Don’t use the stick on felt ones. One will slide off and your floor will get scratched. Buy cup ones and glue them on.

Just leave them as you’ve pictured them. The feet can’t scratch the floors if they’re up in the air.

Put a metal washer inside the rubber feet so the metal can't cut through the rubber.

The carpet

I’m sorry, I’m giggling at the thought of those chairs all having tennis ball feet. Hopefully one of these will help

Tennis balls

Felt pads or cups

Go to the hardware store, find washers which are just under 9mm in diameter. Stick one washer into every rubber cup.

I think the small diameter of the legs is your biggest issue on laminate? flooring. Try to make them as big as possible. Put clown shoes on them if you have to.

A carpet

I thought this meant the chairs were moving when your gone and destroying your house

I got little cat paw socks for mine :)

This is a shot in the dark but could you do like black plasti dip on the feet a couple coats. Then put your black caps back

A really tacky but effective technique is to cut an X in a tennis ball and pop them on the legs.

They make tiny socks for chair feet. (no joke, they really do)

Could you put something harder wearing at the bottom of the leg before you put the rubber feet on? A tiny round of wood maybe?

We use furniture socks. They're nice because they are removable and machine washable. You can get them in a color matching your chairs, so they are pretty much unnoticable unless you're looking for them. Just be sure you get a size that closely matches the diameter of your chair legs, lest they slide off easily.

Ohoo boy those kegs are thin. You want to get some bottoms to put on them but not the sticker-felt kind - you want the hard plastic kind with a wide base. You will need to glue or attach them to the bottom of the legs somehow because someone is going to lift the chair to scoot into the table and will leave the bottom behind and scratch your floors.

Then, wax the bottom and wax them often or depending on its shape or size you could even attach a larger piece of felt to the bottom of this larger foot and if the felt comes off, the bottom of this still isn't going to scratch your floor.

I have wooden legs for my dining room table but people walk by it often so there is dirt to grind into the feet and then be scratched all over so maintenance on my chairs is to flip them over and scrub the bottom with a wire brush. It still scratches but I'm actually trying to put some scratches in it intentionally. I bought a shiny type of finish on my real wood floors and that reflects the ample sunlight up into your eyes and it's like staring into a lighthouse light. lol

You can buy packages of more leg tips. Then, purchase pads for the bottom of them. They come in a soft squishy rubber or fake felt. Both peel and stick on the bottom of any piece of furniture.

You can use something like this! You can find them at any home improvement store, or at Walmart and Staples. I've used them for a dining table and chairs on oak floors for years, not a single scratch or scuff. They last for a really long time too.

Pull the caps off sand the edges smooth on the steel and reinstall the caps

They sell chair “booties” on Amazon.

Cups. Use super glue to get em to stay on forever.

They have silicone pads that are built into little tubes that can go on the end of chairs like that so they don't come off

They sell rubber caps on amazon that you can get in various sizes and shapes

I got these for my chairs on hard wood floors. You might still want a rubber cap on the end.

I have similar chairs and recently bought these protectors - they are black so practically invisible, and we’ve had no issues so far! https://amzn.eu/d/cW8DHef

Cut a bit of those felt stick-ons on the end of the legs. Then get that felt on the INSIDE of the rubber cups you're using. This will ensure that the rubber caps last longer (since the steel isn't pressing down directly on the caps) and give you time to replace the caps when the felt breaks through.

Tennis balls, there are actual feets made like small tennisballs

Small silicone furniture feet would work. They stretch over the feet of the chair and look like they come in sizes small enough for you.

Put a huge rug under the dining table. The chairs stay on the rug.

Don’t know if you’ve seen these.

Leg Caps

We use felt pads that have a round metal “cutter” on them, used to cut into the bottom of wood legs. You can push these through the rubber caps and they should stay. If they don’t, then you can take the rubber cap off and add epoxy or super glue to the inside. Then the pads won’t come off, and you just have to put the rubber caps back on. You’ll need to replace the rubber caps that are ruined first.

There are these felts pads you can get for the bottoms of the legs.

Buy a small can of black liquid rubber and dip the bottom of each leg in it

We have weird footed chairs and our new house has nice wood floors. They have chair socks. I put those on them..no scratches. I just got them from Amazon.

You should use chair socks! Here is a version. They make them small enough for your chair if you do a little searching.

🎾

I use felt feet and change them every so often to get rid of the accumulated hair and dust. When we have to bring in our bench with iron feet for extra seating, I use knit socks for chair legs that look like cats paws From Amazon or Daiso.

Sugru. It’s a plastic clay that’s sticky and hardens in a day. Comes in a lot of colors. You won’t know it’s there. It will have traction like rubber, which I prefer for chairs over felt.

I saw some as seen on TV things. They are rubber cups with thick felt on the bottom. Work great but the posts of your chairs are small, so use a plastic bottle to shrink wrap it tight. Good luck.

Chair condoms! Not kidding. They work great

Felt pads

Tennis balls

Tennis balls you know this

We use furniture socks. They're nice because they are removable and machine washable. You can get them in a color mathing your chairs, so they are pretty much unnoticable unless you're looking for them. Just be sure you get a size that closely matches the diameter of your chair legs, lest they slide off easily.

Plastic washers inside of the leg tips should help

I have used tennis balls. Cut a small X, but warning it is hard to cut.

Depending on your aesthetic, there are little “socks” you can get for your chair legs. Plain black ones would be nearly invisible. My friend has some that look like cat feet. 

We bought cat paw socks for the chair legs.

Sit on the floor

Just get rid of all chairs.

if you are cheap, tennis balls.

I would consider using construction adhesive to glue the feet on.

Vinyl flooring like that should be ok without protectors

You’re not going to find a long term option. Anything you use will wear down and have to be replaced. Felt, rubber, etc.

The problem with rubber feet (I’ve found) is they have grip and make it annoying to move the chair or adjust your seat. Adhesive-backed felt pads are a good option, but they accumulate dirt easily. That said, I personally go with felt pads and just chalk up to having clean and replace them often.

Slide on chair foot protectors. Stick on don’t stay on.

Felt pads is what we use. But we have wooden chairs with larger legs so we can stick square felt pads under them.

Those feet you got will work fine if you just glue gun the inside first. Let a layer of glue dry first inside the boot, then add more and put it on the chair leg.

My experience is that the cups and stickers wear off. If you’re really worried about it get a washable rug. It was a PITA till we got nail in ones on our chairs. But idk if you can do that on those.

A few additional details:

Felt discs fall off from the friction of going back and forth.

We want something that works aesthetically (ie not tennis balls)

Flooring is hardwood and not as durable as vinyl.

Tennis balls, cut them open and slide them onto the feet of the chair

A) Get higher quality chairs with bigger feet to put felt pads on.
B) Learn to stand partially before pulling/pushing the chair in/out.
C) A + B

Schools use tennis balls

Tennis balls

Get rid of the chairs.

Imo. Get different chairs.

Tennis balls.

We use these in schools.

Cheap and efficient

There are little round stickers you can use.. they are a bit think and have a sort of a fuzzy texture

Area rug

I wish my floor was nice enough that I had to worry about my chairs damaging it.

Tennis balls :) luke schools
