Our New & Improved Hairpin Leg Floor ProtectorsOur hairpin legs have an exciting new feet-ure!Introducing our new hairpin leg floor protectors.Our elite rubber feet slip neatly on the bottom of your hairpin legs. Ideal to protect delicate wood floors, and for extra grip on slippery surfaces.Why Use Rustic Safeguard Hairpin Leg Floor Protectors?We came up with the unique idea for the feet, when our close friends, Delijah & Willa made their first hairpin leg table. They wanted to place it on their new oak wood floors...YIKES!They wanted to avoid scratching their new floors and didn't want the metal edges marking up the expensive woodThe challenge was set and we went to work! We wanted to design a protective solution that was friendly to floors, easy on the eyes, fitting easily on both 2 and 3 rod hairpin legs, and didn't interfere with the modern aesthetic of the table.How We Did It? We made a few 3D-printed designs and several pro-toe-types (LOL)Once we were happy, we vacuum casted in a number of different materials to find the best one for the job.Our goals were accomplished when we found a type of rubber that gave these protectors a great mix of durability, strength, and aesthetics. All the while remaining gentle on delicate floors.After a few small tweaks and iterations, we moved forward to full production and now have a great result!The best part?!? This entire process was long and time consuming but it's truly making a pivotal difference for those with delicate floors!
