STAGE GLIDE PERFORMANCE CASTERS (SET OF 5)

Controlled mobility for performance environments • ABS-protected rubber compound • Zero floor marking • Stage-safe design • Broadcast-quiet operation • Professional venue protection

PRECISION CONTROL MEETS FLOOR PROTECTION

Stage environments demand a different kind of mobility. You need casters that roll smoothly across performance surfaces without the aggressive all-terrain capability of tour wheels. You need movement that's controlled, predictable, and absolutely floor-safe. Stage Glide casters are engineered for venues where floor protection is paramount—broadcast studios, performance stages, houses of worship, theaters—anywhere that expensive flooring meets professional production.

WHAT STAGE GLIDE CASTERS DELIVER:

ABS Housing Protection: Engineered polymer cover prevents any metal-to-floor contact—zero risk of scratches or marks on delicate surfaces
Rubber Compound Tread: Soft durometer rubber provides smooth, controlled movement without the aggressive grip of tour casters
Broadcast-Quiet Operation: Near-silent rolling perfect for live recording, broadcast studios, and performance venues where noise matters
Precision Movement: Optimized swivel resistance provides controlled positioning without the hyper-mobility of tour casters
Multi-Surface Safe: Works on hardwood stages, Marley floors, broadcast carpeting, painted concrete—any surface that needs protection
Stage-Weight Construction: Professional-grade components support working loads while maintaining floor-safe design priorities

Here's the critical distinction: TourMax casters are built for obstacle crushing and all-terrain mobility. Office casters prioritize smooth studio floors. Stage Glide casters are engineered for controlled movement in performance environments where floor protection is non-negotiable. When you're working on a $50,000 stage floor or in a broadcast studio with specialized flooring, you need casters that respect the venue while providing professional mobility.

WHEN STAGE GLIDE CASTERS ARE ESSENTIAL:

  • Performance stages: Theaters, concert halls, recital venues where floor damage means expensive refinishing
  • Broadcast studios: TV studios, radio booths, podcast facilities requiring silent operation and floor protection
  • Houses of worship: Sanctuaries, altars, choir lofts with delicate wood or specialty flooring
  • Recording studios: Control rooms where quiet operation matters more than cable-crushing capability
  • Corporate boardrooms: Executive spaces with premium hardwood or specialty flooring requiring absolute protection
  • Dance/rehearsal studios: Marley floors, sprung wood systems that can't tolerate aggressive casters
  • Museum/gallery spaces: Historic floors, art installations where preservation trumps mobility
  • Instrument performance: When seated at pianos, organs, or orchestral positions requiring subtle repositioning

The Stage Glide design philosophy is simple: provide smooth, controlled mobility while treating every floor surface like it's irreplaceable. Because in many venues, it is. The ABS housing eliminates any possibility of metal contact, the rubber compound provides grip without aggression, and the overall design prioritizes venue protection over extreme mobility. This is mobility engineered for permanent installations and prestigious venues.

STAGE GLIDE POSITIONING:
When floor protection and quiet operation are non-negotiable. When you need professional mobility without aggressive all-terrain capability. When the venue matters as much as the performance. Stage Glide: Respectful mobility for prestigious environments.

THE THREE-CASTER STRATEGY: Many professionals maintain all three caster types and swap based on venue. Office casters for dedicated studio work. TourMax for touring and cable-heavy environments. Stage Glide for broadcast, performance venues, and anywhere floor protection is critical. 5-minute swap, infinite venue adaptability.

ABS HOUSING: ENGINEERED FLOOR PROTECTION

The defining feature of Stage Glide casters is the ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) protective housing. This isn't just a cosmetic cover—it's an engineered barrier between your chair's metal components and expensive venue flooring. Every potential contact point is protected by impact-resistant polymer.

ABS HOUSING METAL RUBBER PROTECTED PROTECTED

100% METAL-FREE FLOOR CONTACT

The ABS housing completely encapsulates all metal components. Only the soft rubber tread and smooth ABS polymer touch your floors. Zero possibility of scratches, marks, or damage from metal edges, swivel mechanisms, or mounting hardware.

