The 75lb load capacity is that per. glide.
Asked by David December 22, 20184
AnswersWould say total of four. They are plastic feet, and while thick, probably crack or break under 100lb load.
Would 8 of these be sufficient to hold a bar?Looking for something to level it out and since the load capacity is 75lb’s i figured 8 would be enough
Asked by Mark July 28, 20182
AnswersIf the bar weighs less than 600 lbs. I think they would be fine.
Does this come with the metal stems of would those have to be purchased separately?
Asked by Christian July 27, 20188
AnswersCan you get a metal threaded socket, as I find the plastic splits too easily?
Is the &%lb load capacity for each individual stem or 75lb total for all 4 of them?
Asked by Christian July 27, 20182
AnswersI would presume this is 75 lbs each. I have them on all my 4 leg chairs and I weigh way more than 75lbs and they are just fine after a years use.
Can these be purchased in-store, if so, where in S. Okla. City?
Asked by Greg February 18, 20183
AnswersGo online and look at the product and it will say if it is available at your store or if you have to order it.
How high can the leg be raised and what's the size of the screw(1/4, 3/8, 6,8,10)?
Asked by Lance October 9, 20173
AnswersI suspect that 1" is the maximum that the leg can be safely raised, based upon the depth suggested for the drilled hole. The glide is not that deep, so the bottom of the hole would be the stop for the threaded stem. The screw is a 6 mm machine screw. But, it is designed to screw into the plastic glide sleeve which requires an 11/32 drill hole 1"deep. I hope this helps you.
What size thread on the adjustable screw? Where to purchase?
Asked by hank September 22, 20173
Answersscrew size is 1/4-20
What is the total length of the threaded stem?
Asked by Rich April 25, 20173
AnswersOne inch.
How high can I raise the furniture?
Asked by Beth July 13, 20162
AnswersI would not extend the felt pad more than a 1/2" The thread stem is 1" long, so it needs to be threaded in the insert by at least a 1/2" Remember these glides are used a levelers.
whatis the od of the plastic insert? Does the insert come with glide?
Asked by jmajca June 21, 20162
AnswersYes, the insert comes with the glide. I don't know the OD of the insert, but you need to use a 11/32" drill bit for drilling the hole.

I put them under the base of a table that I just built. It weighs about 75 pounds. I don't trust the plastic threads on the inserts to hold up, so I threw away and replaced them with T-nuts. So far I haven't need to add jam nuts. The table is very stable, doesn't rock. The price was very reasonable.

These were easy to install, and work as intended. However, fairly quickly one of the felt pads fell off, hence the 3 stars and not 5. Fortunately it was a quick fix with a dab of super glue. I would still recommend these, just keep the super glue handy! Also, it's my own fault for not measuring, but if I had it to do all over, I would get the smaller ones, these are bigger than our chair legs so they stick out on all sides which looks a little goofy, just thought I'd mention it.

Excellent choice to protect floors
I have tried several types of scuff guards but these worked so well we put them on all of our chairs. The chairs glide and don’t scuff our hardwood floors. The felt pads stay put. I used a 11/32 wood drill bit that is recommended and tapped in the plastic inserts with a hammer. The stems screw into the inserts by hand. A hand blower or vacuum comes in handy after the drill work. Marking the drill bit to insure you get the proper depth (length of metal stem) helps. Blowing the saw dust off before pulling the drill bit out helps keep the dust from refilling the hole. It takes me about 10 minutes per chair to install these after I get set up. I have provided a few photos I hope they help answer any questions.

Went on a fairly heavy dining room table that already had screw on plastic feet. Easy to swap out. New vinyl plank flooring instructions recommended felt pads on everything that sits on it so we shall see how they get along.
