What Is a Leveling Mount?

Leveling mounts, often referred to as leveling feet or adjustable feet, are hardware components used to provide stability and balance to equipment or machinery. They are particularly valuable in situations where surfaces may be uneven, and precise leveling is required for optimal functionality.


The Two Different Types of Leveling Mounts

Leveling mounts come in two primary types:

  • Fixed Leveling Mounts: Fixed mounts offer a stable and non-adjustable base. They are suitable for applications where the equipment does not need frequent repositioning or leveling adjustments.
  • Adjustable Leveling Mounts: Adjustable mounts feature a mechanism that allows users to fine-tune the height and level of the equipment. These mounts are ideal for situations where frequent adjustments are necessary to maintain stability and balance.

The Basics of Leveling Mounts

Leveling mounts are composed of several key elements:

  • Base: The base of the leveling mount is in direct contact with the surface and provides stability.
  • Stem: The stem connects the base to the leveling pad or foot and is responsible for adjusting the height of the mount.
  • Leveling Pad or Foot: The leveling pad or foot is the component that makes contact with the equipment or machinery, providing a stable and level surface.

Leveling Pads

Leveling pads are optional accessories that can be added to leveling mounts to provide additional support and protection for both the mount and the equipment. They are particularly useful in applications where the equipment may vibrate or where there is a need to protect sensitive flooring surfaces.
