Non-Slip Leveling Feet, Leveling Feet for Aluminum Profile, Adjustable Leveling Feet, Machine Leveling Feet, Adjustable Feet for Industrial Machinery China Factory Manufacturer

We put a black rubber pad under every foot in this series, and that one change is what makes the 4006 range different. Your frame still levels, and now it also holds its position and protects the floor underneath.

A bare steel base slides. On smooth concrete or a coated floor it creeps once a conveyor starts running, and it leaves a mark wherever it sat. So we machine the base and the stud in stainless steel SS304, keep the surface plain, and let a black rubber pad take the contact with the floor. The metal never touches your floor, which means your tiles, epoxy and vinyl stay intact, and the frame stops walking.

We sized the range around the jobs we get asked about most. You choose a 40, 60, 80 or 100 mm base, a thread from M8 up to M24, and a stud length of 35, 40, 50, 65, 100 or 150 mm. Send us the frame drawing and we match the base to the load path and the stud to the real gap between the frame and the floor, so you make a few turns on the foot and finish the job. Twenty part numbers cover the combinations we ship most often.

We have built aluminum profile accessories and automation components at Ningbo Minde Technology Co., Ltd. since 2004. We hold ISO 9001 certification, our products pass SGS environmental testing and they comply with the EU RoHS directive. We ship to more than 35 countries, and we quote frames across the USA, Europe, the Middle East and Southeast Asia every week.

Do you need a length or a base we do not list here? We make those on request.

How It Installs:
1. Measure the gap before you drill anything. Put the frame where it will run, then measure the gap under every foot position and write the numbers down. Our short studs (35, 40, 50 and 65 mm) leave little travel, so a wrong measurement costs you a re-drill.

2. Pick the base and the thread for the position. Take the D40 base for light benches and enclosures, the D60 or D80 base for standard frames, and the D100 base for heavy conveyor legs. Match the thread to the load: M8 and M10 for light frames, M16 and above for loaded lines.

3. Prepare the plate. Mark the hole positions, then drill and tap for the thread you selected, or drill a clearance hole if you plan to lock the foot with two nuts. Deburr both faces so the nut and the pad sit flat.

4. Cut the thread to size. Check the pitch on your drawing first, because fine pitches take a different drill.

5. Run the foot in by hand. Start the stud by hand and keep it straight. Turn it in until it seats, then finish with a wrench. Do not force a stud that has started cross-threaded, and do not grip the stainless shank with a pipe wrench.

6. Set the height with a level. Lay a spirit level across the frame in both directions and turn diagonally opposite feet a little at a time until the frame reads level and every foot carries weight.

7. Lock the height. With the two-nut method, tighten the upper nut down onto the plate and the lower nut up against it. Tighten to the torque on your assembly drawing, and remember that a stainless thread strips faster than a steel one.

8. Check the pad, not just the level. Look under each base and make sure the pad lies flat on the floor with no swarf, weld spatter or grit trapped beneath it. A chip under one pad is the usual reason a frame keeps rocking.

9. Re-check after the first shift. Confirm the level, the locking nuts and the pads again after 24 hours of running, then at every planned service. Clean the pads with water and a mild detergent, keep oils, solvents and strong cleaners off the rubber, and if a pad wears or hardens, ask us for a replacement foot for that position.

Applications:
Assembly benches and workstations, light duty frames and enclosures, conveyor frames, packaging lines, machine guards, laboratory furniture, electronic assembly benches, and any aluminum profile structure that stands on a tiled, epoxy or vinyl floor.

FAQ
What does the rubber pad do?
The black pad is the only part of the foot that touches the floor. It grips smooth concrete, epoxy and vinyl so the frame stays where you put it, it keeps the stainless base from marking the floor, and it takes some of the machine vibration out of the frame.

Which base diameters, threads and stud lengths can I order?
Bases: D40, D60, D80 and D100 mm. Threads: M8, M10, M12, M16, M18, M20 and M24. Stud lengths: 35, 40, 50, 65, 100 and 150 mm. Twenty catalog part numbers cover the combinations we ship most.

How is this different from your plain stainless steel leveling feet?
The plain series carries no pad and comes in D60, D80 and D100 with a 100 mm stud. This rubber pad series adds the pad, the smaller D40 base and the shorter and longer stud options, so you choose it when the frame must not slide and must not mark the floor.

Can I order a different stud length or a different base size?
Yes. We make other lengths and sizes on request. Send us your D-M*L combination or a drawing and our engineers will quote it.

What is the load capacity of each part number?
It depends on the base diameter, the thread and the way you mount the foot. Send us the frame load, the number of feet and your mounting method, and we will confirm the rated load for the part number we recommend.

How do I install these feet on a profile frame?
Tap the base plate, or fit a profile threaded base plate for your slot, run the stud in by hand, level the frame with a spirit level, then lock the height with a nut. You will find the full steps above on this page.
