BodyBilt's standard base is a black five-star base.

Big & Tall chairs, Intensive-Use chairs, and stools (chairs with a footring and tall cylinder) use a 27" base.

Task chairs with a number SIX seat, which use a 24" base.

All other chairs come standard with a 25" base. (All dimensions are based on core diameter.)

In combination with a chrome cylinder, a polished aluminum base option is available on most models.

Polished aluminum bases are 25 inches (core diameter),

Not available with a number FOUR seat style (which includes all Big & Tall chairs).

BodyBilt chairs offer cylinders in Short, Standard, Tall and Extra Tall heights (details below). The range of movement from least extension to maximum extention is referred to as the cylinder's "Stroke". The height of a seat from the floor is a function of the cylinder, the seat mechanism and the seat itself.

This is standard on all chairs (except the task -F1 models). The standard cylinder places seats anywhere from 16 to 24 inches from the floor and comes in either Black (standard) or Chrome finish.

The Standard Cylinder is also available with a 2 inch extention tube which will add an additional 2 inches of height to the seat. Stroke remains 5.5 inches but the lowest seat position will be 2 inches higher than the Standard cylinder without the extension tube. This is great for taller folks who don't want a high minimum seat height of 21" like on the Tall Cylinder but do have really long legs or a bad hip and need to begin a little higher than the standard cylinder.

Short Cylinder: Stroke: 2.5 inches

The Short Cylinder can be ordered on most models and is nice for users less than 5' 6" with K-Style Seat Mechanism selection or less than 5' 2" with J-Style Seat Mechanism selection. . The short cylinder places seats anywhere from 13.75 to 19 inches from the floor.

Tall Cylinder: Stroke 7.5 inches

The Tall Cylinder is only available on Task Models (J-Style ) and some Conference Models (C-Style). It is standard on the "-F1" Task models. The Tall Cylinder places seats anywhere from 21 to 29 inches from the floor resulting in a "Stool" height chair. We encourage you to also select the Footring option with the Tall or Extra Tall cylinders.

Extra Tall Cylinder: Stroke: 10 inches

The Extra Tall Cylinder is only available on Task Models (J-Style ) and some Conference Models (C-Style). The Extra Tall Cylinder provides a very tall "Stool" which places seats anywhere from 23.5 to 31 inches from the floor and comes in either Black or Chrome finish. We encourage you to also select the Footring option with the Tall or Extra Tall cylinders.

You can order full backrest upholstery for any 700 series (Task) BodyBilt chair.

Note: Full backrest upholstery is standard on all Management/Executive and Big & Tall models.

This optional feature, called Air LumbarŽ, is a BodyBilt exclusive! It lets you actually adjust the firmness of the backrest by pumping air into the lumbar area. To inflate the backrest, press the black rubber bulb with your thumb or fingers until the lumbar area is noticeably firmer. To let the air out, just press the black button. Don't pull the bulb away from the backrest to squeeze it or you'll damage your chair, and you'll have to have the air bulb re-attached.

The Backrest Depth Adjuster allows you to bring the backrest closer to the seat, or farther away from it. This adjustment is optional if you select a management or executive chair with the J-mechanism.

Here's how it works: if you feel like the backrest is too close or too far back, loosen the knob and slide the backrest out or in from the seat, then re-tighten the knob to secure it again. Don't sit too deep on the seat, though, or you may restrict circulation to your lower leg.
