Due North® LT Industrial Winter Boot Crampons - Occasional Use on Snow and Ice

Due North® LT Industrial crampons are traction aids designed for occasional use on snow and ice. They offer a reliable solution for improving traction during light work in winter conditions, without the stiffness or weight of heavy-duty models.

Versatile, they fit most shoes, sneakers, ankle boots, and winter boots, making them a practical choice for workers, technicians, or individuals who need to work outdoors occasionally in winter.

Features of Ice Diamond crampons for occasional use

• Lightweight industrial model for occasional use
• Fits a wide variety of shoes
• Quick to put on without straps or buckles
• Ice Diamond™ tungsten carbide crampons
• Available in two sizes covering a wide range of shoe sizes

Properties of rubber and tungsten carbide crampons

These anti-slip soles are made of high-strength flexible rubber, capable of maintaining its properties even at temperatures as low as -40°C. The one-piece design stretches to fit the shoe and stays securely in place while walking.

The improved toe cage promotes better forefoot thrust and increases lateral grip. Grip on ice is provided by Ice Diamond™ tungsten carbide spikes, evenly distributed to provide 360° protection:

• 2 spikes under the heel
• 4 spikes under the front of the foot

Tungsten carbide is an extremely durable and corrosion-resistant material, eliminating the risk of rust.

Applications of anti-slip crampons for occasional winter use

These crampons are recommended for:

• Occasional outdoor work in winter
• Light work on icy surfaces
• Short trips on snow or ice
• Users looking for a solution between the economical model and the intensive model

They reduce the risk of slipping, but it is important to remember that vigilance remains essential even with traction aids.

Size guide (approximate)

For a good fit:

• add 1 size for regular boots
• add 2 sizes for insulated boots

For heavy-duty work boots or very large sizes, choose more robust models such as VGET-XL or VGICE-XL.

Restrictions on crampons for winter boots without high heels, such as Acton®

• Do not use with high-heeled boots
• Not designed for climbing or rocky terrain
• Do not use on smooth or polished indoor surfaces
• Do not wear when climbing ladders or step ladders.

Care and lifespan of the Due North® Industrial LT anti-slip cleat

Avoid solvents that could damage the rubber. Occasional cleaning with warm water and mild soap is sufficient.

No drying is required after use: tungsten carbide crampons do not rust.

This model offers a very long service life for occasional use. Longevity will depend mainly on frequency of use and the surfaces walked on.

FAQ - Due North® LT Industrial Studs for Occasional Use

1. Who are LT Industrial studs designed for?

This model is designed for workers and individuals who occasionally need better traction on snow and ice. It is ideal for occasional use, short trips, and light work in winter conditions.

2. What is the difference between this model and the economy crampons?

Unlike economy models, LT Industrial crampons are equipped with Ice Diamond™ tungsten carbide spikes, a much more durable and wear-resistant material. They therefore offer greater longevity and more consistent grip, while remaining lighter and simpler than intensive models.

3. Can these cleats be used on different types of shoes?

Yes. Their flexible and stretchy design allows them to be used on a wide range of shoes, including sneakers, ankle boots, and winter boots. However, they are designed for flat-heeled shoes and are not suitable for high-heeled boots.

4. Should crampons be removed when entering indoor areas?

Yes. As with any traction aid, it is recommended that crampons be removed on smooth or polished indoor surfaces to avoid the risk of slipping or damaging the surfaces.

5. Do crampons require special maintenance?

Maintenance is minimal. Avoid solvents and opt for occasional cleaning with warm water and mild soap. Tungsten carbide crampons do not rust, which reduces maintenance requirements after use.
