Product Information

Full details

The Karakal PU Hockey Grip is an ideal upgrade for hockey players of all skill levels who need improved stick handling and vibration dampening. This premium replacement grip features a signature super-tacky PU surface that ensures a secure, non-slip hold in wet or humid conditions. While the extra-long and wide profile provides excellent coverage for standard sticks, users should note that the thicker, cushioned design may slightly increase the handle diameter, which some players may find takes a brief adjustment period to get used to.

FAQs

Is this grip suitable for field hockey sticks?

Yes, the Karakal PU Hockey Grip is designed to fit standard hockey stick handles effectively.

Does the grip come with adhesive?

Yes, the grip features a self-adhesive backing for easy and secure installation.

How often should I replace the grip?

Replacement frequency depends on your playing volume, but you should replace it when the surface loses its tackiness or shows signs of thinning.

Can I use this over an existing grip?

It is recommended to remove the old grip first to ensure a proper, consistent diameter and to prevent the handle from becoming too thick.

Does it work in rainy conditions?

Yes, the highly absorbent nature of the material is specifically engineered to maintain a secure hold in wet or sweaty conditions.

Troubleshooting

Grip feels slippery after use

Clean the surface with a damp cloth to remove accumulated salt and sweat residue.

Grip is peeling at the edges

Ensure the wrap overlap is sufficient and finish with an appropriate electrical or friction tape at the top to secure the end.

Grip feels too thick

Apply with a slightly wider overlap during the wrapping process to reduce the number of layers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent non-slip traction in all weather conditions
  • Provides significant vibration reduction for comfort
  • Easy application process with included adhesive backing
  • Extra-long length ensures full coverage for any stick size

Cons

  • Increased handle thickness may feel bulky to some players
  • Requires careful wrapping to avoid bunching
  • Tacky surface may attract debris if not stored properly

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the grip, first remove the old, worn-out grip and clean the stick shaft of any residue. Peel the protective film from the adhesive backing and wrap the grip spirally up the handle, maintaining even tension. Ensure an overlap of approximately 3-5mm for a secure fit. For care, avoid leaving the stick in direct sunlight or extreme heat for prolonged periods, as this can degrade the PU material and reduce its tackiness. Wipe the grip down with a slightly damp cloth after muddy or wet games to maintain its absorbent properties.
