| The
ForeverGlide® has been developed to eliminate a major nuisance problem in the outdoor
patio furniture marketplace. For some 50 years, quality iron patio furniture has been
manufactured and distributed around the world. Amazingly, the functional design components
have remained the same: a typical iron mesh seat and back with solid iron legs. At the end
of these millions of iron legs, an inverted steel cup is welded more or less
horizontally in place. From the factory, a thin plastic cup is pressed up into the
confines of this outer, inverted steel cup providing only a thin wear layer that
"mirrors" whatever position the steel cup was welded in.
The inconsistency and inaccuracy
of the factory weld coupled with the now "tipped" glide is only part of
the problem! When the furniture is put to use, the uneven surface on virtually
anyones patio, deck or pavers, multiplies the wear and failure. As pressure is
exerted downward, the plastic cup glide distorts further grinding through whatever
portion is making contact as the furniture moves around on the abrasive, uneven
floor. The result is worn-through glides that now freely pop out. The steel cup that once
housed the glide, begins scraping and gouging, damaging expensive decks and floors,
creating screeches much like the foreboding fingernails-down-the-chalkboard! All this
usually occurs within the first season or two... this expensive, lifetime-rated furniture
ends up causing damage, undue displeasure and expense.
Now there is a solution! Max Techs
revolutionary Forever Glide addresses and SOLVES all these problems at once! It is a
reinforced engineering grade plastic disc that is affixed with a thick, high density, foam
tape. This industrial-grade double stick equalizer, shaped like a donut, allows for
several unique benefits. The cut-out provides room for the internal "weld blob"
underneath the metal cup of the chair. Next, it becomes the self-leveling cushion to
automatically "float" and conform to the chairs imperfections and the
continually changing surfaces of the outdoor realm. Finally, it creates the flexible bond
to the new, thick wear layer of the Forever Glide.
Now we have complete, continuous contact of a
safe, comfortable and quiet wear surface with essentially any deck or patio surface
that could be encountered. In addition, the wearing surface in contact is approximately
1/8" thick instead of just a few thousandths...leading to many years of
satisfied, safe use.
The result is a customer that is finally
really happy with their patio furniture: happy because they arent wobbling whenever
they sit down; happy that their decks arent getting shredded; happy that someone has
made something to make their life a little easier and more maintenance free....
Comfortable, happy, satisfied customers is what we are all about. |
