Tack Glides and Tap-In Glides

Tack glides and tap-in glides are an economic solution designed to protect floors and furniture by facilitating smoother movement and reducing friction. The furniture glides contain a steel nail molded into a plastic base or attached to a metal base that extends from the base to a wooden surface, such as a wooden leg. Some tack glides have annular rings on the nail for extra holding power in wood. The glides are available in many different styles with several base material options.
Superior Components offers many high-quality tack glides and tap-in glides from our furniture glide selection to ensure top protection of floors.

What are Tack Glides and Tap-In Glides

Tack glides are circular pads that are often plastic or nylon with a built-in nail to puncture the wood of furniture feet during installation. The glides are positioned at the center of the leg, then hammered into the wood until the plastic base rests flush against the furniture to protect the floors from scratches. Comparatively, tap-in glides are similar but have more specialized features, such as felt tips or stem mechanisms designed for specific materials. These components are best used for residential and commercial furniture that requires a higher quality floor protection.
