chairs with the seats broken out? They have the white frames and the backs are with the aqua color?
You may call me at 715-281-2100

Additional info for the person, who has plias with white colour coating. Artifort advise to heaten the connection from the inside to avoide discolouring (chrome) Nothing about coated chaited chairs, unfortunately.

I would suggest to start heating at a low temperature setting and increase gradually if no success.

Good luck.

why cant' somebody post a detailed instruction for the replacement of the seat? This problem seems to be quite common.

at rob de bolster:
how much do you heaten up the connection without burning components? some of my chairs are coated with this white colour and the aluminium camlock contains plastic parts aswell.

met een verffohn de verbinding verhitten. De twee-componentenlijm wordt dan bros en de verbinding kan met een kunststof hamer voorzichtig uit elkaar worden getikt. Montage vindt in omgekeerde richting plaats, nadat de verbinding ontdaan is van lijmresten (schuren) en weer voorzien is van twee-componentenlijm om de zaak te herstellen.
(Info komt van Wagenmakers, Artifort, die importeur was)

As mentioned previously, Graham Mancha, in Great Britain, has spare parts, including the acrylic seats & backs of the Plia chair. Right now he states he has the solid black (ABS plastic) ones too.

I have not been able to find anyone else who carries Plia parts. I have purchased the chair glides from him, & everything went very well.

have found a company that does excellent replacements of the various components for Plia chairs. Try their web site http://www.mancha.demon.co.uk/spares.html where you can find all details. Graham Mancha gives good service for these chairs and some other iconic products.

Not and answer so much as a question.

Dear Harry Montresor,

I've got the same problem. Did anyone come up with a solution for you?

Best,

Jim.
