Snickers D3O® Lite Craftsmen Kneepads 9112

High-tech kneepads featuring advanced knee protection with enhanced impact protection.

Boasting an EN 14404 Type 2 Level 1 rating, the pads have been specifically designed for frequent kneeling in mobile work environments, guarding against pebbles and various debris on the floor.

D3O® LITE material offers impact protection and shock absorption, while a curved, lightweight construction paired with a ventilating design ensures the kneepads are comfortable and easy to wear. In addition, a soft interior conforms to the knee, keeping the kneepads in place and distributing the pressure evenly while kneeling.

D3O® has patented a unique polymer composite that contains a chemically engineered dilatant so that it functions as an energy absorber. The material’s molecules flow freely in standard conditions, but on impact, they lock together to absorb and disperse energy, before instantly returning to their flexible state. This unique characteristic provides enhanced protection, while providing a versatile and flexible material that can be manufactured for a host of impact protective applications. Note: D3O® does not ”go hard”.
