Pilates Fix

Don't Wait!

Your reformers need servicing before they show any signs Most studios wait until a reformer becomes noisy, rough, or stops working before booking a service.

LET'S TALK BEARINGS

What is a bearing?
A bearing sits between a moving part (the wheel) and a stationary part (the axle or bolt). Its role is to reduce friction and support load so movement stays smooth and controlled.

Why they matter in Pilates equipment
In reformers, bearings directly impact:
- Carriage smoothness (glide vs drag)
- Noise levels (quiet vs clicking/grinding)
- Load handling (especially with uneven loading like side-lying work)
- Longevity of both wheels and tracks

In Pilates equipment, the bearings will usually wear out before the actual wheel does.

Pilates Fix – Frequently Asked Questions

When should I service my equipment?
We recommend a professional service every 6–12 months depending on usage. High-traffic studios may need more frequent check-ins.

What’s the difference between in-house maintenance and professional servicing?
Weekly cleaning and basic checks (wiping tracks, checking springs, general tightening) are essential—but a professional service goes deeper. We assess wear and tear, alignment, moving parts, and catch issues before they become costly problems.

What are the signs that my equipment needs a service?
• Noisy or bumpy carriage
• Clicking or uneven movement
• Loose or worn components
• Clients or instructors commenting that something “doesn’t feel right”
• Sometimes there are no signs at all - if your equipment hasn’t been serviced in a while, it’s best to have it checked before something fails. Preventative servicing is always more cost-effective than reactive repairs.

Do you service all brands?
Yes—no matter the brand, age, or style, we’ve likely worked on it.
