rubber pads

Soft protective feet

Rubber pads are flat pieces of rubber used as cushioning, grip, or protection.

They absorb impact under equipment, prevent slipping beneath furniture legs, or protect surfaces from scratches: Put rubber pads under the washing machine to reduce vibration.

The term covers everything from industrial shock absorbers to small adhesive bumpers on cabinet doors.
