    Quoted from 3pinballs:

    Hate the rubber ones as its hard to slide game.

    haha, thats exactly why I like the rubber ones.

    Quoted from 3pinballs:

    It's nice to slide them over rather than pick them up...have to slide in order to get to another machine.

    Thats when i put furniture sliders on..

    Quoted from DrJoe:

    Rubber can mark a floor. Molded polyurethane does NOT mark any surface and comes in a variety of colors. PAPA uses these at ReplayFX. Made by Super-Bands.

    Quoted from DrJoe:

    Different parts. Super-Bands products are made in the USA out of polyurethane. This links to off-shore-made silicone.

    How do you know? There is no mention of Super-Band in either of those descriptions. And not sure how you can assume these are made in China while others arent...

    Pinballlife.com is legit for sure for products.

    Quoted from Yelobird:

    Huge thanks to whoever originally recommended the felt pads to the rubber feet. Love the rubber feet but anything so much as sliding the game 1" left or right is virtually impossible on our epoxy floor. They stick like glue lol. Amazon 2" felt pads were only like $8 for 50 pieces. Worlds better thanks![quoted image]

    What is the point of having rubber and felt? Couldnt you just put the felt under the feet of the machine as they come?

    Quoted from DrJoe:

    Because I make them and sell them through these distributors. Pinball Life sells them too.

    So you make the Super-Band brand? Sorry, not following. Regardless, I dont really care. If something is cheaper and essentially the same quality, thats what im going to go for.

    Quoted from Yelobird:

    Primarily because I already have the rubber feet on 30 games. Plus from previous results the metal feet tend to simply crush the felt in short order. Just glad a simple low cost solution was suggested.

    Gotcha. Was just curious. Figured there was a logical reason for it haha.
