About This Product
RUBI Gel Knee Pads for Tile Installation
RUBI Gel Comfort Knee Pads combine flexible exterior protection with soft internal cushioning for professional tile installers who spend extended periods kneeling. Silicone gel, EVA foam, and PVC reinforcement work together to cushion and stabilize the knees while protecting against impacts and discomfort from hard, uneven floors.
Silicone Gel and EVA Foam Cushioning
Silicone gel helps cushion and stabilize the knee, while EVA foam provides a soft internal layer that adapts to the wearer. This ergonomic combination supports comfort during prolonged kneeling and helps limit excessive strain on the ligaments and tendons during repetitive floor-level movement.
Flexible Protection on Hard and Uneven Floors
The flexible PVC outer reinforcement adapts to irregularities in the working surface while following the movements required during tile installation. This protective exterior helps shield the knees from knocks and discomfort without limiting the natural changes in position common during floor-level work.
Secure Dual-Band Fit for Extended Wear
Two extra-wide neoprene bands provide upper and lower fastening to help keep the RUBI Knee Pads securely positioned. Elastic polyester latex and adjustable Velcro closures allow a comfortable fit and quick fastening, supporting the extended wear required during professional tile installation.
