Ergodyne 16785 Strap-on Ice Cleat Size 5 to 6.5

Product Description

The ERGODYNE 16785 is a strap-on ice cleat designed to add stud traction to existing footwear in cold-weather and icy work conditions. Constructed from rubber, the cleat slips on using a pull-on attachment method, requiring no tools for installation or removal. It fits shoe sizes 5 to 6.5 and is built for unisex use, making it a practical addition to any field worker's winter gear kit. The rubber construction flexes with the sole of the boot, keeping studs in consistent contact with the walking surface across uneven terrain. Weighing just 0.34 pounds, it adds negligible load while significantly improving footing on packed snow and ice.

This cleat is suited for outdoor trade work where icy surfaces create slip hazards — utility maintenance, rooftop HVAC service in winter months, exterior plumbing work, or general contractor site work in cold climates. The pull-on design allows workers to quickly attach or remove the cleat when transitioning between icy outdoor surfaces and indoor work areas. It is sized for smaller footwear in the size 5 to 6.5 range and is stated to fit most work boots.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools — stretch the rubber cleat over the toe and heel of the boot using the pull-on attachment method. Inspect the cleat and studs before each use for wear or damage, particularly after use on abrasive surfaces such as concrete or asphalt. Remove cleats before walking on smooth indoor flooring to avoid surface damage and unintended slip hazards. No special trade license is required to use this product, but employers should reference applicable OSHA walking-working surface standards when incorporating traction devices into their winter PPE program.
