    Non-slip material for workbench feet

    I need recomendations for a non-slip material I can glue to the feet of my workbench to help resist movement. The workbench is 2" maple and quite heavy but the garage floor is a rolled vinyl diamond plate material. Any ideas? I tried carpet underlayment but that didn't work as well as I would like.

    Maybe something like flex seal or plastidip would work, if that doesn't work tool box drawer liners or you could frame the feet with wood that is attached to the floor.

    My Lovely Bride has several kitchen things made of silicone that really grip including some jar openers. If thin enough for you something like this might but cut to fit under the legs. These are .2" thick

    You might find some thinner ones somewhere, perhaps at Walmart.

    Thanks for the response. I tried something similar and it just doesn't have the shear strenght, it jusr shredded over a ahort time.

    Double-sided tape?
