Gripweave Adhesive Rubber Furniture Tape

What this tape is

Gripweave Adhesive Rubber Furniture Tape is a roll of rubber foam with a peel-and-stick backing. The top face has a textured non-slip grid pattern that holds onto hard floors and keeps furniture from sliding. The foam adds a soft layer between the leg and the floor, so chairs and tables glide less and sit quieter.

It is made for furniture legs on chairs, tables and sofas. Use it on wood, laminate, tile and other hard surfaces where you want a cushion and a grip in one step. The black color blends in under most furniture.

Sizes and options

Pick the width that matches your furniture leg. Each roll is 6.56 ft (2 m) long and 0.23 in (6 mm) thick, so you can cut several pads from one roll.

One roll is in the box. Choose your width before you add it to your cart.

How to fit it

1. Clean the bottom of the leg. Wipe off dust, grit and old adhesive, then let it dry.
2. Measure the base of the leg and cut a piece of tape to size with household scissors.
3. Peel the backing off the tape.
4. Press the tape onto the bottom of the leg, textured side facing out. Hold it for a few seconds.
5. Set the furniture down and check that it sits level. Trim any overhang.

For a round leg, cut a square piece and trim the corners so it follows the shape. For a flat rectangular base, cut a strip to match. If a leg is uneven, add a second layer of tape to level it out.

Where it works

Use it on dining chairs, kitchen stools, side tables, coffee tables and sofa legs. It suits hard floors such as hardwood, laminate, vinyl and tile. The rubber foam grip helps keep furniture in place when you sit down or stand up, and the foam layer softens the contact between leg and floor.

This tape is not a felt pad. Felt glides; rubber grips. If you want furniture to slide easily, choose a felt pad. If you want it to stay put, this rubber tape is the better fit.

Care and upkeep

Wipe the tape with a damp cloth when it picks up dust or hair. Let it air dry. Check the pads every few months and replace any piece that has worn thin or lost its grip. To remove the tape, peel it back slowly from one corner. If any adhesive stays behind, wipe it with a little rubbing alcohol.

Store the unused roll flat in a cool, dry place. Keep the backing paper on the part you have not used yet so it stays ready for the next project.
