Nicely made; goes onto M16 threaded hole easily. Nice wide foot that allows uneven surfaces. Contains hexagon near foot for easy adjustment.

I chose four of these feet to support and level a milling maching on an uneven concrete floor. The machine weighs about 250kg and four of the M12 size feet were more than up to the job. Mill is now dead level and rock solid. The only reason I haven't awarded 5 stars is that that in order to mount the feet through a clear hole, rather than a threaded one, M12 nuts are required which are not included. Nuts a cheap to buy, but it would have been nice if they were included.

Foot is tough plastic and is hollow underneath. Not quite sure why it has three M10 holes in it or that it would cope with the full 3/4 tonne load. However I'm using this for my portable telescope mount that has to be portable and not sink in to a muddy field. For this the 100mm foot is perfect being light weight and very stable.
Response from Castors Unlimited:
Not sure why only 3 stars given? The holes are to allow the foot to be bolted or screwed to a concrete or other surface. As described in the listing we can supply bungs to fill the holes. This product is used for all sorts of applications but has been weight tested to the weights quoted. This product is often used for conveyor belt systems as so needs to be robust and take significant weight. Thanks for your feedback & happy star gazing!
