Get great value for money with the very first Distel steel climbing spikes.
These lightweight, rigid and durable steel climbing spikes will perform under all conditions you expose them to.
Made in Germany
The lightest steel climbing spikes on the market allow you to do the job quickly and safely:
-
Lightweight: Weighing just approx. 2.4 kg (5.3 lb) per pair, the Distel Steel spikes are the lightest on the market.
-
Maximum stability: Strong and rigid laser-cut steel construction for maximum stability and durability.
-
Well protected: Powder-coated rail with textured black paint that increases impact and scratch resistance.
-
Sustainably produced: Modern production techniques, short and preferably regional supply chains, fair working conditions in the German production facility and a high-quality, durable product with available spare parts for easy maintenance ensure a minimal ecological footprint.
Pads Classic
-
Fits tightly around the leg and in the shell thanks to vertical cuts.
-
Optimal fit in the shell and thus on the user's leg, which provides high comfort.
-
17 mm (0.67") thick foam pad cushions all pressure points and impacts.
Spikes with black Teflon (PTFE) coating
-
High-quality precision-cast steel from Southern Germany.
-
Special heat treatment provides a structure with a perfect balance between hardness and toughness.
-
Rockwell C hardness (HRC): 50.
-
PTFE (known as Teflon) is a highly developed plastic that drastically reduces friction and torque, e.g. in aluminum fittings. This makes it easier to release the spike from the wood and saves both strength and strain.
-
Pre-sharpened, extremely sharp spikes are ready to use immediately.
