Dead On has risen again! We, the Dead On Tools team, have upgraded our tool rigs and pouches. The iconic DO21C framing hammer is as good as ever. The Annihilator wrecking bar - well, just look at it and you know it means business. The Exhumer nail puller, still the champ. Dead On tool-users don't check their personality when they punch the clock. Our products match that lifestyle, and stand out in a category of commodity products. The Dead On brand and skull logo are about to become icons for those end users. The Dead On Professional GEL Hard Cap Knee Pads are great for working on hard surface applications such as carpeting, tile, wood flooring, subfloor, or any general construction project that requires swivel or slide capabilities. The Easy-Swivel hard shell cap allows you to pivot on your knees without having to continually get up from your kneeling position. The Gel padding provides you with maximum comfort so those hard surfaces don't feel very hard and uncomfortable. Plus, they are lightweight and durable. The HDP98000 also features neoprene elastic straps for extra support and flexibility. The strap system is comprised of a neoprene bottom strap that tightens firmly for support, and an elastic top strap that holds the pad in place without causing discomfort. Both straps are adjustable and attach with a hook and loop closure.

This is advertised as knee pads that are great for wood flooring, but due to the hard caps I would not use it on wood flooring for fear of scratching them up. I used this on a tile surface and on concrete in the basement. This is better suited for rough surfaces like concrete and probably subfloors. I used this while trying to light my furnace pilot and for this surface I had no complaints.The plastic caps on the tile created a very slippery situation and I found myself gliding/ shifting a lot on the tile. When I used this on the concrete , it worked well. With these knee pads just make sure you have them on the proper way otherwise they will not fit securely and keep sliding. Have the arc part up and the area that is flat on the bottom half.
All in all I would not recommend these knee pads, I feel that the situations in which you can use them are very limited. There are not too many surfaces I would use them on, like tiles and wood flooring. The plastic caps are stationary and cannot be removed.

These gel filled hard cap knee pads are the BOMB!!!
I am 61 years old in 11 days. i have torchered my body for over 40 years!! Roofing, brick work, flooring, tile, base board and trim work, as well as buildinding decks! I never dreamed of wearing knee pads when i was young and dumb! By the time i was 40 years old my knees were shot!!
I strarted out wearing those soft pad ones like wrestlers wear. But they always bind, you have to stand readjust all the time. I then wore hard caps , but my knees hurt from them. So i used hard caps with padding, they worked ok.
Now i have these new gel hard caps. i had stopped doing things that i had to be on my knees, the last 6 years. So that cut into my income!! Now i can work again on my knees , thanks to these great knee pads.

Great product! Love the gel padding. Very well padded, but also very comfortable. With past knee pads, I always found them sliding down below the knees. This set of knee pads appears to have fixed that problem. The design is smart. There is a padded ridge that runs across the top of each knee pad. This ridged padding does a good job in holding the pads at the knees. The hard caps add additional protection. The straps are easy to use, durable, and grip tightly. Quality product.

These are the best knee pads I have seen. They are easy to put on, stay in place and are very comfortable.I'm am really happy with my choice. The straps are easy to fit and not be too tight. I've used other brands and these stay put and do not affect your mobility. The hard outer surface is great on any surface and makes spinning around very effortless.
Oh so comfy!! I got a bum knee, very tender. Have not been able to kneel in years. Now I can agai...
Oh so comfy!! I got a bum knee, very tender. Have not been able to kneel in years. Now I can again.
My knee has been hyper-sensitive to touch. I have been doing low-work by laying on my side or bent over a box, but this is awkward too.
I put these on and gingerly knelt down. Ah! No horrible pinch of pain. The gel inside really does support over a wide area without pressure-points. I started walking on my knees, this was comfortable also.
Looks well made. Sturdy material.
One thing, which can be good or bad: The "hard caps" are very slick. Little friction. This makes it easy to swivel or slide around the work zone. It also will not scuff fine floors. On the other hand the slipperiness means your knees can slide out from under you. Keep your balance. Do not try these knee-pads on a roof!! Pick pads with some soft tread on them.
The knee pads are fairly comfortable- at least as comfortable as you can be on your knees all day. However, the hard knee cap likes to slip on most roof surfaces. My old knee pads are much more likely to stay put when I"m kneeling on a roof.
I think these would be fine for most other kneeling work.
New from Bucket Boss are the NeoFlex lineNew from Bucket Boss are the NeoFlex line of kneepads. Feels lighter, but really it's just more flexible, more like a wrap than a pad you strap on. Traditional kneepads don't flex with you, they're basically a rigid foam sandwich. Neo-Flex starts with a flexible neoprene wrap and adds just enough padding to absorb the load where it counts. The NeoFlex Hard Shell Knee Pad by Bucket Boss offers an extra flexible, lightweight body that is constructed with durable neoprene. This hard cap knee pad is ideal for swiveling and sliding applications and is designed with an EVA foam pad, reducing weight for long-wearing comfort. The 2 strap system made of neoprene gives additional support and flexibility and attaches using hook & loop closures. Today, Bucket Boss carries over 100 different products that organize and hold tools in the strongest, most efficient ways. For 30 years, we have prided ourselves in creating durable products that can withstand many years of wear and tear.
