Armor II Whisper Glide

Built for strength, durability and corrosion resistance.
Our exclusive tip formulation is 47% more dense than standard glide material. Combined with its unique "plow" design, it performed with significantly less floor markings in tests, at up to 5 times the cycles.
Documented results show that Columbia's new Armor II glide is 28% quieter than the industry standard nylon and steel glides.
Armor II glide recommended for VCT floor and our Armor Glide for carpeted floor.
Tested and proven to:
- Outperforms all other glides in reducing or eliminating scratches and marring on VCT tile floors.
- Reduce noise levels in classrooms associated with moving chairs and desks.
- Prevent accidental removal of glide by using a high shoulder design along with case hardened steel internal gripper.
- With a 40° swivel base, provides greater stability than standard glides at only 25°.
- Repel wax, detergents, soil, and water because the tip incorporates special lubricant release agents.
Columbia offers a wide array of glide options for our Omnia cantilever desks and chairs. Shipped standard with our TPR (Thermo Plastic Rubber) glide on rear and armor glide on front. Choose options of steel, felt or TPR. Armor (nylon) glides on front and rear recommended for carpeted floors.
