FAQs
Are these knee pads suitable for outdoor construction work?
While they offer protection, their primary design is for non-marking surfaces. For very rough outdoor sites, you might consider knee pads specifically designed for extreme durability and impact resistance on varied terrain.
How do I know if I've put them on the correct leg?
The knee pads are generally ambidextrous. Ensure the wider, cushioned part covers your kneecap and the straps are positioned comfortably for your anatomy.
What are the dimensions of the knee pads?
The dimensions are approximately 24cm x 16cm.
What materials are the knee pads made from?
They are made from TPR, EPE Foam, and Polyester.
Are these knee pads sold individually or as a pair?
This product is sold in pairs.
What standard do these knee pads comply with?
They are CE certified, UKCA marked, and comply with EN 14404:2004+A1:2010 Type 1 Level 1.
Can I machine wash these knee pads?
No, machine washing is not recommended. Clean by wiping with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Troubleshooting
Knee pads feel too loose or slip down.
Readjust the straps for a tighter fit. Ensure the straps are fully secured.
Knee pads feel uncomfortable after short use.
Ensure the foam cushioning is properly positioned over your knee. Adjust the tightness of the straps to a comfortable level, avoiding over-tightening which can restrict blood flow.
Outer shell appears scuffed.
Minor scuffs are normal wear and tear. For significant damage, inspect the pad for structural integrity. If compromised, replace the knee pads.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Protects floors from scratches and marks.
- Offers good grip and stability.
- Comfortable for prolonged use due to ergonomic design and cushioning.
- Provides adjustable and secure fitting.
- Durable construction for reliable protection.
Cons
- May be less suitable for extremely rough terrain where extreme durability is the sole focus.
- Sold in pairs, so purchasing single pads is not an option.
- The primary benefit is floor protection; very heavy-duty impact absorption might be prioritized in other specialized pads.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Simply slip the knee pads onto your knees, ensuring the wider part of the pad is over your kneecap. Adjust the straps for a snug, comfortable fit that does not restrict circulation. Ensure the straps are securely fastened.
Compatibility: These knee pads are designed to fit most users due to their adjustable straps. They are suitable for use with most work trousers. Their non-marking nature makes them compatible with a wide range of indoor floor surfaces, including wood, laminate, tile, and vinyl.
Care: To clean, wipe the outer shell with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. Allow the knee pads to air dry completely before storing. The breathable inner fabric can be spot-cleaned if necessary.
