Leather Face Knee Pads – Neoprene and Leather, Pair
Leather Face Knee Pads – Neoprene and Leather, Pair
The RTC Leather Face Knee Pads are neoprene and leather kneeling pads with a non-marring leather face, for tile setters and fabricators working on their knees all day.
RTC builds them from premium-grade neoprene and leather with an ultra-soft neoprene cup, an adjustable front closure strap designed to eliminate pinching behind the knee, and a construction that is fully washable.
Key Features
- Premium-grade neoprene and leather construction
- Non-marring leather face — will not scuff finished tile or stone the way a hard plastic cap can
- Ultra-soft neoprene cup
- Adjustable front closure strap that eliminates pinch behind the knee
- Fully washable, so thinset and grout come back out
Who Is This For?
Tile setters, floor installers and fabricators kneeling on finished surfaces, where a hard capped pad would mark the work. Crews kneeling in slurry should pair them with a waterproof fabricator's apron.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will these mark a polished tile or stone floor?
The kneeling face is leather and RTC specifies it as non-marring, which is the reason to choose a leather-faced pad over a hard plastic capped pad when working on finished surfaces.
Can they be washed?
Yes — RTC states the pads are fully washable, which matters because neoprene otherwise holds thinset and grout dust.
Do they stop the strap digging in behind the knee?
The front closure strap is adjustable and RTC specifies it as eliminating pinch; the closure is at the front of the knee rather than in the crease behind it.
What else should I wear kneeling in grout slurry?
A waterproof apron keeps slurry off clothing while kneeling and leaning over the floor — the A. Bottini Fabricators Apron is the PVC/poly option in this catalogue.
