Product Information

Full details

The Scan Professional Gel Knee Pads are designed for trade professionals and serious DIY enthusiasts who spend significant time kneeling on harsh surfaces like concrete, gravel, or laminate flooring. These pads provide a substantial benefit through their high-density 13mm cell foam and integrated 'Ultra' comfort gel inner pads, which effectively absorb pressure and reduce joint fatigue. While they offer industry-leading comfort and protection, users should note that the specialized strap system requires careful initial adjustment to ensure they remain secure during active movement.

FAQs

Are these suitable for all-day use?

Yes, the combination of 13mm high-density foam and the comfort gel inner is specifically engineered for all-day professional use.

Do these pads meet safety certifications?

Yes, they conform to the EN 14404 standard, which is the European safety regulation for kneepads used in professional environments.

Can I wash these in a machine?

Machine washing is not recommended as it may damage the gel core and strap mechanisms. We suggest hand washing with mild detergent.

Are the straps replaceable?

The straps are designed for durability, but they are not individually replaceable. Ensure proper storage to keep the hook and loop fasteners clean.

Can these be used on delicate flooring?

Yes, the exterior caps are designed to protect the knee, but if the surface is highly polished or easily scratched, perform a small test to ensure the cap material does not leave marks.

Troubleshooting

Kneepads slipping down during movement

Ensure the bottom neoprene strap is fastened securely below the knee joint. This 'anchor' strap is critical to preventing the pad from sliding downward.

Buckle feels loose

Check the elasticated strap tension. If it continues to loosen, ensure no fabric is bunched underneath the buckle mechanism.

Gel core feels hard in cold weather

Gel materials can firm up in freezing temperatures. Store the pads at room temperature before starting your shift to ensure the gel remains pliable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior pressure distribution from gel padding
  • Extra coverage via oversized protective caps
  • Secure fit with dual-fastening strap system
  • Durable construction suitable for professional trade use

Cons

  • Lower strap may require readjustment after prolonged physical activity
  • Bulky profile compared to slimline foam pads
  • Straps may cause irritation if worn directly against skin in hot conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Fitting: Place the pad over the knee. Fasten the bottom neoprene strap first, ensuring it sits securely just below the knee crease to provide an anchor point. Adjust the top elasticated strap using the quick-clip buckle until the fit feels stable.
  2. Compatibility: These pads are designed for use over standard work trousers. While they can be worn with shorts, ensure the skin is covered if working on abrasive surfaces to prevent chafing.
  3. Care: Wipe down the exterior caps with a damp cloth after use to remove debris or dried mortar. If the pads become heavily soiled, hand wash in warm water with mild detergent and air dry away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the gel and foam components.
