Albert B.'s Review of Helinox Ball Feet

Received both sizes today for my Helinox products. They come in sets of 4.
UPC Number 8 809272 094043 is for Helinox products with SMALLER aluminum legs. It is about a 2 inch ball, and has a mounting hole that is 3/4 inch in diameter by about 1inch deep. It is rounded at the bottom to fit the contour on the hard plastic feet that come on the legs. It works great on the legs on my Cot Max Convertible. I needed 4 sets to do all 16 legs.
UPC Number 8 809272 098553 is for Helinox products with LARGER aluminum legs. It is about a 2 inch ball, and has a mounting hole that is 1 inch in diameter by about 1 inch deep. It is rounded at the bottom to fit the contour on the hard plastic feet that come on the legs. It works great on the larger diameter legs on my SUNSET CHAIRs.
They grip hard floors better than the hard plastic feet, making my cot stay in place and quieter when I move around on it at night. On the chair they quadruple the surface area per leg and thus should provide a great deal more flotation on soft surfaces. Though, not enough flotation to help on snow. They also, provide a greater level of puncture resistance to tent floors. The feet are made of a hard silicone that is flexible. Installing them takes a little effort to get them completely seated. They grip the original feet well and stay in place when moving my chair or cot. I was able to get the Sunset chair back in the carrying bag it came with with the feet on. It was a much tighter fit though. Leaving them on the 16 Cot Legs requires a larger storage sack. I haven't sized that yet.
