Troubleshooting

Grips are slipping off

Ensure the analog sticks are clean and dry before application. Press down firmly on the grips after application to secure them. If slippage persists, check if the grips are correctly sized for the PS5 controller sticks.

Trigger Treadz are not sticking

Clean the trigger surface thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol and allow it to dry completely. Apply the Treadz firmly, holding pressure for a few seconds to ensure adhesion.

Reduced tactile feedback after application

This may be a matter of adjustment. Allow a few hours of gameplay to get accustomed to the new texture. Ensure the grips are not applied too thickly or unevenly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This pack is designed exclusively for the Sony PlayStation 5 DualSense controller. It is not compatible with other controller models or gaming systems.

Setup:

  1. Ensure your PS5 controller is clean and dry.
  2. Carefully align the thumb grips over the analog sticks. The silicone is flexible and should stretch slightly to fit.
  3. For Trigger Treadz, apply them to the L2 and R2 triggers, ensuring they are centered and adhere firmly.
