Is there a name for this sort of object? I need something like this, but don't know what to type into the webs
(lemmy.world)
I'm going to convert my computer chair from pneumatic to static. I'm currently using plastic clasps that are held on with jubilee clips, but they're not great and need replaced (I'm a heavy lad). A sturdy metal version would be better.
I'm assuming the plumbing world would have something like this, but the language of the plumber is arcane and inaccessible to regular goombas like me. What do I type into the search box?
Cheers!
So I found products like you've shown on Amazon while looking to do the same for my chair but the cylinder on my chair is bigger than I guess "normal" ones, so what I ended up doing instead was using something apparently called a pipe nipple, like this one, that fits over the cylinder. I got the idea/process from this video except substituted a metal nipple like I linked above instead of a plastic coupling like they show. Anyway, it's been working fine for 9 months so far, just make sure you know how much height you want between the base and the seat for the length, and that the inner diameter (ID) of the nipple fits the outer diameter (OD) of your cylinder.
