The "Test Before You Bulk Buy" Solution for Educational Institutions
Selecting the correct replacement feet for school furniture can be difficult. Because different chair brands use various tube thicknesses, internal diameters, and leg angles, even a one-millimetre difference can result in a part that does not fit or wears out too quickly.
To ensure your school gets the exact product and size required—and to avoid the cost and hassle of returning large orders—we recommend testing these components on your furniture first. This ensures that when you move to a larger quantity, the order is correct the first time.
Our School Sample Pack has been curated specifically for UK schools, colleges, and universities. It includes a physical specimen of our most durable and popular components, allowing you to test for fit, floor compatibility, and longevity in a real-classroom environment.
What is included in this Sample Pack?
This kit provides a universal selection of both internal inserts and external caps, covering the most common furniture types found in modern educational settings:
Angled Chair Leg Caps (External Ferrules): 1 unit of every available size. Ideal for standard metal-framed classroom chairs where the leg meets the floor at an angle.
Round Domed Tube Inserts (Internal): 1 unit of every size up to 20mm. High-quality, German-engineered inserts that provide a clean, professional finish inside the chair leg.
Angled Round Tube Inserts (Internal): 1 unit of every available size. Specifically designed for slanted legs, ensuring the base sits flush with the floor to prevent uneven wear.
Steel-Base Rubber Ferrules (Heavy Duty): 1 unit of every size from 16mm to 20mm (Black). Featuring an internal steel washer to prevent the chair leg from piercing the rubber, these are built for high-traffic areas.
Nylon-Base Tilting Insert Glides (Internal): 1 unit of every size from 14mm to 19mm. These angle-adjusting glides (0-20°) are perfect for uneven floors or chairs with unique leg pitches.
Why Order a Sample Pack?
Eliminate Guesswork: Physical testing is the only guaranteed way to confirm the Outside Diameter (OD) or Inside Diameter (ID) required for your furniture.
Evaluate Floor Protection: Test different materials (Nylon, Rubber, or Steel) to see which performs best on your specific floor type, such as laminate, LVT, or traditional parquet.
Verify Quality: Experience the durability of our German-engineered components first-hand before committing your budget.
B2B Procurement Ready: We understand the school billing process. We accept Purchase Orders (POs) and offer 30-day credit terms for all educational institutions.
Order your sample pack today to ensure your next bulk replacement project is seamless and accurate.
Great product and service even came with a pilot drill which was great as it is impossible to buy an individual drill of the required size. The floor protectors work perfectly on our new Karndean LVT and make it so easy to move our heavy oak dining chairs. No more scraping noises just a sound like someone saying 'shush' as they glide across the floor. Wish I'd bought them years ago.
