End caps and glides for chairs and armchairs

Choosing the right end caps for your chairs and armchairs

A chair leg without an end cap scratches parquet, marks tiles and makes noise with every movement. The right end cap protects the floor, stabilises the seat and gives the tube a clean finish. We manufacture end caps for metal chairs (round, square, rectangular or oval tube), for wooden legs and for the best-known furniture brands: Tolix, Fermob, Kartell, Vitra, Hay…

Which end cap for which leg?

• Ribbed insert: it fits inside a hollow tube. Choose it by the outside size and the wall thickness of the tube.
• Wraparound cap: it covers the leg from the outside, ideal for solid, wooden or damaged legs.
• Felt pad or glide: lets the chair slide quietly on parquet or tiles.
• Angled end cap: for slanted legs, so the whole glide surface sits flat on the floor.

Measure before you order

Measure the outside section of the tube (diameter, side, or width × height), then the wall thickness: these two measurements give you the right reference. If in doubt, our measuring guide and customer service will help you find the exact model. Depending on the model, end caps come in black, white, grey or translucent.
