Our Tower Castor Glides are a fixed alternative to castor wheels, used widely in office furniture manufacturing and retrofitting. They allow furniture to remain stable without compromising movement on soft or medium surfaces such as carpet or vinyl.

What are Tower Castor Glides?

Tower Castor Glides are non-rolling furniture components designed to replace standard castor wheels. Manufactured from a strong polyamide plastic and paired with a steel stud, they are designed to fix securely into furniture frames, offering reliable support and limited surface drag. Commonly fitted during production or as a replacement, these glides provide a balance of movement and stability, particularly suited to applications where fixed positioning is required but occasional repositioning is beneficial.

• Made from durable polyamide plastic and steel
• Designed as a fixed alternative to rolling castors
• Suitable for soft and medium flooring types
• High quality manufacturing for lasting performance
• Compatible with common stem sizes such as 10mm and 11mm