ABS HOUSING BENEFITS:

  • Impact protection: ABS polymer absorbs bumps and contact that would otherwise transfer to flooring
  • Chemical resistance: Resists cleaning products, stage treatments, and environmental exposure
  • Temperature stability: Maintains properties from cold venues to hot stage lights
  • Smooth edges: Molded design eliminates sharp edges that could catch or scrape
  • Visual indicator: Black ABS housing makes it obvious these are floor-safe casters
  • Structural integrity: Engineering-grade polymer supports professional loads without deformation

This design philosophy extends throughout the caster. The rubber compound is specifically formulated for controlled movement rather than aggressive grip. It provides enough traction for stability without the "grabby" characteristics that can mark delicate floors. The result is mobility that respects the venue—smooth, predictable, and absolutely floor-safe.

STAGE GLIDE IN ACTION: PROFESSIONAL APPLICATIONS

BROADCAST STUDIOS:

TV and radio studios demand absolute silence and zero floor damage. Stage Glide casters deliver both. The rubber compound eliminates rolling noise that microphones would pick up. The ABS housing protects expensive studio flooring from any contact damage. When you're broadcasting live, there's no second take—equipment has to perform flawlessly and silently. Stage Glide: broadcast-grade mobility.

THEATER & PERFORMANCE VENUES:

Historic theaters often feature irreplaceable hardwood stages and specialty flooring. One scratch from a metal caster could mean thousands in refinishing costs. Stage Glide's ABS housing and soft rubber tread treat these surfaces with the respect they deserve. The controlled mobility also prevents unintended movement during performances—critical when you're mixing a live show or operating lighting controls.

HOUSES OF WORSHIP:

Sanctuaries combine acoustic sensitivity with floor preservation needs. Stage Glide casters excel in both areas. Silent operation ensures no disruption during services or recordings. The floor-safe design protects everything from historic wood to modern worship center flooring. Many worship tech directors choose Stage Glide specifically because it respects both the acoustic and aesthetic requirements of sacred spaces.

ORCHESTRAL & CLASSICAL VENUES:

Recording engineers working classical sessions need mobility without noise or floor damage. Concert halls feature some of the most expensive flooring in the performance world. Stage Glide casters allow engineers to reposition between takes without generating noise that sensitive classical microphones would capture. The controlled movement also prevents accidental rolling during critical recording moments.

DANCE STUDIOS & REHEARSAL SPACES:

Marley floors and sprung wood dance systems are extremely vulnerable to caster damage. Standard casters can leave marks, create depressions, or tear the Marley surface. Stage Glide's soft rubber compound and ABS protection make them safe for these specialized floors. Dance studio operators often specify Stage Glide casters to protect their significant flooring investments.

MUSEUM & GALLERY INSTALLATIONS:

When working around priceless artifacts and historic flooring, equipment must be museum-grade safe. Stage Glide casters meet conservation standards for floor protection. The controlled mobility prevents accidental movement near sensitive installations. Many museums specify Stage Glide for any wheeled equipment used in exhibition spaces.

CORPORATE BOARDROOMS & EXECUTIVE SPACES:

High-end corporate environments feature premium hardwood and designer flooring that demands protection. Stage Glide casters maintain professional aesthetics while ensuring zero floor damage. The quiet operation is essential for video conferences and presentations. When executives invest in $100,000 boardroom tables and flooring, they expect furniture that respects that investment.

CONTROLLED MOBILITY: THE STAGE GLIDE DIFFERENCE

TourMax casters are designed for maximum mobility—rolling over anything in their path. Office casters prioritize basic movement on smooth floors. Stage Glide occupies a unique position: controlled, predictable mobility that respects the environment. This isn't about obstacle crushing or hyper-mobility—it's about precise positioning with absolute floor safety.

STAGE GLIDE MOBILITY CHARACTERISTICS:

OPTIMIZED RESISTANCE
The swivel mechanism provides enough resistance to prevent unwanted movement without making repositioning difficult. You can make precise adjustments without the chair continuing to roll. Movement when you want it, stability when you don't.
PREDICTABLE ROLLING
The rubber compound provides consistent friction across all approved surfaces. No sudden grip changes between floor types. No unexpected acceleration on smooth surfaces. Professional predictability for critical positioning.
NO DRIFT
Unlike hyper-mobile tour casters, Stage Glide casters stay where you position them. The controlled resistance prevents drift on uneven floors or stages with slight grades. Critical for broadcast and performance work where unintended movement is unacceptable.
SMOOTH TRANSITIONS
Moving between floor types (carpet to wood, concrete to Marley) happens smoothly without the aggressive grip changes of tour casters. The moderate rubber durometer maintains consistent performance across surface transitions.

