Description
The ProFlex 360 Hard Shell Hinged Knee Pads feature an ergonomic hinge design that is built to keep protection comfortably in place whether walking, crawling, or kneeling. The combination of a heavy-duty hard shell with a soft non-marring cap makes these pads versatile for protection on any indoor or outdoor surface—no matter how abrasive or delicate.
Unlike other knee pads of this style on the market, the free-moving hinge design enables smooth and full 180-degree extension of the pad when straightening the knee. Thick closed-cell foam padding provides supportive all-day comfort, while the extra-large rubber cap maximizes surface area to increase stability and minimise the risk of scratching or marking floorings such as tile or linoleum.
Wide elastic straps easily adjust for a custom fit on a variety of leg sizes and are designed to sit further apart on the thigh and calf to prevent uncomfortable binding. Tested to hold up to repetitive use on the toughest worksites, the durable locking buckles securely latch to keep these knee pads comfortably in place no matter which direction you move.
Ideal for all-day knee protection and comfort on any worksite, including construction, HVAC, flooring, landscaping, and more.
Designed for optimal tool storage and prevention of dropped objects, the one-handed cinch top enables convenient but secure access while at heights. A hi-vis orange ripstop lining makes it easy to find tools and small hardware. The exterior of this tool belt pouch features two tool loops for spud wrenches, bull pins, or screwdrivers, as well as two D-rings for attaching tool lanyards. It also includes a nickel-plated storm drain for ventilation.

Knee soreness is a common issue faced by many workers who engage in manual tasks such as lifting, pushing, and pulling. If not properly addressed, it can lead to more serious conditions such as knee injuries and chronic pain. To prevent knee soreness while performing manual tasks, it is important to follow some safety measures put in place for the worksite by SafeWork Australia here.
The Ergodyne range of knee pads and knee supports are designed to protect and support the knees while performing manual tasks such as kneeling, crawling, and heavy lifting. Knee pads and supports are often used by workers in construction, maintenance, and manufacturing jobs to reduce the risk of knee injuries and to relieve knee pain caused by repetitive motions or heavy lifting.

Across Australia and New Zealand, knee protection is crucial in physically demanding industries. According to SafeWork Australia, this is a major concern in those roles that require prolonged kneeling, squatting, crouching, and working in confined spaces or on uneven surfaces, which can significantly strain and injure the knees if appropriate protective measures are not taken. This stat might bring you to your knees, but according to a report, in terms of work-related injuries, the knee accounts for 13.2% of all musculoskeletal injuries in Australia. Find out more here.
