Plastic feet for Pentas

11 replies
Does anyone know where I can find replacement plastic feet for the Beolab Pentas? I’m missing a bunch. They look like they might be common items.

Hello

think you can search in DIY furniture shops or IKEA.

Have a nice day

For me it was hard to find because the plastic foot is overmolded onto the bolt.

I ended up designing a plastic foot and made them on a 3D printer and used a normal socket cap bolt through the middle.

Clear - that's what I was referring to and what I ended up cloning. 

When I bought my Pentas, some of the plastic feet were busted off and as a result the column wasn't very stable on a carpeted floor. I looked for suitable replacements but couldn't find any so I just modeled a 'foot' and printed 10 of them, picked up some bolts on the way home. 1 day project.

I uploaded the model to Shapeways so people could buy them (don't worry, I'm not the one price gouging here, thank Shapeways).

If you would like the model of the foot for yourself to try and print on your own, just let me know and I'll try to dig it up and pass it on.

Unfortunately I don't remember the bolt I used specifically. Project was from a while ago.

Ok so clearly I’m missing something. I don’t see how a cubic piece in plastic is meant to replace a little circular rubber button. It’s just supposed to be a little push on part that goes on the end of the actual foot. I guess I’m just looking for the little caps, not the whole foot.

No it was me who was missing something - I didn't realize there was an optional soft rubber version 😁 My mistake. That I don't have experience with.

I found a near perfect replacement for the little rubber feet. They’re adhesive rather than mechanical in nature, but a very good replacement.

I must have several original unused plastic feet laying here somewhere. They came with the set I bought in 1999. A spare set of feet.

I could measure them and print them with a more flexible filament, like a TPU version.
