DETAILED DESCRIPTION
What you'll feel
You'll feel the difference underfoot instantly. Your traction pad becomes a precise, stable platform for your straps. The flexible nylon pad follows the contours of your deck, creating a solid base underfoot for a more direct and responsive feel. The low-profile M6 stainless steel insert is tough enough to handle all the load and torque from aggressive riding.
Sizes and how to choose
This product comes as a set of 2 and is designed for use with M6 footstrap screws. If you have an AK Traction pad, these inserts stick directly onto the area where you'd mount a footstrap. Before you apply them, make sure the surface is clean, dry, and completely free of wax to ensure a solid bond with the 3M adhesive.
Construction and materials
The base features an ultra-thin M6 stainless steel threaded insert embedded in a flexible nylon contact pad. A high-strength 3M adhesive creates a powerful bond with your board's deck. This design keeps the profile low and unobtrusive while providing the reliability of a mechanical stainless steel insert, all without adding any significant thickness.
Installation and On-water behaviour
Apply to a clean, degreased surface. Press the pad down firmly and allow it to cure for the time recommended by 3M. Once set, the M6 insert provides a rock-solid anchor for your footstraps. On the water, you'll get a more direct connection to your board without adding any unwanted flex to the deck.
