About the Gel and Rubber Shell Knee Pads

  • Gum rubber shell a tough outer shell that you can kneel and shift on all day.
  • Gel padding cushions your knee against hard and uneven surfaces as you work.
  • Adjustable strap lets you set the fit snug or loose over your pants.
  • Black and yellow easy to spot in a truck bed or a cluttered garage.

Kneeling work comes in many forms: a new floor, a deck board, a run of baseboard. These pads give you a rubber shell to kneel on and gel to cushion the knee. You move from spot to spot without hunting for a folded towel or a piece of cardboard to kneel on.

The shell is gum rubber, and the padding inside is gel. An adjustable strap holds each pad on, and you set it tighter or looser to suit your pants and your leg. The pads come in black and yellow. They work across a range of projects, indoors and out.

These are a general-purpose pair with a single strap on each pad. If you install flooring for a living, the Gel Stabilizer Knee Pads add a wide duck-bill cap and split straps. For finished floors you must not scratch, choose the Non-Marring Knee Pads.

Use and care

  • Hose mud and grit off the rubber shell and let the pads dry before storage.
  • Keep the pads out of direct sun between jobs, since heat ages rubber.
  • Loosen the strap before storage so it does not stretch out of shape.

    Great Product

    These work great for use around the house. Not sure they would hold up for daily professional use. I find them extremely comfortable and they protect my knees well and I'm nearly 300 pounds.I wore out the first pair and was glad to find these as a replacement as I had no luck with others.

    Used to be good pads

    This product used to hold up to the wear and tear of roofing. Besides blowing the gels out in the pads, the stiches have been coming apart. I used to have problems with the flaps stretching out then I would have to buy a new pair but by then the outside pad was pretty beat up. Felt like I got my money's worth. But now the stiches break right away, and I have to throw them out which hurts cause the knee pads still look knew. And at $40 that a pricey knee pad. So bottom line, two yrs ago it was a great pad and only $24 but now at $40 and a couple weeks of use.. No Thanks

    Terrible

    The top of the cushion broke down in less then an hour of doing my floor. This was the third pair of this brand I have bought but the first of this style. The other style didn't last long but way better than these. This was the worst waste of money. I will never buy anything from them again.

Gel and Rubber Shell Knee Pads: questions

Are these for home or pro use?

They are made for a range of projects and places. If you kneel on hard floors all day, look at our Gel Stabilizer Knee Pads, which add a wide duck-bill cap.

How do I adjust the fit?

Each pad has an adjustable strap. Put the pad on over your pants, center it on the knee, then pull the strap until the pad stays put when you stand up.
