Would it be safe to hook on to a glass table of 10 mm, less than half an inch thick?

This is a wonderful little chair but I'm not sure about hooking it on to a glass table that small in width. We attached it on vacation to a table that was about 1" thick and that worked out fine. I guess it depends on how much the child weights too.

I am not sure but I don't know personally if I would even trust glass. We have ours hooked to granite and out son likes to wiggle and slap the granite. The chair is very sturdy when latched.

I don't think I would recommend that as our grandaughter likes to swing her legs and "kick" the wooden table. Don't think that would be good for glass, wood resists to stress and fatigue better than glass.

You might want to check with the manufacturer of the table to see if the glass would be strong enough to support the weight, but I'm guessing the chair would hold securely to most any table.

The default 100% safe answer is NO that is not safe. Though the table can most likely handle the torque and weight of your kiddo in the seat, it changes the physics just a bit when you snug the handles down on the glass like a vice. Supposing you install it on glass, you then have compression pressure on the glass in addition to the weight and torque of kiddo in the seat. Our kid would sometimes bounce around in the seat a little bit and bang on the table which in your case would cause a lot more stress on the glass (which doesn't give any clues that it is about to break), so I'd suggest not putting this seat on a glass table. I *might* reconsider if the glass were 25mm+ thick and if it were a smaller table, but when talking about the safety of my kid, I'd just avoid the situation 100% especially when you consider what could go wrong...

I used the legs on a circular table with a diameter smaller than your planned 2.5 feet. No concerns or worries here. I'd highly recommend these great legs! Best of luck on your project!

2" thick isn't a problem, the allowable depth for the bolts that hold it in place are just under 3". As for it being recessed, it depends. There are two bolts on the underside that would be about 1" from the edge of what you're attaching it to. The bolts have flat disks on the end that you screw up tight against the underside of the table. You could conceivably have each bolt at different depths since they operate independently. But, if they happen to hit on the edge of the recessed area where they can't be flat against the underside, then that would be a problem. This is a link to a pic I just took of mine so you have an idea of what you're dealing with. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bzfelt1twuPvVGJHUlFobndCU2M/edit?usp=sharing

I don't know for sure but the glass is pretty thin. I don't think I would try it.

Yes, not a problem at all, since the arm's pretty stiff. What may give is the attachment to the table, especially if you reposition it alot.

You would be safe to get something up to 4 1/2 inches, but nothing more, because of the framing. The glass sits down in, on the framing.

It would be a risky choice due to the combined weight of glass and wood. Personally, I'd be hesitant to use these clips with glass at all.

I have a good sized table lamp on mine. It's just an educated guess, but I'd say you're safe with 5-10 lbs. it could probably support more, but I wouldn't push the limits of the glass.

Depends on if there's a lip underneath the table, which would get in the way of the bracket attaching to the table. Works better on a straight side of the table as opposed to the curved end of the table too.

Mounting a small vise would be okay. Not sure if it would be solid enough. There could be some side to side . Clamping flat to the surface would be better. This is the best table I have found that is as portable. Hope this helps

You only need a small space for the table to be secure, but 2.5" might be too short. I can measure but I would say NO.

Up to 2 inches thick but you need at least a 1 inch lip from edge of table.

I would put at least 1/2" piece of plywood or any wood/plastic between the glass and the clamp side just to be safe.

You may be able to, my mother-in-law's table had a lip about 4" and we were able to angle the chair/clamps to get past the lip and secure to the actual table and it was fine.

As long as the lip at the edge of the table isn't too thick, I don't see why it wouldn't.

Yes. It has a thin layer of rubber-like material on both of the sides that would contact the glass (or whatever else it is being clamped to).

I suppose that would depend on how far out your hook extended. The glass is 11 inches in diameter.
