Product Overview
Custom adhesive rubber feet attach a rubber contact surface to a product base without a screw hole. The selected 3M adhesive grade should suit the base material, surface finish, and service conditions. The rubber outline and installed height can then be coordinated with the supporting layout.
Prepare the mounting area before placing the foot. Dust, oil, or old adhesive residue can reduce the effective bonded area, while a textured or recessed base may require a specific fit assessment. Position the foot accurately and follow the application conditions appropriate to the chosen adhesive. Avoid touching the bonding surface unnecessarily during placement.
Evaluate the complete product after the feet are fitted. Their heights and positions should let the intended contact faces meet the supporting surface without rocking. A foot edge that protrudes beyond the base may be caught during movement. Keep the lower contact face clean and inspect the bond if the foot begins to shift. Replacement should use the correct rubber geometry and adhesive configuration rather than assume all adhesive backed feet behave the same way.
- Material options
- Custom rubber compound and color, selected for the contact conditions and required geometry.
- Hardness range
- 30–90 Shore A for rubber. Assess the grade against this fit requirement: A foot edge that protrudes beyond the base may be caught during movement.
- Custom profile & fit
- The rubber outline and installed height can then be coordinated with the supporting layout.
- Assembly considerations
- Dust, oil, or old adhesive residue can reduce the effective bonded area, while a textured or recessed base may require a specific fit assessment.
- Design check
- Keep the lower contact face clean and inspect the bond if the foot begins to shift.

Ordering this custom component
Can the shape be adjusted to my mating parts?
Yes. Show the receiving opening, contact surfaces and clearance limits. We can review the dimensions and retaining features around the intended fit.
Which details should be agreed before tooling?
Agree the critical dimensions, material, hardness, visible surfaces and sample requirements. Explain how the part is installed and which interfaces control its function.
Can a sample help define the replacement?
A sample can help explain the structure. Compare it with the assembly because wear, swelling or compression may have changed its original dimensions.
How is the quotation for this part determined?
The material, part geometry, tooling, quantity and finishing affect the quotation. Include the intended batch size and delivery destination when describing your requirements.