THE PERFORMANCE PARADOX: In many professional environments, less mobility is actually more functional. When you're operating a lighting console during a live performance, you don't want your chair rolling away when you stand up. When you're mixing a broadcast, you need stability more than extreme mobility. Stage Glide casters provide exactly the amount of movement needed for professional work—no more, no less. Controlled mobility is professional mobility.

INSTALLATION: SAME SIMPLE PROCESS

GRIP RINGS
IDENTICAL INSTALLATION • NO TOOLS REQUIRED
1
Remove existing casters

Turn chair upside down on soft surface. Pull each caster straight out with steady pressure. The grip ring compression fit releases cleanly.

2
Clean mounting sockets

Use compressed air or cloth to clean the five mounting sockets. Remove any debris for proper Stage Glide seating.

3
Install Stage Glide casters

Align each Stage Glide stem with socket. Push straight down firmly until you feel the grip rings engage with a solid "click." Same universal 7/16" × 1-3/8" grip ring stem as all Stealth casters.

4
Test controlled mobility

Flip chair upright and test movement. Stage Glide provides smooth, controlled rolling with no drift. Verify the ABS housing clears the floor properly. Installation complete in under 5 minutes.

NOTE ON LOCKING MECHANISM:
Stage Glide casters do not include a locking caster. The controlled resistance design provides inherent stability without locking. For applications requiring positive locking (elevated stages, critical broadcast positions), consider pairing with our standard office caster set that includes a locking option.

PROFESSIONAL TIP: Stage Glide casters are perfect for venue work where you're constantly moving between different floor types. Install them for a theater tour, broadcast residency, or any extended venue work. The floor protection gives venue managers confidence while the controlled mobility gives you professional positioning. Respectful mobility that venues appreciate.

The precision ball bearing swivel, controlled resistance, and floor-safe design represent purpose-built engineering for performance environments.

BUILT FOR VENUES, ENGINEERED FOR PROFESSIONALS

Stage Glide casters exist because venues have requirements that standard casters can't meet. When you're working in a historic theater, the venue manager cares more about floor preservation than your mobility needs. When you're in a broadcast studio, silence matters more than all-terrain capability. Stage Glide bridges that gap—professional mobility that venues actually welcome.

VENUE MANAGERS LOVE STAGE GLIDE BECAUSE:
Zero floor damage risk • Silent operation • Controlled movement • Professional appearance • No metal contact • Suitable for any performance surface

We developed Stage Glide after countless conversations with broadcast engineers, theater technicians, and venue managers. They needed a caster that prioritized floor protection without sacrificing professional functionality. The ABS housing eliminates their biggest fear—metal scratches on expensive flooring. The controlled mobility prevents unwanted movement during critical moments. The silent operation respects the acoustic requirements of performance spaces.

This is equipment designed for the realities of venue work. When you show up with Stage Glide casters, venue managers relax. They see the ABS protection, the soft rubber tread, the professional engineering. They know their floors are safe. That trust translates to better working relationships, return bookings, and professional reputation.

VENUE-GRADE ENGINEERING • FLOOR-SAFE DESIGN
When the venue matters as much as the performance, Stage Glide delivers professional mobility with absolute floor protection. Respectful engineering for prestigious environments.

STAGE GLIDE MAINTENANCE: PRESERVING PERFORMANCE

CLEAN THE ABS HOUSING

The ABS polymer housing can accumulate dust and stage debris. Wipe down regularly with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use mild soap solution. The ABS material resists most cleaning products, but avoid harsh solvents. Clean casters maintain professional appearance in prestigious venues.

INSPECT RUBBER TREAD

Check the rubber compound for wear, especially if used on rough surfaces. Look for uneven wear patterns that might indicate alignment issues. The soft durometer rubber will show wear faster than harder compounds—this is normal and ensures floor protection. Replace when tread depth affects smooth rolling.

CHECK SWIVEL MECHANISM

Stage Glide's controlled resistance should remain consistent. If swivel becomes too loose (loses control) or too tight (binds), the caster needs service. The precision ball bearing mechanism is sealed but can accumulate debris over time. Consistent swivel resistance is critical for controlled positioning.

VENUE-SPECIFIC CARE

Different venues require different maintenance. Theaters with rosin on stages need more frequent cleaning. Broadcast studios with carpet generate static—use anti-static spray on casters. Outdoor venues expose casters to weather—dry thoroughly after exposure. Match maintenance to venue demands for optimal performance.

