Description

Are your chair legs scratching the floor or making a terrible noise? These Spherical Furniture Gliders are the solution. Unlike flat caps, the spherical base ensures a smooth slide even if your chair legs are tilted.

Key Features:

- Spherical Design: Optimal contact point regardless of the leg angle.

- Built for Durability: Optimized for 4 perimeters to withstand constant use.

- Internal Rounding: Features a radius at the bottom of the socket to prevent stress fractures and fit the leg perfectly.

- Print-Ready: Includes a small flat cut at the bottom for excellent bed adhesion without losing the "ball" look.

Technical Dimensions (Current STL):

- Inner Diameter: 15.4mm (Bottom) to 16.9mm (Top) - Tapered fit .

- Wall Thickness: 1.6mm.

- Total Height: 24mm.

Print Settings:

- Material: PETG or ASA (for durability and low friction). TPU also works great if you want a "silent/rubbery" grip.

- Perimeters (Wall loops): 4 (This is more important than infill for this part).

- Infill: 15-20% (Grid or Gyroid).

- Supports: No (The design handles the overhangs and has a flat base).

- Layer Height: 0.2mm is perfect.
