HardBite Felt Stud - 20-Pack

HardBite studs are specially designed traction devices that can be added to felt wading boots. They provide a strong grip on slippery surfaces, such as wet rocks and muddy riverbeds, ensuring you maintain stability while fishing. This enhanced grip helps prevent slips and falls, allowing you to focus on your fishing without worrying about your footing.

Welded carbide pellets are used in HardBite studs because carbide is an extremely hard material that offers superior durability and traction. The welding process securely attaches these pellets to the studs, ensuring they withstand the wear and tear of rugged fishing environments. This means you can rely on them for long-lasting performance, even in challenging conditions.

Zinc plating protects the screws from corrosion, which is especially important in wet environments like rivers and saltwater. By applying a layer of zinc, the screws are less likely to rust or deteriorate over time, extending the life of your HardBite studs. This means you can enjoy your fishing trips without worrying about the maintenance of your gear.

A Rockwell hardness rating of 45+ indicates that the screws used in HardBite studs are quite hard and resistant to wear and deformation. This level of hardness ensures that the screws can withstand the rigors of fishing in tough conditions, providing you with reliable performance and peace of mind that your gear will hold up during your adventures.

Felt wading boots are specialized footwear designed for anglers who need to walk in shallow water. The felt soles provide excellent traction on slippery surfaces, such as rocks and mud, which are common in fishing environments. Wearing felt wading boots helps you maintain stability and safety while navigating through water, making them an essential part of your fishing gear.

HardBite studs are specifically designed for use with felt wading boots. While they may fit other types of boots, their primary purpose is to enhance the traction of felt soles. For optimal performance and safety, it’s recommended to use HardBite studs with felt wading boots to ensure you get the best grip and stability while fishing.
