Comments about Black Diamond Trekking Pole Tip Protectors/Walking Tips - Pair:

I was worried that after miles of striking the ground these would be hard to remove from our trekking poles, but with just a little wiggling they came right off. They kept a good grip on asphalt, rock, and concrete. The only time they slipped was on hard-packed earth.

Comments about Black Diamond Trekking Pole Tip Protectors/Walking Tips - Pair:

I bought these for my Black Diamond trekking poles. They fit well and wear much better than the REI tip protectors. I use them almost daily for walks on paved streets and sidewalks.

Protects floors; might satisfy TSA?

Comments about Black Diamond Trekking Pole Tip Protectors/Walking Tips - Pair:

These BD tips (3.5cm long) seem to fit snugly on Leki poles, and Leki rubber tips (4.5cm) also fit BD poles (Trail, Compact, Ergo Cork). However, BD tips cost 45% less. I've yet to use them on a trail (hence tentative 4 stars), but they certainly eliminate the carbide tip 'clatter' on neighborhood streets. And since I find that poles are useful aids during indoors winter stretching/balance exercises, the rubber tips prevent 'unthinking' damage to hardwood floors! As solid tip covers, I'm also hoping they may allow poles (sections) to be transported within carry-on luggage through airport TSA screening.

To simply protect pole tips or section ends from wearing holes in luggage or backpack fabric, or scratching something or someone, there's no need to buy special 'tip protectors'. Instead, buy 30 cents of ½" diameter clear vinyl tubing; cut 2" pieces to slip over carbide tip and/or plastic inner section guide. Fits both BD and Leki.
