FAQs
What is the main purpose of these castor cups?
The main purpose is to protect light-colored flooring from scratches, scuffs, and indentations caused by the legs or castors of furniture, especially when it's moved.
What material is the non-slip base made of?
The non-slip base is made of TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber), which provides grip and stability.
How large of a furniture leg can these cups accommodate?
These castor cups are designed for furniture legs or castors up to 44mm in diameter or base size.
Are these suitable for dark-colored flooring?
They are primarily designed for protecting light-colored flooring. While they might offer some protection on dark floors, their effectiveness in preventing visible marks might vary compared to light surfaces.
Can I use these with very heavy furniture like a grand piano?
These castor cups are intended for everyday furniture use. For extremely heavy items, it's recommended to check the specific weight capacity or opt for heavy-duty furniture protectors designed for such loads.
How do I clean the castor cups?
You can clean them with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh or abrasive cleaning chemicals.
What is the color and finish of these castor cups?
They are brown and feature a light wood grain effect.
Troubleshooting
Castor cup doesn't stay in place
Ensure the furniture leg is properly seated within the cup. If the furniture is extremely heavy, the cup might shift; consider a product with a higher weight rating if available or ensure the floor surface is level.
The wood grain effect doesn't match my decor
These cups are designed for function and offer a subtle aesthetic. If the appearance is critical, consider placing them on the underside of furniture where they are less visible, or look for castor cups in a color that better suits your style.
Furniture feels wobbly after placing cups
Check that the castor cup is positioned correctly on a flat surface and that all furniture legs are evenly seated. Ensure the floor itself is level. The 44mm size might not be appropriate for very uneven leg bases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
