Chair Leg Tips & Furniture Glides

Chair leg tips and furniture glides protect floors, quiet movement, and keep chairs, stools, and tables stable. These small components create a smooth, low-friction contact point between furniture feet and surfaces, preventing scratches on hardwood, laminate, vinyl, tile, and polished concrete. They also reduce scuffs on walls and baseboards, limit wobble, and extend the life of both furniture and flooring—ideal for homes, offices, hospitality spaces, classrooms, and workshops.

Choose from slip-on caps, nail-on and screw-on glides, adhesive felt pads, and threaded stem levelers. Materials include felt for ultra-quiet sliding, PTFE/Teflon and UHMW for slick, long-wearing movement, nylon for durable everyday use, rubber and silicone for grip and vibration damping, and metal cups for heavy-duty legs. Shapes cover round, square, and rectangular feet, with options for angled chair legs, sled bases, and tubular frames. Many glides include insert sleeves for hollow legs, tapping threads, or swivel bases that self-level on uneven floors.

For the best results, match the glide to your floor and furniture. Measure leg diameter or width, confirm the foot shape, and check weight ratings for dining chairs versus bar stools or commercial seating. Choose felt on hardwood for quiet protection, PTFE on tile for effortless movement, and rubber on polished concrete for grip. For wobble, use leveling glides with threaded inserts. Installation is straightforward: clean the foot, remove grit, pre-drill for nail-on or screw-on styles, and press or tap slip-on caps until fully seated. Maintain performance by inspecting pads for wear, replacing compressed felt, and cleaning dust that can act like sandpaper. Stocking a variety of chair leg tips and furniture glides keeps maintenance quick, protects investments, and supports a cleaner, safer space.
