Product Description   22mm metallic foot glide
Achieve perfect stability and protect your floors with these versatile 22mm Metallic Foot Glides. These adjustable levelers combine durable metallic construction with a protective rubber base to provide reliable support and vibration damping for cabinets, appliances, and furniture. Featuring a standard M6 threaded stud, these 22mm Foot Glides easily screw into pre-existing furniture feet or can be installed directly into wooden bases, allowing you to adjust height by simply rotating the glide.

The 22mm diameter provides a stable footprint that distributes weight evenly, preventing floor damage and reducing wobble on uneven surfaces. The integrated rubber pad offers excellent grip on hardwood, tile, laminate, and vinyl floors while protecting surfaces from scratches and reducing noise transmission. Whether you’re leveling a kitchen cabinet on an uneven floor, stabilizing a washing machine to reduce vibration, or adding adjustable feet to DIY furniture, this pack of four 22mm Metallic Foot Glides provides a professional, functional solution that enhances both stability and protection.

How Do Adjustable Foot Glides Solve Common Furniture Problems?
Uneven floors are a common challenge in both homes and commercial spaces, causing furniture to wobble, cabinets to rock, and appliances to vibrate excessively. These 22mm Metallic Foot Glides provide an elegant solution through their adjustable design. By screwing the glides into furniture legs or bases, you can independently adjust each one’s height to compensate for floor irregularities up to 10mm.

This eliminates frustrating wobbles that can damage furniture joints over time and prevents the “rocking” that makes cabinets and appliances feel unstable. The rubber base adds crucial vibration damping—particularly valuable for washing machines, dryers, and workshop equipment—while protecting floors from scratches and preventing furniture “walking” during use. For DIY projects, these glides offer the flexibility to perfect furniture leveling during final installation rather than requiring precise leg cutting during construction.

What Makes the 22mm Diameter Ideal for Most Applications?
The 22mm diameter strikes the perfect balance between stability and discretion for most furniture applications. This size provides sufficient surface area to distribute weight effectively without appearing bulky or obtrusive. For typical furniture like bookshelves, cabinets, and tables, 22mm glides offer stable support without the visual prominence of larger industrial glides.

The diameter is large enough to prevent “sinking” into softer floor coverings like carpet or vinyl while remaining small enough to fit within standard furniture leg profiles. This versatile size makes the 22mm Metallic Foot Glides suitable for everything from delicate side tables to substantial media consoles, ensuring reliable performance across a wide range of applications without requiring multiple specialized products.

How Does the M6 Thread System Work and What Are the Installation Options?
The M6 metric thread (approximately 1/4″ diameter) is the industry standard for furniture levelers and glides, making these 22mm Foot Glides compatible with a vast array of existing furniture and hardware. Installation offers multiple options:

– Direct Threading: Screw directly into pre-drilled holes in wooden furniture legs or bases (drill 5mm pilot hole recommended).
– Replacement: Remove existing fixed glides or damaged feet and replace with these adjustable versions.
– Adapter Use: Combine with T-nuts or threaded inserts for secure installation in thicker materials.
– Retrofit: Add to furniture lacking adjustable feet by installing threaded inserts into existing legs.
The M6 thread provides sufficient strength for loads up to 50kg per glide while allowing smooth adjustment. The thread pitch is optimized for precise height control—each full rotation changes height by approximately 1.5mm, giving you fine control over leveling.

What Types of Furniture and Appliances Benefit Most from These Glides?
These 22mm Metallic Foot Glides are exceptionally versatile, providing benefits across numerous applications:
– Kitchen & Bathroom Cabinets: Level base cabinets on uneven floors for proper door alignment and stability.
– Major Appliances: Stabilize washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, and refrigerators to reduce noise and vibration.
– Office Furniture: Adjust desks, filing cabinets, and bookcases for stability on commercial carpet or uneven floors.
– DIY Furniture: Add professional finishing touches to homemade tables, benches, and storage units.

– Audio/Video Equipment: Isolate speakers, turntables, and media consoles from floor vibrations.
– Commercial Displays: Stabilize retail displays, exhibition stands, and signage on uneven surfaces.
The pack of four provides exactly what’s needed for most standard four-legged furniture items.

How Should These Glides Be Adjusted for Optimal Performance?
Proper adjustment ensures maximum stability and floor protection. Begin by placing your furniture in its intended location. Screw all four 22mm Metallic Foot Glides into place until they make light contact with the floor. Test for wobble by gently rocking the furniture. Identify which corners are unstable and gradually extend those glides by turning clockwise (typically 1/4 to 1/2 turns at a time). Re-check stability after each adjustment.

Once stable, ensure all glides maintain firm floor contact—avoid having any glide barely touching as this reduces effectiveness. For heavy appliances, adjust until the unit feels solid without rocking. The rubber base will compress slightly under load, so make final adjustments with the furniture fully loaded if possible. Periodically re-check adjustment as furniture settles or floors change with seasons.
