Super Traction SafeTipTM Features:
The Super Traction SafeTipTM provides a wide and continuous range of penetration depth adjustment:
The range of penetration adjustment is the widest we know of in any tactical walking cane or crutch traction attachment. The wide penetration adjustment range allows easy handling of a wide range of snow, ice, mud and gravel-covered surfaces. It also allows for "no kidding around" self-defense, when circumstances warrant it.
Speed of penetration depth adjustment:
The tactical traction spike can be placed at any desired penetration depth and securely locked down in three to four seconds.
Ease of penetration depth adjustment:
The tactical spike clamp extension locking device is operated by means of a large “beaver tail” handle. This allows tactcial traction spike unlocking, re-positioning and secure re-locking to be done very quickly and reliably with gloved or mittened hands.
Hands with substantially reduced strength and dexterity can easily operate the Super Traction SafeTipTM enhanced all-terain traction system.
Freedom from losing parts during use:
During tactical traction spike un-locking, moving and re-locking, no system components are detached from the device assembly. No cold/wet/muddy parts need to be removed and put in your pocket, in order to deploy or retract a tactical traction spike tip.
The Super Traction SafeTipTM hardware is corrosion resistant:
The Super Traction SafeTipTM connector body is 3D printed using a UV light and water-resistant polymer plastic. The assembly hardware is made from zinc-plated steel. The tactical traction spike is hard-enamel painted.
The Super Traction SafeTipTM provides for convenient air travel:
The Super Traction SafeTipTM attachment is easy to travel with. Using a screwdriver, the Model 1 and Model 2 can be removed from the walking aid entirely ... or ... just the spike can be demounted.
The Super Traction SafeTipTM attachment components can be placed in checked baggage for air travel and the cane kept in hand for boarding. At the destination, the Super Traction SafeTipTM system can be quickly re-installed.

The Super Traction SafeTipTM Enables Self-Defense
The ability to very quickly extend the steel traction tip several inches beyond the rubber tip enables effective use of a walking cane or crutch as a short spear, when called upon in self-defense situations.
