GLIDES WITH ARTICULATION WITH ANGLED WOOL FELT SURFACE
Material : PA
Colour : Black
Dimensions : mm

It is undoubtedly the most sophisticated floor protection solution in its category: the tilting glide with a felt base is the definitive solution to the problem of wear and tear on delicate wooden floors caused by chair legs at an angle. On surfaces susceptible to scratches (solid wood, varnish, decorative resins), diagonal friction is disastrous. Thanks to the incorporation of a mechanical ball-and-socket joint, the tubular insert follows the angle of your chair’s base, whilst the protective disc remains firmly flat against the floor, ensuring full contact across the entire surface.

The dense felt layer, firmly bonded to the lower cup of the glider, then works to its full potential. By cushioning contact, it ensures a glide comparable to velvet, drastically reducing the force required to move heavy furniture. The improvement in acoustic comfort is equally impressive. Impact noises and shrill squeaks are absorbed by the textile fibres, literally transforming the acoustic atmosphere of a living room or library. The hinged system ensures that the felt does not flatten prematurely at any one of its edges, thereby extending its lifespan exponentially.

Manufacturers of star-base chairs, modern rocking chairs and shell chairs with compass legs regularly incorporate this premium solution. This component is usually fitted by slotting it into the hollow tube, with the ball joint connecting the ribbed shaft to the protective base. By fitting your seating with this cushioned joint, you provide your floors with the gentlest possible protection. This ensures your interior remains free from damage, makes moving furniture easier and protects your environment from everyday noise pollution.
