What Is a Table Accessorie?
Table accessories are add-on components that adapt a fixed workbench, shop table or production table for mobility, ergonomics, storage or protection without replacing the table itself. Bolt-on caster kits convert a stationary table to mobile, typically rated by combined load capacity across all casters and specified as swivel, rigid, or a mix for controlled directional rolling.
Leg levelers and glides correct for uneven floors and protect legs from moisture wicking on concrete, while edge trim and corner bumpers reduce impact damage to both the table and personnel working close to its perimeter. Under-table shelving and power strips add functional capacity without consuming additional floor footprint, a common retrofit as workstation needs evolve after the original table purchase.

| Spec | What It Means | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Load Capacity | Rated per accessory (caster set, leveler, shelf) | Must be sized to the table's fully loaded weight, not just the empty table weight |
| Mounting Method | Bolt-on, weld-on, friction-fit, adhesive | Determines whether retrofit is possible without drilling or welding the existing frame |
| Material | Steel, zinc-plated, polyurethane, rubber | Affects load rating, floor protection and chemical/oil resistance in shop environments |
| Caster Configuration | All-swivel, rigid/swivel mix, locking | Locking casters hold position during work; rigid casters improve straight-line tracking |
| Compatibility | Leg diameter, table frame type, T-slot size | Accessories must match the specific table's leg or frame dimensions to fit properly |

FAQ
Table Accessories Questions, Answered
Will caster kits fit any workbench?
Caster kits are sized to a specific leg diameter or base plate pattern, so confirm your table's leg dimensions before ordering. Bolt-on kits with adjustable base plates offer the widest compatibility; kits designed for a specific leg profile fit only tables using that same leg style.
How do I size the load capacity for a caster kit?
Add the table's own weight to the maximum expected load it will carry, then divide by the number of casters that will bear weight — but don't simply divide evenly, since uneven floors or off-center loads can concentrate more weight on fewer casters. Choose casters rated with margin above the calculated per-caster load, not exactly at it.
What's the difference between leg levelers and leg glides?
Leg levelers are threaded and adjustable, allowing fine height correction to compensate for an uneven floor and keep the table top level. Glides are typically fixed-height, non-adjustable pads that protect the leg bottom and floor surface but don't correct for unevenness.
Can I add shelving under an existing table without drilling into the top?
Many under-table shelf kits clamp or bolt to the leg frame rather than the tabletop itself, so no holes need to be drilled into the work surface. Confirm the shelf kit's mounting method matches your table's leg or frame style before ordering.
Do power strips mounted under tables need to be rated for the environment?
Yes. In shop or industrial settings with dust, oil mist, or occasional washdown, choose a power strip with an appropriate ingress protection rating and metal housing rather than a standard office-grade strip, which isn't built for that exposure.
