What is the surface texture on the bottom of the legs? I want to put this on my tempered glass desk, and need good grip.

Smooth chrome metal -- You would have to devise your own strategy for fixing it. Short of a rolling ship or earth quake, once there is weight on it, it should not slide. The glass itself is heavy, and once there is a monitor on it, more weight is added.

I have it on a glass desk and have no problems with it. You can easily attach felt pads or flat rubber/plastic pads to them if you are concerned, which would help with it moving around due to getting bumped.

Very slightly textured, but I don't think the texturing would be the problem. The problem I think would be that the surface is a soft rubber which would make writing a bit iffy. The backside is plastic, with long strips of rubber for feet. I think the desk is just plastic. Not stuffed with anything, really. It's a rigid desk.

It does have a smooth surface but I wouldn't recommend it for a desk. It is sturdy enough but I don't think it is wide enough.

It has a smooth surface, almost like a finely sanded wood, but not as smooth as glass. I think it work would well as a desk.

It has a little texture and grip, its a soft plastic and will stay put on counter tops and such without sliding around.

It's kind of a plastic finish in a way but not slippery just smooth. The rest of it is really dense but it has some give to it. The glue pad on the back helps it stay in place really well.

The outer surface is textured but it is very subtle. It provides for a better grip. I really like these gloves since I can often get away with using them 2 or 3 days before they rip and wear out.

No, there is no grip surface on the board. It is all wood on both sides. That has not been a problem for us.

Hi, mine would do the same but i have thicker wood. I would suggest adding a spall sqaure piece of wood on the bottom between the desk and the clip, should keep it firmly gripped.

The glass is thick tempered glass, I haven't stood on it or anything but I'm confident that it will hold just about anything you want to place on it. It's a great desk expecially for the price I would totally get another if the time ever required it. You will be very pleased with it

Hello Paul, My experience with desk thickness is that should be fine. I operate a business and have bought dozens of various mounts. I clamped this one to a plate glass desktop (very thin) and a very thick desk top. The key to securing firmly is having enough lip for the clamp to slide unto and get a good grip. Some desks have no lip and some not very deep. If not a deep lip, the issue of course is not the top, but the underneath clamp or the knob. The knob may be to close to a side panel to turn. I some cases, I have trimmed down the knob to get closer. Which then requires using a tool to turn and get tight. But that has worked a number of times. I also have secured this mount through desktop by drilling when no lip. This is a fine mount for the price. Very sturdy. Best of Luck.

The top is a slightly textured laminated surface, which is the same as rest of desk. Personally, I like the feel and look of it.

The top is not that slippery but the bottom side wants to slip a little on my table. I have an old table that has been refinished and the surface is rather slick.

You can always view the specs for the desk on the item's page, I don't want to tell you the wrong thing. As for wear and tear I haven't the slightest idea whether it is painted or not. I have desk for a little while now and I have no scratch marks of any sort on the glass, which is tempered glass by the way. Sorry I am of no assistance here. What I can tell you however, is that you will not suffer buyer's remorse with this purchase. It is one of the best that I have seen or bought, and I am extremely contented with the look and function of my desk. So no disappointments here.

You will probably want to get some small rubber bumpers or felt dots that are easily available at Walmart, a Home Depot, Hobby Lobby, etc. to put on the bottom of the stand to ensure that your desk doesn't get scratched. The alternative is to put something under it like a towel or placemat.

None. I'm using a steelseries with no rubber grips on the bottom and I have no issues with it sliding.

I put this pad on a Pottery Barn glass top desk and it has not been an issue. Not sure if that helps but that's my only experience.
