Distel Spurs Carbon Classic

The Distel Carbon tree climbing spikes are the ultimate tool for professional arborists and the result of years of consistent development. This premium product is designed for those who value lightness, comfort, and durability. Developed with an innovative material mix, the shaft is made entirely of high-strength carbon, effortlessly withstanding extreme stresses while ensuring long-term durability. The newly developed composite plastic shell is now even lighter and virtually indestructible, making these spikes perfect for the tough demands of everyday tree care.

The Distel Carbon equipped with an optimized comfort pad that provides extensive support for your shins and calves. A 50% larger padding surface compared to the classic pad ensures even pressure distribution and, thanks to its grid structure, perfectly adapts to your leg. This allows for comfortable work even during extended use.

The lower classic straps are made from BioThane material and are manufactured in the USA by Weaver. These straps are extremely durable, waterproof, robust, and highly resistant to resin and sawdust, easily withstanding the daily demands of tree care. This ensures the climbing spur fits securely without any play, while the 105 mm wide upper VELCRO strap simultaneously provides optimal pressure distribution. The adjustable spur shells allow you to customize the height of the climbing spurs, ensuring an optimal fit for your leg length.

During longer tasks, you’ll benefit from the ergonomically optimized shape and versatile adjustment options. The stirrup is angled and positioned forward to provide excellent ergonomics and support natural movement. With a width of 45 mm, it also offers optimal support.

The walking surface is equipped with Vibram rubber soles, which not only protect the carbon surface but also provide excellent grip, whether you're standing on branches or taking a few steps on the ground. The PTFE-coated spikes make it easier to release from the wood, allowing you to work with less effort and climb more comfortably.

Overall, the Distel Carbon tree climbing spikes offer the perfect combination of lightness, stability, and wearing comfort—ideal for professional use in tree care.
Made in Germany, Distel spurs have been renowned for their quality and durability for many years and are the gold standard when it comes to tree climbing spurs.

You also have the option of choosing between different spike lengths:

Short gaff is ideal for trees with thin bark. It easily penetrates hard and dry wood. Gaff height: 30 mm, gaff length: 31 mm, maximum load capacity: 150 kg.

Medium gaff is the perfect balance between the short and long gaff. Its significantly blunter shape and wider base reduce sinking into the wood when standing for extended periods and make it easier to remove the gaff without affecting penetration efficiency. Gaff height: 42 mm, gaff length: 44 mm, maximum load capacity: 150 kg.

Long gaff is specialized for trees with thick bark. The longer gaff ensures a firm grip. Gaff height: 48 mm, gaff length: 57 mm, maximum load capacity: 130 kg.
