Steel Base Fixed Levelling Feet
Richmond’s steel base fixed levelling feet are engineered to provide strong, stable support for static equipment and furniture across commercial and industrial environments. With a non-swivelling design and wide steel base, they are ideal for applications where solid ground contact and high load stability are required. These feet are commonly used on workbenches, racking systems, shelving units, and inspection stations where equipment must remain level and in place on uneven flooring.
Why Choose Steel Base Fixed Levelling Feet?
The steel base construction offers increased strength, durability, and resistance to deformation under load, compared to nylon or plastic alternatives. This makes them well suited to heavier-duty use where metal-to-floor contact is preferred for strength and longevity. Their fixed (non-articulating) head ensures consistent contact with flat or slightly uneven surfaces, without the flex of a ball-jointed design—making them easier to align across multiple legs.
Common Applications
- Workshop and industrial workbenches
- Fixed storage racks and shelving units
- Inspection and quality control stations
- Machinery stands and maintenance tables
- Retail and warehouse displays
- Heavy DIY benches and garage builds
These levelling feet are ideal for areas with hard flooring—such as concrete or epoxy-coated surfaces—where durability and rigidity are important.
Key Features
- High-strength steel base for reliable ground contact
- Fixed head design—no articulation or swivel
- Height adjustable via threaded stem
- Non-slip rubber or plastic base options on select models
- Suitable for medium to heavy-duty static loads
FAQs
What’s the difference between steel base and nylon base feet?
Steel base feet are stronger and more rigid, making them better for heavier equipment or workshop use. Nylon feet are lighter, quieter, and more floor-friendly for residential or light commercial applications.
Can I use these on sloped floors?
These are best for flat or slightly uneven surfaces. For significant slope compensation, Richmond’s ball jointed (swivel) levelling feet are more suitable.
Are they suitable for outdoor use?
Some models are available with zinc-plated or stainless components. For long-term outdoor exposure, opt for stainless steel stem versions and avoid pooling water around the base.
Will they damage floors?
Many models include a rubber pad or plastic insert to prevent scuffing. For sensitive surfaces, check product specs or use protective floor pads beneath the foot.
Do they come assembled?
Yes. Richmond’s steel base levelling feet are supplied as complete assemblies—ready to screw into compatible tube inserts or threaded sockets.
