FAQs
Are these spike feet compatible with the standard Peak Design Travel Tripod?
No, these spike feet are specifically designed for the Peak Design Pro Tripod - Pro Lite model only. They are not compatible with the Travel Tripod or other models.
How do I install the spike feet?
Simply unscrew the existing standard feet from your Pro Lite tripod legs and screw in the spike feet until they are secure. No tools are required.
What type of surfaces are these spike feet best for?
They are best for soft, loose, or slippery surfaces such as grass, mud, soil, and sand where standard rubber feet may not provide sufficient grip.
Can I use these spike feet on hard surfaces like concrete?
It is not recommended to use them on very hard surfaces like concrete or rock, as the sharp points may damage the surface or become damaged themselves. They are designed for softer ground.
How many spike feet are included in a set?
This product is a set of three replacement spike feet, intended to replace all standard feet on a single tripod.
Do the spike feet add significant weight to the tripod?
The spike feet are made from stainless steel and are designed to be lightweight, adding minimal extra weight to maintain the portability of the Pro Lite tripod.
Troubleshooting
Spike feet are difficult to screw on/off
Ensure you are using the correct Pro Lite tripod model. Check for any debris in the tripod leg threads or on the spike feet threads. Screw them on gently and straight to avoid cross-threading.
Tripod still feels unstable
Verify that all three spike feet are fully tightened. Ensure the terrain is not excessively uneven or dangerously loose. The spike feet enhance grip but cannot overcome extreme topographical challenges.
Spikes appear to be rusting
While made of stainless steel, prolonged exposure to corrosive elements without cleaning can affect the finish. Clean and dry the spikes thoroughly after each use, especially in saltwater or highly acidic environments.
