help IKEA Markus Replacement Casters FAQ
What size stem do I need for IKEA Markus replacement casters?
The IKEA Markus office chair uses a standard 11mm (roughly 7/16 inch) grip ring stem for its casters. Most universal rollerblade-style replacement casters on the market are designed to fit this exact specification directly out of the box.
Will rollerblade casters damage hardwood floors?
No, high-quality rollerblade-style replacement casters use soft polyurethane wheels that are specifically designed to be safe for hardwood floors, laminate, and tile. They actually protect floors better than the original hard plastic IKEA casters, which can scratch softer woods over time.
How do I remove the original casters from an IKEA Markus chair?
To remove the original wheels, you simply lay the chair on its side and pull the caster firmly straight out from the wheel base socket. If it is stuck, you can use a flathead screwdriver or a pry bar to gently lever the grip ring out of the hole.
Do replacement rollerblade casters fit other IKEA chairs like the Järvfjället?
Yes, because IKEA uses a largely universal 11mm grip ring stem across their entire office chair line, these replacement casters will also fit the Järvfjället and other standard desk chairs. Just ensure the replacement wheels explicitly mention an 11mm grip ring stem.
