Product Information
Full details
Slipstick Gorillapads are universal furniture clips designed for anyone looking to prevent furniture from slipping, moving, or damaging hard floors. Their key benefit is providing a strong, non-slip grip while protecting surfaces. A potential consideration is that the adhesive option is not required, meaning users must decide whether to use it or rely on the pad's inherent grip.

FAQs
What sizes do Slipstick Gorillapads come in?
The product description specifies 2" round pads. While this guide focuses on the 2" round variant, Slipstick offers other sizes and variety packs. Please refer to specific product listings for other options.
Can these be used on carpet?
Gorillapads are specifically designed for hard floor surfaces. Their effectiveness on carpet is not guaranteed and may vary depending on carpet pile height and density.
How many pads are included?
This particular product includes 16 round non-slip pads and 16 adhesive holders.
Are the adhesive holders reusable?
The adhesive holders are single-use. Once removed, their adhesive strength is significantly reduced.
How thick are the pads?
The pads are 1/8" thick and can compress up to 1/4" thick under furniture weight.
What is the 'Performance Proof' construction?
It refers to the durable design featuring a 1/4" thick puncture-proof solid felt cushion core between specially formulated foam rubber outer layers for maximum traction and longevity.
Do I need to use the adhesive?
No, the adhesive is optional. The pads provide grip through their material and design even without the adhesive backing.
Troubleshooting
Furniture still slips slightly
Ensure the Gorillapad is properly centered under the furniture leg and that the floor surface is clean and dry. For maximum grip, consider using the adhesive option if not already employed.
Adhesive backing not holding well
Clean both the furniture leg and the adhesive backing of the holder thoroughly with a dry cloth. Ensure no dust or debris is present before reapplication. Allow the adhesive to bond for at least 24 hours before applying weight.
Pad appears to be compressing unevenly
Verify the weight is distributed evenly across the furniture. Ensure the pad is not exposed to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures, which could affect the foam rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Clean the furniture leg and the floor surface where the pad will be placed. For adhesive use, peel the backing from one of the included adhesive holders, affix it to the furniture leg, and then press a Gorillapad onto the adhesive. Alternatively, simply place the Gorillapad directly under the furniture leg without using the adhesive. Ensure the pad is centered for maximum stability.
Compatibility: Gorillapads are compatible with virtually all hard floor surfaces, including hardwood, laminate, tile, vinyl, linoleum, glass, marble, and concrete. They are suitable for use under furniture legs, sofa sections, tables, beds, chairs, decorative items, electronics, and aquariums.
Care: Wipe the pads with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid harsh chemicals, as they may degrade the foam rubber. If using the adhesive method, ensure the surface is clean and dry for optimal adhesion.