The revolutionary Stealth™ chair was designed for professional music, lighting, and video engineers who sit at different heights working at consoles, desks, and control surfaces. Specifically produced in non-reflecting Midnight Black, the Stealth is perfect for FOH or side-stage locations—it won't reflect spotlights or light sources, keeping you invisible while you work your magic.

SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN ACTION

Watch how ZenWave™ motion technology supports your body in real working positions

CRITICAL SPECS & WHY THEY MATTER

MIDNIGHT BLACK NON-REFLECTIVE
Powder-coated finish

Why it matters: Stage lights, camera rigs, and console monitors won't catch reflections from your chair. Critical for FOH positions, broadcast facilities, and side-stage work where even small reflections can distract performers or create visual issues on camera. This isn't about aesthetics—it's about professional invisibility.

HIGH-STRENGTH FIBER-REINFORCED FRAME
Aerospace-grade materials

Why it matters: The same material used in military and aerospace applications. This isn't cheap plastic—it's engineered composite that flexes precisely to distribute weight while supporting up to 350 lbs. The frame's unique flexing properties work with the mesh tensioning to eliminate pressure points. This technology is what makes the ZenWave™ motion possible.

VARIABLE TENSION MESH SYSTEM
Zone-specific engineering

Why it matters: Not all mesh is created equal. The Stealth uses different tension zones across the seat—tighter where you need support, more flexible where you need give. This precise engineering disperses your weight optimally regardless of your body position. Combined with the fiber-reinforced frame, this creates the "floating" sensation that eliminates pressure points completely.

ACTIVE TILT™ SEAT PLATE
Patented pivot mechanism

Why it matters: When you lean forward to work, traditional chairs force your pelvis to rotate backward—stacking your spine unnaturally and crushing your discs. The Active Tilt seat pivots forward with you, maintaining proper pelvic position and natural spine curvature. This single feature prevents the 40%+ disc pressure increase that standard chairs create. You can lean into marathon sessions without cumulative damage.

PATENTED ZENWAVE™ MOTION TECHNOLOGY

The patented ZenWave™ motion provides unbinding, stress-free support as you lean forward naturally, protecting your lower back from further injury. The scientifically designed backrest moves with you to massage the lumbar area of your spine, increasing blood flow and nutrients to lower back muscles and intervertebral discs.

LIKE FLOATING ON WATER

The patented ZenWave™ motion technology allows you to float forward and backward without harmful pressure. Your body's natural movements are supported, not restricted.

ALIGN YOUR SPINE

The Active Tilt™ seat plate pivots smoothly forward and backward to promote proper body alignment, maintaining your natural lordosis curve in all positions.

FEEL SUPPORTED

The "Free-Float" backrest stays with you as you lean forward, giving continuous support. Unlike static backrests that abandon you when you work.

LEVER 1 LEVER 2
EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT

Customize your seat and backrest position with three lever adjustments. Height, tilt angle, and backrest tension—dial in your perfect working position.

BREATHE EASY

Cool breathable mesh prevents perspiration buildup and keeps your clothes looking fresh. No more sweat-soaked shirts during marathon sessions.

MASSAGE & HEALING

The floating backrest actively massages your lumbar region with every movement, increasing blood flow and nutrient delivery to discs and muscles.

The difference compounds over years. Engineers using Stealth Chairs report 60% less chronic back pain and 70% fewer days lost to injury compared to colleagues using traditional office chairs. Your chair is either extending your career or ending it.

THE CONVEX-SHAPED FLOATING BACKREST

Most backrests are concave—curved inward. This creates pressure points and forces unnatural posture. The Stealth backrest is convex—shaped to exactly match the natural outward curve of your lumbar spine.

Combined with the spring-loaded floating mechanism, the backrest "floats" with your movements as you lean forward and backward. This constant rolling motion actually massages the muscles in your lower back, increasing blood flow and hydrating your intervertebral discs.

The result? Your back muscles stay refreshed even during extended work sessions. Unlike any other chair in the world, Stealth models support you in traditional upright seated position OR forward-tilted declining position. For the first time in human existence, there's a better, healthier way to sit.

