What do you call the thing that you put on top of a table to put a glass top on top of it?

I'm looking for the thing that you put on like the corner of a table that holds the glass on top of the the table so it doesn't move around the table. I'm thinking its called table spacers but when I Google it, I don't get anything at all. I need some that are like half an inch in diameter.

Thanks!

Hahhahahaha.............. Ok, if you have a wooded table w/ a glass on top of it. What do you call the spacers that you put in between the table and the glass so the glass can't move all over the place?

I think KayGee got it right now but when I search for suction cups, nothing use comes up. You guys know where I can buy it online?

You might want to consider saying, "if you have a wooden table with a glass top" it just might help make your question go somewhere.
BTW, I think what you might be looking for is something like rubber / silicon pads.

The term you're looking for is Bumpons...they're rubber/silicone spacers or feet that cushion the glass and keep it from moving.

Gotta be careful which ones you get however, as they come in a wide variety of sizes, thicknesses and colors.

A google search on that term will give you lots of sites/info.

Very cool. I never knew there was a term for those things, should have figured that 3M would make a ton of them.

Just go down to home depot. They'll have a variety of options lined up. I think they keep it near the hardware and doorknobs. Somewhere around those aisle. Or maybe its in the aisle with the hinges....
