Nordic Walking Pole Pads FAQs

What do Nordic walking pole pads do?

Nordic walking pole pads cover the metal spikes when you walk on pavements, tarmac and other firm surfaces. Their rubber contact reduces noise while helping the poles push against hard ground without slipping as easily. ... The current category contains one Newfeel product developed specifically for this purpose. Its shaped profile supports the backward pole push rather than acting only as a protective cap. Each pack contains two Newfeel rubber tips for Nordic walking poles, covering both poles used in the activity. Pro tip: remove the rubber pads before moving onto softer natural ground where the exposed metal spikes can provide more suitable contact and propulsion.


When should you use rubber tips for walking poles?

Use rubber pads on firm surfaces such as pavements, paved park routes and dry tarmac. Bare metal spikes can be noisy on these surfaces and may not create the same controlled contact during the backward arm movement. On soil, grass or softer trails, removing the pads allows the spikes to enter the ground and support propulsion more effectively. Carry the pads in a secure pocket when your route alternates between surfaces. The wider selection of Nordic walking accessories can help you organise replacement parts and other equipment. Stop before fitting or removing the pads rather than trying to change them while walking.


How do you fit Nordic walking rubber caps correctly?

Push each cap firmly over the pole's metal tip until it sits securely and does not rotate easily. The Newfeel pad has a clear FRONT marking that shows its correct direction. Position this marking towards the front so the angled tread meets the ground properly when the pole is planted behind you. Incorrect orientation can reduce the useful contact area and make the pole feel less stable during the push. Check the cap before every session and replace it with suitable Nordic walking pole tips when the spike becomes worn. Pro tip: pull each pad by hand after fitting it to confirm that it will not detach during repeated contact with the ground.


Do Nordic walking pole pads fit every pole?

The Newfeel rubber pads have a 16 mm opening and are made to fit many Nordic walking poles, but compatibility should still be checked before purchase. Pole-tip shapes and diameters can vary between models and brands, so a cap that is too loose may fall off while one that is too tight may not seat fully. Measure the relevant part of the pole or check the manufacturer's compatibility information. Review the wider Nordic walking selection when coordinating poles, replacement parts and walking equipment. A secure fit should hold the pad in place without damaging the shaft or requiring excessive force whenever you change surfaces.