ABOUT STEALTH

Stealth ErgoLab

ABOUT STEALTH CHAIRS

Almost 40 years of engineering excellence • Trusted by the world's top studios, tours, and venues

THE PROBLEM EVERY ENGINEER FACES

Here's something they don't teach you in audio school: the wrong chair will end your career faster than bad monitoring.

Almost 40 years ago, ergonomic researchers made a discovery that should have changed everything. When you move from standing to sitting, the load on your intervertebral discs increases by over 40%. And when you lean forward to work—the position every engineer, lighting designer, and FOH tech spends hours in daily—traditional office chairs become torture devices.

"As you raise your thigh to sit, forcing your knee to a 90-degree angle, your pelvis rotates backward and tucks your tailbone under. This positioning stacks your intervertebral discs in a way that creates massive pressure on the discs, the nerves radiating from your spinal cord, and the connective tissues in your lower back. This isn't discomfort—it's cumulative trauma disorder. The kind of chronic back pain that ends careers."

— Ergonomic Research, 1985

Standard office chairs are designed for people who lean back and rest. You don't rest. You work. You lean forward over consoles. You reach for faders. You're locked in position for hours chasing a mix, programming a light show, or dialing in a broadcast feed. Every minute in the wrong chair compounds the damage.

We built Stealth Chairs because there wasn't a better way to sit—until now.

WHO WE ARE

ErgoLab has been an industry leader in ergonomically correct chair design and manufacturing for nearly four decades. We're not a furniture company that stumbled into pro audio—we're ergonomic specialists who understand your unique demands.

People are different. Not profound, but most chair manufacturers overlook this. At ErgoLab, we've embraced it by designing each chair to not only fit your body, but to specifically perform in your demanding work environment.

WHY WE EXIST

Sit in a Stealth Chair for any length of time and you'll realize it's like nothing you've sat in before. That's because we design for a specific combination of physical attributes and professional responsibilities.

Our exclusive designs provide unparalleled support that promotes proper posture during both resting and working activities, minimizes fatigue, reduces chronic back/neck/arm pain, and increases circulation. All of which help you perform at your best.

THE SCIENCE: PATENTED ZENWAVE™ TECHNOLOGY

ZenWave Technology Diagram

Using patented technology, we designed a chair that allows you to maintain the natural lordosis curve in your lower back while leaning forward—something impossible with traditional chairs.

The secret? A seat shell that pivots as you lean forward, combined with a convex-shaped, specially tensioned mesh surface. This eliminates harmful loading of the intervertebral discs in both active working and resting positions.

This technology also equalizes pressure from the seat surface, eliminating uncomfortable pressure points under your thighs, tailbone, and hips as you lean forward. You'll feel like you're floating.

THE FLOATING BACKREST THAT WORKS WITH YOU

While most backrests are designed with a concave shape (which creates pressure points), our backrest is shaped to exactly match the convex lumbar curve of your lower back. Combined with a spring-loaded floating mechanism, the backrest literally moves with you as you lean forward and backward.

Here's what makes this revolutionary:

The floating motion constantly rolls up and down your back, actually massaging the muscles to increase blood flow and hydration of the intervertebral discs. This massaging action keeps your back muscles refreshed even during marathon 16-hour sessions. Your back gets better as the day goes on, not worse.

Unlike any other chair in the world, Stealth models can be used in traditional upright seated position OR in a forward-tilted declining position. For the first time in human existence, there's a better, healthier way to sit.

We use the best upholstery, materials, and components to create a seating experience that will last a lifetime. In doing this sometimes certain parts may be back-ordered due to volume, waiting on shipments, and or customized options provided for you. You will always be notified provided by the email on file and or a phone call from a representative to let you know of the new lead time and or options to change the order to expedite delivery. 

Working with a dealer

When working with a dealer there may be times when your order is not updated by us. This is due to the dealer arranging the best delivery window and or notification has been paused to await other items from additional vendors, parts, and or items that you have placed on a larger order. You will be notified by your dealer on when or where these orders are from Stealth Chairs and if there is a delay the dealer can notify us or you of the expected time window based on the order. 

How does the Stealth Chair come and or is it assembled?

Each stool may be dissembled based on the best method of shipping. The stool will be detached from the base and cylinder to make shipping easy. Each stool takes an average of 5-15 minutes to assemble out of the box. We do offer fully assembled stools based on your order for additional costs and shipping. Please reach out after you place the order to have it fully assembled and you will receive a separate invoice for this service.
