Manfrotto Rubber Feet
Worst case is that you will not find rubber feet for your Manfrotto,as I could not for my Manfrotto monopod.
Home Depot, to the rescue. Yes, they actually had the exact replacement, in a 2 pack.

I've been away from the list for a little while, so I don't know if you were able to find your spare rubber feet, but you could try contacting Bogen's parts department directly:
P: (201) 818-9500 x244 E-mail: parts@bogenimaging.com They often still stock parts for discontinued items or will have a virtually identical part for a newer item. Yours, Hoi |

I went into the section where they have rubber feet, for chairs, got the exact size to fit my Mafrotto monopod. It came in a two pack, so I should have a spare for a long time.
I use the monopod a lot, on all kinds of surfaces, and these rubber feet are designed for a lot of wear and tear. I am still using my first one, and it has been over a year since it was slipped on, so, I would say a good bargain. Hope you find what you need.

Digging through the equipment archive yesterday, and I found my wifes Bogen tripod, can't remember the model. This unit did not have rubber feet, but had the metal cleats, that screw down, through the rubber/hard plastic. The end of the tripod leg has a rubber shoe, which the screw comes out of. This "shoe" is on there to keep out any dirt/debris, when the
cleats are used.
